Felix will not be back for a while yet

AFTERNOON NEWS

Lots of news (all pale in comparison to UCI's NCAA title of course) from this Saturday, including the not-so-surprising announcement Felix Hernandez's next start has been pushed back again, this time until May 15.

The M's lost 8-1 Saturday, though Jeff Weaver threw better. He just didn't throw anywhere near as well as the Yankees' Chien-Ming Wang, who took a perfect game into the eighth.

• The Kentucky Derby proved to be not-exactly-the-fastest two minutes in sports, as juvenile champion Street Sense rallied to win.

• Eastern played its spring game, and you can read about it on Dave Trimmer's blog and here.
