Why on earth is the defense of Thermopylae the metaphor our bullpen has embraced?
Come to think of it, it works well: Aardsma going out against the Angels for the fourth time in four games was brave and courageous and had about as much a chance of success as the 300 against the Persians (except there’s no Athenians equivalent around for us to win the Battle of Salamis afterwards). :(
So All Night with Jason Smith mentioned the Ichiro hitting streak last night.
It was Mike Salk in for Smith. However, he preceded the hitting streak info with saying that noone in Seattle likes Ichiro and he’s the most polarizing figure in Seattle. Normally I don’t care what the national media says about us but the guy has a show in Seattle on 710 and now the country thinks we all hate our best player.
He’s actually pretty good. Sometimes he goes off on rants I don’t really agree with, and he can be kind of an ass to people who disagree with him but he’s not terrible.
Just ignore radio hosts WRT the Mariners…I had the “pleasure” of hearing on KJR that Griffey had “earned” the right to play this year, regardless of if it would hinder the progress of, you know, people we’ll use in the future…COUGH JeffClement COUGH
While his swing is fine mechanically, he doesn’t square balls up well at all; he pushes his hands at the ball instead of the bat, so he swings and misses often and really doesn’t want the ball inside. When he does square one up, he has some power and puts good backspin on the ball, so there’s hope, but the team that drafts him is going to have to teach him how to hit. If he hits just a little, he’s a big-league backup, and of course any more offense gives him a chance to be a regular.
We're up 5-0
Despite being 2-13 with RISP>..
skywaker9 - June 2, 2009
THIS TEAM IS THE WORSTTTTTTTTTT
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
Heh.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
This team is totally unstreaky.
Bring back 2007.
ThundaPC - June 2, 2009
Ichiro is being streaky.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
At least our pythag wasn't harmed by our little losing streak
Robert - June 2, 2009
I know I go to sleep every night comforted that our pythag is ok
Nate Dogg - June 2, 2009
I'm so sorry to hear you had a stroke
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Not a big deal really, the left side is the less important side
Nate Dogg - June 2, 2009
Is a tea party a party with multiple tea bags?
Poochie - June 2, 2009
I see you only close the threads so that you can have the very last word eh Jeff?
Touche.
Zwakamatsu - June 2, 2009
This is why Matthew is clearly the better mod.
Robert - June 2, 2009
I hate reopening old game threads
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
I posted a giant clown Jeff in the September 11th GT a week after the game.
Robert - June 2, 2009
It was deleted immediately
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
No it was not
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
It was deleted after two minutes
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
There was a 75 comment ST where I panicked, NOLA and Fogel laughed at me and eventually Graham came in and fixed it.
Robert - June 2, 2009
You posted it at 8:23 and it was deleted at 8:25
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Philly homers: Ibanez, Bench Elf
Paytheline - June 2, 2009
Dobbs?
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Oh yeah.
Backing the debut of one of the finest baseball names in ages: Antonio Bastardo.
Paytheline - June 2, 2009
So if new Fogel is the worst does that mean Poochie is back in the ROY lead?
Poochie - June 2, 2009
2nd worst!
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
No that would be Robert
Poochie - June 2, 2009
I feel like I would have to be among the worst
gregrabble - June 2, 2009
Would you like a cookie to make you feel better?
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Don't patronize me. I know where I stand.
gregrabble - June 2, 2009
No, seriously, do you want a cookie? I have several in my van.
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
You lead the way!
gregrabble - June 2, 2009
You're not as fun as Coach.
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
We should probably hold some sort of election
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Hold some sort of erection?
Poochie - June 2, 2009
Penises, we get it, this is a Mariners blog
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
I am convinced that this community can not go through an entire game thread without making a penis joke
JLC - June 2, 2009
I only want to make penis jokes about Jeff's penis because they make everyone uncomfortable.
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
Almost.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Not since Jeff opened that can of worms
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
Guess what I opened it with
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
;)
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Your can opener?
Poochie - June 2, 2009
Ow what the fuck
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
I applaud your flexibility and coordination and pain tolerance
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
Your nuts?
Zwakamatsu - June 2, 2009
AGH
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Why should people vote for the incumbents?
Robert - June 2, 2009
Is there a Miss Congeniality?
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Coming soon - Miss Lookout Landing 2009
James F'n X - June 2, 2009
We tried to make a calendar but no one would pose. :-/
Poochie - June 2, 2009
No one asked me. :(
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Go for it, RC.
Decatur - June 2, 2009
My calendar would be sad. Me holding a pretzel? Not a big seller.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
You smiling holding a pretzel in the shape of a <3 would be adorable.
Not that I know what you look like, but there’s no way it could not be.
Decatur - June 2, 2009
Hmmmm.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Well that was dumb of us
Poochie - June 2, 2009
There's still seven months to go.
How do you feel about cheesecake?
James F'n X - June 2, 2009
Trick question.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
What flavor?
msb - June 2, 2009
NSFGT
James F'n X - June 2, 2009
HA
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Is this like Coke and New Coke?
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Poochie is a cheap trick.
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
If we have a ROY and MVP can we have a satirical award that we give to the worst poster that's been banned this year?
Robert - June 2, 2009
What if the worst poster hasn't been banned ?
Poochie - June 2, 2009
I believe this 100%
Robert - June 2, 2009
;)
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
I'm still here somehow
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
Your Coach sonnet was fantastic.
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Most of them have apologized and given a second chance.....
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Aw
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Please don't blow it Ms
Because if anyone will, its this team….
skywaker9 - June 2, 2009
Bedard hit 100 pitches.
russak - June 2, 2009
Boy, his arms must be tired.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Bad things happen after 100 pitches.
Time for Sean White.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Do you think anyone would notice if we kidnapped Wieters and left Jakubauskas in his place?
Graham MacAree - June 2, 2009
I don't see what special WIeters. Practically another Rob Johnson with better defense.
russak - June 2, 2009
Obviously. And Rob's batting average is 20 points higher.
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Something like that....
Brian Floyd - June 2, 2009
I think the rest of baseball would
Robert - June 2, 2009
You Brits are much better at intrigue than we Yanks are.
Decatur - June 2, 2009
Whenever one of our pitchers gets to a 1-2 or an 0-2 count I worry
Graham MacAree - June 2, 2009
Get Bedard out!
jimmylauderdale - June 2, 2009
Go get him Waga..
skywaker9 - June 2, 2009
I am surprised that FSN crashed just now
Poochie - June 2, 2009
The high fastball approach doesn't seem to be working
gregrabble - June 2, 2009
Why is he still in?
Graham MacAree - June 2, 2009
Our manager is an idiot...
skywaker9 - June 2, 2009
They think he'll have higher trade value if he pitches 7?
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Needs to go seven in order to be a bonafide ace someone would trade for
Poochie - June 2, 2009
Its cool, leave him out there. He doesn't seem to be tired at all
Brian Floyd - June 2, 2009

