That would be, because the fielder wouldn't have a choice until the batter-runner had already reached base safely (first)
in this case, since Tolbert was already on base, theoretically Lopez had a choice to attempt to throw out Tolbert or throw out Buscher – it doesn’t matter which one he gets.
But I may be wrong on this, because he may have needed to throw out Tolbert at third rather than home to avoid the error, but it doesn’t look like they charged him with one, so I’m assuming they scored it the way I had originally. (by “had,” I meant “said,” not that I’m actually scoring a game on MLB.tv)
Randy Johnson recently earned the 300th Win of his career, joining an elite fraternity of pitchers and is well on his way to entering the hall of fame on the first ballot
And it was a change up. He got seven swinging strikes in one inning against the Twins earlier this year – all off his slider. Why doesn’t he go back to that pitch?
Rizzs soft-soaping it (“a ball just beyond the reach of Balentin”) and Dave following up with the blunt comment that Wlad should have caught those balls
based on the sample size of this subthread I don’t believe you’re capable of putting together a rational argument against Don Wakamatsu’s managing style.
Wak mentions the poor route(s) Wlad took, and when asked about defensive replacement says that you have to find out what Wlad can do out there, and you won’t find that out if you pull him early in games.
So, every afternoon, Ichiro Suzuki and Ken Griffey Jr. nod and greet each other the same way. Ichiro: "George." Junior (given name George): "Pimp." How great is that?
PLEASE GET THE HIT
NO!
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Damn! Step On A Crack Break Grandma's Back Ichi!!!
Supersonics1984 - June 5, 2009
Okay that does get old I suppose...
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
Especially when it does not make any sense whatsoever
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
So we may need extras now
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Or a huge 8th inning rally
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
The end goal is that this game never ends
Dewey N - June 5, 2009
Selig would call it a tie before it got that far
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Schroedinger's game?
If it never ends, we can never lose.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Dont do that I had withdrawls
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
It was dark in there and I got scared
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
I can't decide if it's good or bad
to be cheering for extra innings.
Andersean - June 5, 2009
Good,
AlexM - June 5, 2009
Makes it more likely ichiro extends his streak at least.
Slow Country - June 5, 2009
So it appears that RRS may not be back as soon as hoped
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
He almost hit his pitch count though!
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
He summed it up well
tonight
msb - June 5, 2009
Is Ichiro! boned?
d0nkey - June 5, 2009
Quite
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Only need two guys to reach for him to be up in the ninth
Erm, maybe only isn’t the right word.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
So, boned then.
d0nkey - June 5, 2009
Is that an Achewood Reference?
If so, color me impressedd.
Andersean - June 5, 2009
BRING BACK FELIX
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Ibanez just blew it: "Ibanez so near and yet so far" says Vin Scully
Double for the Dodgers. Jumped up and the ball touched all sorts of his glove before being dropped.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
[surprise face]!
But he hits homeruns!
d0nkey - June 5, 2009
Some epic Raul defense in LA.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
Gif?
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
they pretty much rain down from the sky
Poochie - June 5, 2009
I'll make a gif of it if someone someone tells me what program to download.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Aviedit
It’s not free though, unless you do something to make it be free.
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Ah, I see. Thanks for the tip.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
GIFs on request are so fucking dead meme'd
and the ultimate in trying to fit in.
Matthew - June 5, 2009
I'm thinking if more people know how to make them there will be less gif-begging
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Have you met LL?
There’ll just be a ton more GIFs on stuff that doesn’t need to be GIF’d and they’ll be posted wily-nily to slow down threads.
Matthew - June 5, 2009
It's like you could read my mind.
msb - June 5, 2009
Oh god what have I done
I’m tired and wasn’t thinking. There’s no such thing as a program for making gifs, ignore me.
