Holy Crap

You can now add Mitch Talbot to the list of pitchers who have allowed a home run to Miguel Cairo since April 2006. Kevin Correia was getting pretty lonely.

One of the toughest things to do as a pitcher is learn to separate processes from results. Sometimes a bad pitch can lead to a good result because you got lucky, or a good pitch can lead to a bad result because the hitter did a nice job, and it can be really hard to tell when you made a mistake. Other times it's easy to tell.

That homer was a fucking bomb and I was talking about it all day yesterday.
Steroids
It was easily the longest homer of the three.
Phillies have Jake Woods?
If you're a former Mariner you're pretty much guaranteed to be a Philly or a Royal
John Mayberry

Did anybody else catch the significance of that name in the box score?

Depends on what you mean.

In this case, we’re referring to John Mayberry, Jr, a player drafted by the M’s once but he didn’t sign. He was drafted by Texas a couple of years later (traded to Philadelphia late last year).

Him being a former Spokane Indian?
Miguel Cairo is a Phillies?

The Phillies really want 2008 to look like a miracle year.

Holy pluraity batman!