Wrong thread retard
Graham deleted it to cover up for me.
Robert - June 2, 2009
I posted this because I enjoyed it
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
I actively make the community better
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
Agreed
Poochie - June 2, 2009
This is just proof that you ain't nothin but a crab nigga
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
rec'd for hate speech
Poochie - June 2, 2009
The "Worst September 11th ever" comment is still good
Brian Floyd - June 2, 2009
rec'd!
Poochie - June 2, 2009
JI was a genius
Poochie - June 2, 2009
I love that Fogel's pun has gone from 4 to 7 recs
Poochie - June 2, 2009
It's like there is a secret society that determines these things.
Robert - June 2, 2009
I didn't rec it at the time because I was banned for a LaHair pun like the day before
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
That was a month before
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
They're like posthumous recs
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
This will be 112.
Holy crap.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Whoops
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
No Erik! No!
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Its too late....
For our manager to prove he’s not an idiot…
skywaker9 - June 2, 2009
Is anyone else thinking "time for the Mariner bullpen to be hilarious"?
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
I'm so confused.
Softy told me Bedard only ever pitches 5 innings.
msb - June 2, 2009
How many of the 3 Bedard is responsible for will score?
jimmylauderdale - June 2, 2009
Heh
MLB gameday says “Sean White” replaces “Sean White”
skywaker9 - June 2, 2009
Oops
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Gameday says Sean White replaces Sean White
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Clearly Sean White is irreplaceable
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
WHITE WHITE BABY!
Get them out, white white baby…
skywaker9 - June 2, 2009
What do you have against black babies?
Eyebrows - June 2, 2009
They aren't Kill The Other Team's Rally Fries.
Blowers is a retard. I didn’t care to begin with but it’s starting to get on my nerves.
Zwakamatsu - June 2, 2009
Yippie for rally fries when we're ahead and on defence.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
well, they did hand them out before the inning started ...
msb - June 2, 2009
Scott double play...
Get it done, White!
jimmylauderdale - June 2, 2009
Well, no, but we still get an out.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
That was the worst warning ever.
Poochie - June 2, 2009
I enjoyed that.
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
GAHHHHHHHH
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Luke Scott is a large young man,
msb - June 2, 2009
Not as large as Russell.
Zwakamatsu - June 2, 2009
With 11 home runs.
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
On MLB-tv, White is starting his warmups.
Paytheline - June 2, 2009
Apparently you have to turn off Nexdef or it'll be 5 minutes behind
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
They should have flagged game thread incompatibility
Paytheline - June 2, 2009
Stop that you can of paste
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Good
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Nice job, Sean.
Zwakamatsu - June 2, 2009
Out of the jam, very nice.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
This White guy is pretty good.
ThundaPC - June 2, 2009