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
GOD YES
Jeff Sullivan - June 6, 2009
This place will turn into DRB
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Yikes. Sorry.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
If only we had JI
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Like he'd do it
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Jeff was a better gif'er
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
I could make gifs just as good as his if I felt like it.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Sorry, Felix.
hey look! the whiny baby is in to pitch!
msb - June 5, 2009
Sean White?
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Danielle Lawrie was laughing at him earlier, because he was to catch her ceremonial pitch, and he kept asking her what she was going to throw.
She said she decided to take it easy on him, if he was going to be such a baby
msb - June 5, 2009
Ryan Franklin?
BrianL - June 5, 2009
I feel like Joe Crede
Wears old fashion headphones where ever he goes.
I don’t know why.
Slow Country - June 5, 2009
Not a lovely time for a walk
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Pitch f/x...
has Felix at 3 change-ups tonight…that’s simply not true. He threw that pitch 15 times at least tonight and it was dominant.
PLU Tim - June 5, 2009
It reads it as a fastball usually, I think.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
I miss Kenji
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Atta boy Rob
Dewey N - June 5, 2009
uh-oh
ThundaPC - June 5, 2009
Fucking terrible throw, fucking terrible catch
I hate you both
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Did Wak just throw out the sign for "get him to hit into a double play"?
if so, it didn;t work.
msb - June 5, 2009
It looked like Lopez had never fielded a one bouncer off of grass on that one.
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
WOOOOOOOOOOOO
Dewey N - June 5, 2009
Holy cow White has 3 swinging strikes in his first 15 pitches.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Bad throw, half assed attempt at a catch.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
Top 8, tie game, runner on second, 2 down
What time is it Safeco? Its fucking wave time! WOOOOOOOOOO
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Out! Out! Let It All Out!
Supersonics1984 - June 5, 2009
What the fuck
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
Johnson took a hit?
WTF
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
OH DEAR!
ThundaPC - June 5, 2009
Rob!!!
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
What the flying fuck was that?
BrianL - June 5, 2009
WHAT THE FUCK I LOVE THIS TEAM
Dewey N - June 5, 2009
Holy shit, I am absolutely amazed that Rob Johnson held onto that ball.
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
He used both hands.
Fairly would be so proud.
msb - June 5, 2009
Holy shit.. He held on to it
Patrick22 - June 5, 2009
Well, he didn't really get hit very hard.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Given his track record
it is still a miracle. I was expecting a fuck up of some sort from Rob
Patrick22 - June 5, 2009
Well that was exciting.
joof - June 5, 2009
HA ha idiot!
Did Sims just call him Loafie?
Fin - June 5, 2009
I feel like Dave Sims is an LL kinda guy.
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
THAT WAS AWESOME
Andersean - June 5, 2009
Wow
Why won’t you just stay down Rob
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
I hate him slightly less now
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
I dont
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Don't worry my hate for him will rise again after he inevitably strikes out in his next AB
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
I love Johjima!
Fin - June 5, 2009
Wow, suck it Tolbert, Rob Johnson is better than you.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
So Johnson did something right
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
haha...
My favorite part of that play is that I believe Lopez gets charged with an error.
PLU Tim - June 5, 2009
Play assumes one out, and one out was recorded
it will be scored Busched reaches on FC, Tolbert out at home
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
hmm...
So if a ball goes through the legs of a 2B and the hitter/runner tries for 2B and gets thrown out, it’s not an error?
PLU Tim - June 5, 2009
That would be, because the fielder wouldn't have a choice until the batter-runner had already reached base safely (first)
in this case, since Tolbert was already on base, theoretically Lopez had a choice to attempt to throw out Tolbert or throw out Buscher – it doesn’t matter which one he gets.
But I may be wrong on this, because he may have needed to throw out Tolbert at third rather than home to avoid the error, but it doesn’t look like they charged him with one, so I’m assuming they scored it the way I had originally. (by “had,” I meant “said,” not that I’m actually scoring a game on MLB.tv)
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Do you just show up after Loafie sucks it up?
