I just start giggling when Soria enters the game. You're pretty much guaranteed to see at least one batter end up looking like a fat guy striking out in a slow-pitch softball game.

Greinke was extremely impressive. He makes it look SO easy. I especially enjoyed the two exchanges between Greinke and Carlos Quentin. In the first at-bat, Greinke threw a fastball high and tight to push Quentin off the plate. Quentin gave Greinke a 'do you know who you're throwing at?' look. Very next at-bat, Greinke threw a first ball fastball that hit Quentin right in the back. Greinke turned with no emotion and headed back to the rosin bag while Quentin glared at him. Business as usual.