russak - June 2, 2009
Things never posted on the big board at Safeco Field?
mark sobba - June 2, 2009
Why on earth is the defense of Thermopylae the metaphor our bullpen has embraced?
Come to think of it, it works well: Aardsma going out against the Angels for the fourth time in four games was brave and courageous and had about as much a chance of success as the 300 against the Persians (except there’s no Athenians equivalent around for us to win the Battle of Salamis afterwards). :(
Decatur - June 2, 2009
I just heard the bare bones of that Sims comment about Wettland and the 300 ....
msb - June 2, 2009
Another Griffey double!
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Griffey is finished
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Needs more siren
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Also, why is the siren not on the sidebar?
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
I haven't updated the sidebar in months
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
We use the DP T-Rex all the time
Poochie - June 2, 2009
That would be why, then, I guess.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Also it's stolen and not really our image
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
The Griffey spin however is 100% LL
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Yes, that is, for sure.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
I noticed that it's the [ZOMG NO POLITICS] Siren.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
It's not fair use?
Decatur - June 2, 2009
Needs more crazy Zduriencik Fett gif
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
And fireworks.
Decatur - June 2, 2009
2 doubles?
Well color me surprised
Brian Floyd - June 2, 2009
Hmmmmm...... If surprised were a color what color would it be?
russak - June 2, 2009
Shocking pink?
rickpo - June 2, 2009
Our offense is pretty above average based on tonight
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
Yep that was an excellent job on a 2-2 count
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Lopez swings at a ball to make an out
That means “nice job” in Mike Blowers speak
Craig Powers - June 2, 2009
Ok, so he did get the runner over.
But he took a hack a ball 3 (at head level) to do it. Bad Lopez.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Time for Rally Fries!
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Jose Lopez does not deserve a high five for swinging at a ball at his eyes.
Not that his teammates shouldn’t high five him, but Blowers shouldn’t be a teammate in the booth – he should be an analyst.
Decatur - June 2, 2009
Also, people should work out all of their differences and grievances peacefully and with mutual respect.
Decatur - June 2, 2009
Ha Bedard smiled then realized he was on camera then stopped.
Slurvey - June 2, 2009
.
msb - June 2, 2009
Oh God, it's like the sun exploded into french fries.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
And you got three different dipping sauces!
mark sobba - June 2, 2009
YES
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Unfortunately the sun is gone and we are all dead
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
But at least your selfish ass got your french fries
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Mmmmm.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Yum.
French fries.
msb - June 2, 2009
That third dipping sauce was the best one, wasn't it?
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
Tartar.
msb - June 2, 2009
Tangy.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
You expect the first two but when they bring out that third one; You know you are living like a king.
mark sobba - June 2, 2009
How many swinging strikes did Bedard have tonight?
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
Probably not as many as Yuni...
Rachmaninoff - June 2, 2009
Seven
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Good work Yuni
Rob Johnson will get it done!
gregrabble - June 2, 2009
"It's all up to Rob Johnson!"
Fuck.
James F'n X - June 2, 2009
It's a miracle pitchers ever throw a strike to these fuckers
Nate Dogg - June 2, 2009
I hope when Yuni steps into the dugout Lopez punches him in the face
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
I DIED FOR YOUR FAILURE
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
I hope he punches him in the face with his dick
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
Oh boy, Rob Johnson.
.181 average really gives me confidence.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
but he's the Pride of Montana!
msb - June 2, 2009
Montana must have a low self-esteem.
russak - June 2, 2009
Wieters has .160 average and the O's fans won't shut up about it.
russak - June 2, 2009
I'm guessing their arguement is that he has potential and Rob Johnson does.
Not defending the Weiner lovers, just saying.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
*Rob Johnson doens't
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Bust
mark sobba - June 2, 2009
So All Night with Jason Smith mentioned the Ichiro hitting streak last night.
It was Mike Salk in for Smith. However, he preceded the hitting streak info with saying that noone in Seattle likes Ichiro and he’s the most polarizing figure in Seattle. Normally I don’t care what the national media says about us but the guy has a show in Seattle on 710 and now the country thinks we all hate our best player.
Hopefulmsfan - June 2, 2009
Mike Salk is a fucking moron.
James F'n X - June 2, 2009
Everything that I've heard about Mike Salk has been positive
Robert - June 2, 2009
He's been pretty good
Unfortunately, they don’t take a lot of calls, and when he does, you get the anti callers calling in.
msb - June 2, 2009
I listen to him all the time
He’s actually pretty good. Sometimes he goes off on rants I don’t really agree with, and he can be kind of an ass to people who disagree with him but he’s not terrible.
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
I've been pretty pleased with the whole ESPN radio lineup actually
Aside from Colin Cowherd who is awful.
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