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Don't be mean to Jose!
joof - June 5, 2009
You said you wanted to kick him!
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
You said you wanted to kick him!
joof - June 5, 2009
Don't suggest you like Nick Punto!
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
I didn't! =(
joof - June 5, 2009
Plus I was really looking for the sb reaction
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
I showed up after my NexDef dies suddenly and I'm no longer ten minutes behind the game
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
you are welcomed with open arms
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
We capitalize here at Lookout Landing
Poochie - June 5, 2009
*Capitalise
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Quit pretending you're British
Poochie - June 5, 2009
I've noticed Poochie is always correct on your/you.re
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
JI never knew when to pick his spots.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
How do we even know JI was a him?
Poochie - June 5, 2009
It seems assumed
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
I just assumed form "his" taste in women "he" was a lesbian.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
That's a bit awkward
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
I'm jut trying to fit in. >:(
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Talk about your age more and post links to the archives.
Matthew - June 5, 2009
I am so mature my age is irreverent
Poochie - June 5, 2009
You can just commentate on the attracctive ball girls
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Assuming they are of legal age
I’d like them to handle my foul balls.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
You're getting the hang of this
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
You should come by more often
Poochie - June 5, 2009
aw shucks
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
It's nice for new members like myself to be welcomed to such an intimidating community
with the analysis of posters like Robert and Fogel, I feel very out of place trying to have discussions with these luminaries
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Be comforted that your analyzation of such luminaries has brought you into the fold
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Bitch yeah you wish your milkshakes were hot like me
Robert - June 6, 2009
Who the hell would want a hot milkshake?
OlSalty - June 6, 2009
Good God Loafie
also, first time to compliment Rob Johnson, he didn’t get hit as much as he drilled Tolbert
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Nope, Tolbert ran his ass over
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
That play went from fuck FUCK, FUCK YES!
AlexM - June 5, 2009
I love Russel Branyan.
Slow Country - June 5, 2009
That was a play, shit.
Fin - June 5, 2009
Why's Kenny Powers Hiding From A T-Rex He's A God Damn Bullet Proof Tiger!
Supersonics1984 - June 5, 2009
Hmm
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
That's a headscratcher
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
GAH
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Two more of these and you're taking a break.
Matthew - June 5, 2009
Oh Poopsticks A Second Warning? Okay I'll Retire It's Been Fun.....Cheers.
Supersonics1984 - June 5, 2009
What's a poopstick?
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Don't get him going.
Fin - June 5, 2009
Guess what cannot happen?
Matthew - June 5, 2009
Don't ask these things
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Sims is way too excited for water bottle night.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
Gives him a new place to store his booze
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
I wouldn't think that would be his drug of choice.
Fin - June 5, 2009
Who says you can't mix and match?
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
In general, he's always too excited.
Torrid - June 5, 2009
Depends on what you put in that waterbottle
msb - June 5, 2009
He's putting some adult beverages in there for sure.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
In a kids' water bottle.
Whoda’ thunk?
Fin - June 5, 2009
I wish Beltre was better at recognizing breaking balls
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
I love me some pussy hits
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
BLOOP!
ThundaPC - June 5, 2009
BUNT SWEENEY BUNT
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Bunt again!
AlexM - June 5, 2009
Steal!
msb - June 5, 2009
Oh, Ervin Santana white thing in nose issue is cleared up
He had a nose bleed apparently, so I guess that’s a tissue
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
So you're saying he's been hanging out with Josh Hamilton
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Aardsma Time.
Yay.
Slow Country - June 5, 2009
How'd that get here?
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
This was an odd place to post that comment
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Gameday has Aardsma in. Is this untrue?
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
This is true
But he used it as a reply to a joke about Josh Hamilton doing crack
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Crack makes the mind wander and shit appear in weird places?
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Way to go!!!!
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
Crap, this team is just crap.
