    I'm frankly surprised that DirecTV isn't plugging in promos during the changeovers. I'm watching the Braves-Brewers game now via Extra Innings on Peachtree TV. Peachtree has no commercials, but we get DirecTV promos between innings.

    But none of the extra feeds are in HD.

    Sharapova is in trouble. She dropped the first set 6-2, but she is up a break in the second.

    She just double-faulted for 2 all in the second. Back on serve.

    She's my new least favorite player now that Henin has retired. I hope she loses!

    Aha. If I had discovered it in my man-cave, I wouldn't have been as impressed.

    Sharapova now down a break, and grunting like a pig.

    She came right back, though, so now she will be serving with the chance to tie the set at 4.

    Her opponent is close to breaking her back.

    Could both 3 seeds be gone this early? Fantastic :D

    Yep. And James Blake is gone, too. Big day for upsets. I'm just stunned Sharapova lost in straight sets.

    In women's tennis, the upsets seem to be in straight sets.

    Easy day for Andy Murray, through in straight sets against Xavier Malisse.

    Tommy Haas is next.