That's because when he first went on air here, he got a bunch of the "Ichiro is selfish" callers.
msb - June 2, 2009
Pretty much...
Just ignore radio hosts WRT the Mariners…I had the “pleasure” of hearing on KJR that Griffey had “earned” the right to play this year, regardless of if it would hinder the progress of, you know, people we’ll use in the future…COUGH JeffClement COUGH
Rachmaninoff - June 2, 2009
The good news
Calabro was discussing UZR today with Larry Stone. I almost drove off the road.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Sims was talking about THT just the other day on the broadcast
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
OPS gets mentioned, too.
I can recall when OBP was something you got from Bill James Abstracts.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Yay!
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
You can't stop Rob Johnson.
You can only hope to contain him by walking him.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Bahahaha
4 pitch walk.
Beamonk - June 2, 2009
Let's go Endy!
We need more runs.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Adam Jones has led off an inning like a million times this game
He’s such a prima donna
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
He took Selfish Lessons from Ichiro.
msb - June 2, 2009
Is Morrow coming in?
russak - June 2, 2009
More Sean White.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
This game is longer than my
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Legs?
gregrabble - June 2, 2009
French fry?
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
;)
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
Johjima?
ThundaPC - June 2, 2009
I miss that Jap for some reason.
russak - June 2, 2009
I can't imagine why
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
It may have something to do with Johnson staring everyday.
russak - June 2, 2009
Cool glove.
msb - June 2, 2009
Run of Eli Whiteside jokes?
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
game last night?
msb - June 2, 2009
Hatred of Brian Roberts?
Paytheline - June 2, 2009
I don't believe that's measured in units of length
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Could be measured in time though
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
i.e. I've hated Brian Roberts for years
It works
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
That's true but then it makes his comment sound ridiculous considering how long we've hated Brian Roberts
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
I started hating Brian Roberts two hours ago so it's not terribly ridiculous
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
I'm difficult
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
But it responded to the hyperbole of an overlong game . . . .
Paytheline - June 2, 2009
Perhaps I wasn't being hyperbolic
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
You're difficult
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
One time when I was blackout drunk I thought that a thermometer told time and it was measured in feet
abender20 - June 2, 2009
Is what I was told
abender20 - June 2, 2009
YOUR PENIS, IT'S YOUR PENIS ISN'T IT
OlSalty - June 2, 2009
Attention span
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Now you just look like a pervert
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
The pitch right before the bad pitch was a good pitch
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Nice throw, Loafie.
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
Red rover red rover send Loafie on over
abender20 - June 2, 2009
Has anybody else heard about this Stephen Baron guy?
I heard he sucks and the Mariners are taking him with the 33rd pick. Thoughts?
DAMellen - June 2, 2009
Marienrs are cheap bums.
russak - June 2, 2009
Catch and throw guy with more power than the Mariners expected when they went to scout him
I’m not excited
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Fucking shit
abender20 - June 2, 2009
"Yadier Molina type" they sez
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
I thought this organization was smart now
abender20 - June 2, 2009
Catcher defense would appear to be their blind spot
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
We're drafting Scott Heard!
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Who is responsible for all of these rumors
abender20 - June 2, 2009
Please please please get GMZ drunk and change his mind
abender20 - June 2, 2009
HAHAHA
abender20 - June 2, 2009
Rob Johnson in the first round
abender20 - June 2, 2009
He's never going to make it
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Seriously. Where is the chatter about the M's drafting him.
abender20 - June 2, 2009
Is it from Churchill?
Decatur - June 2, 2009
No
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
That was my assumption
abender20 - June 2, 2009
This is from a reliable source
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
I hate this team a lot
abender20 - June 2, 2009
Whatever, Ackley
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Any numbnuts can pick Ackley.
I am not judging the team on their ability to do the obvious thing. Hey Sonics! Way to pick Durant! God you are smart!
abender20 - June 2, 2009
I don't like the one pick but they have a lot of high picks that they need to get signed
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
So reach on someone with some potential instead of drafting Rob Johnson
abender20 - June 2, 2009
McNamara was surprised by Baron's power recently
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
One time in a friendly baseball game in high school I hit a ball out of the softball field.
abender20 - June 2, 2009
I don't know
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
No keep going. I'm enjoying pinning my frustrations on an innocent bystander.
abender20 - June 2, 2009
And more importantly, it shows that the front office has an obnoxious blind spot
abender20 - June 2, 2009
I hope no one ever says that about me.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
I hear he's "a natural leader with outstanding makeup"
oh, wait.
Maybe that was Rob Johnson.

Awesome throw.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Lopez tried a trick play.

You're incredible.
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
I was shocked by how much you guys liked it
I didn’t think it was anything special when I posted it. But thanks anyway.
I only saw 8 recs on that, and 1 on another earlier, so I have no idea where the others come from.

Watching us get hits and runs is SO much more fun than the usual crap.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Wow that kid is a tool
abender20 - June 2, 2009
An enormous douchebag
Gihyou - June 2, 2009

gregrabble - June 2, 2009
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Decatur - June 2, 2009
I can't believe how finished he is
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
I'm still pulling for him to finish with a .250/.360/.420 line
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
.730 OPS.....
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
.743 actually
That was fast.
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
What was fast?
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
The rise of Griffey's OPS
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
He would need to add .100 to that number
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
GRIFFEY BOMB!

It had been too long since I last saw a homerun, so I'm glad Junior hit one
joof - June 2, 2009
Branyan just went deep like two minutes ago
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009

joof - June 2, 2009

Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Kenny likes the warm, muggy weather.

They hate you back

HOLY TURD BOMBS!
royalcurve - June 2, 2009
I think Cedeno wanted a piggy back ride from Jr.
He said no.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
GRIFFEY IS DONE
Jamie Walker sucks and didn’t get the memo
Gihyou - June 2, 2009
This is queer
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
Griffey a triple away from the cycle.
ThundaPC - June 2, 2009
If he hits a triple, at least Griffey will finish his career with a cycle and a blown ACL.
joof - June 2, 2009
I get the impression that Jamie Walker is having an off night
abender20 - June 2, 2009
Franklin Gutierrez catches that!
Slurvey - June 2, 2009
Adam Jones misplays that ball and it goes for a double.
joof - June 2, 2009

gregrabble - June 2, 2009

AlexM - June 2, 2009
Griffey just broke Gameday
Crystal for DH - June 2, 2009
That was crushed.
Decatur - June 2, 2009
Almost 3 in a row.
Jones can suck it, nice hit Lopez.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Uh sorry to rain on your parade but Branyan homered then Beltre got out then GRIFFEY HOMERED OH MY GOD!
Slurvey - June 2, 2009
Ooops, took a nap through the Beltre at bat.
Heydude - June 2, 2009
Adam Jones awkwardly falls into that

Oh that fag?
abender20 - June 2, 2009
That was so weird. I didn't see AB's PA at all.

GRIFFEY HOMERED OH MY GOD!
Slurvey - June 2, 2009
Not by AB.
msb - June 2, 2009
This is how I deal with every Beltre at-bat
It’s a defense mechanism
Gihyou - June 2, 2009
Holy Crap.
Two Doubles and a HR for JR in one night?
Rachmaninoff - June 2, 2009
And I heard he helped a little old lady cross the street earlier too
Dewey N - June 2, 2009
No, he gave her a piggyback ride.
Rachmaninoff - June 2, 2009
After resucing her cat from a burning building
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
That was Jose Canseco.
Mariner John - June 2, 2009

Rachmaninoff - June 2, 2009
Remember the last time we had an 8-1 lead?
ewakio - June 2, 2009
Shaddup you.
Rachmaninoff - June 2, 2009
Remember when Griffey and Branyan hit back to back home runs?
eponymous_coward - June 2, 2009
I don't
Jeff Sullivan - June 2, 2009
That's because this game is longer than

gregrabble - June 2, 2009
Common sense?
Zygomorphic - June 2, 2009
Why would that be common sense
gregrabble - June 2, 2009
People have tried to make it work but it was only funny in the post

It just didn’t make sense outside of the post.
Teej - June 2, 2009
That meme died the day Jeff gave birth to it.
It was a beautiful child, but it never had a chance at life, poor thing.
Decatur - June 2, 2009
It just doesn't work unless it is almost never used, and I don't think people were using it in the spirit of the original joke