Fin - June 5, 2009
UGH
We’re gonna have to go extras for Ichiro to continue the streak
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
2-on, 2-out, bottom 9 game winner.
Just like vs. Korea, baby.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Oh god that was glorious.
Even my Korean girlfriend was clapping for Ichiro.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Damnit!
That doesn’t help us get back around to Ichiro you dumb motherfucker!
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
Aside from scoreing our only run, Sweeney is really stinking up the joint.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
If there is a god, Shelton will be up tomorrow and Sweeney will be out on his ass
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
But he hit a homerun today! His power is back!
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Maybe Mike would like to retire, and take up a position as Steve Hecht's new assistant.
msb - June 5, 2009
What
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
The fuck?
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
.
link
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Or
there is this
msb - June 5, 2009
Teams are getting creative with first pitches
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
Here comes the annoying Gomez bunt single.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
EXTRAS!
joof - June 5, 2009
Please, PLEASE throw strikes
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Seriously why does he always go to Aardsma?
White is perfectly capable of pitching more than one inning
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
You just have love for Sean/Shawns
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
I just think it's stupid to waste an extra pitcher when there's a perfectly good one already in the game
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Especially when said pitcher got tired on the last road trip and kicked the team in the balls
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
From pitching every day when he wasn't necessarily needed
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Hi Corco
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Ouch
Poochie - June 5, 2009
That was a big swing.
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
BENDY THINGS!
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Or not.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Sit the fuck down
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Not ecstatic about the impending Aardsma-Mauer matchup
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
If he gets Span out, no worries.
And it will be another of our frightening relievers taking on Mauer and Morneau.
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
I sure hope it's Morrow or Stark
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Well fuck
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
We're at 100% percent for extras!
Poochie - June 5, 2009
I just found out how to make video of the Beltran strikeout the screensaver on my phone.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Wait, this game is still going on?
Poochie - June 5, 2009
No,
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
No what?
Poochie - June 5, 2009
it is not going on
damn the tiny keys
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
But Me and Mrs Jones
that is still goin’ on.
msb - June 5, 2009
Lets see how this straight high fastball approach
works on Mauer and Morneau.
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
I find Span to be really annoying
Scrupio - June 5, 2009
Good news!
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Terrible fucking throw Johnson
Brian Floyd - June 5, 2009
GUNNED!
ThundaPC - June 5, 2009
Well that was unexpected.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
ROB!!!
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
RONNY!!!*
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Wait really
that throw was horrible

no

RONNY RONNY RONNY RONNY RONNY RONNY RONNY RONNY
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Cedeno > Yuni
Heydude - June 5, 2009
Does this need to be stated?
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
My initial thought is no, no it does not
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Only had to bring it up after he made a great play.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
RONNY!!!!!!!!!
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
RONNY YOU CUTIE.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
Ronny!
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
SUCK IT DENARD
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Holy!
MFAN - June 5, 2009
If we don't go into extras I will kill myself.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Rob Johnson is the best player surnamed Johnson ever to paly for the Mariners!
Matthew - June 5, 2009
I know you're the expert but I disagree
Poochie - June 5, 2009
I wholeheartedly disagree
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
You may not be aware, but Randy Johnson once played for the Mariner's and he just recently won his 300th game.
joof - June 5, 2009
You may not be aware, but Matthew is one of the mods on this site
and thus is probably aware of the team’s history
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Randy Johnson recently earned the 300th Win of his career, joining an elite fraternity of pitchers and is well on his way to entering the hall of fame on the first ballot
Rob Johnson recently rented the movie 300
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
That was Mark Lowe
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Twinsies!
joof - June 5, 2009
Well there goes the joke
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
I believe you're thinking of Mark Lowe.
joof - June 5, 2009
Throwing out Denard Span is pretty damn impressive.
And that was a great tag.
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
Yuni will be back tomorrow.
ThundaPC - June 5, 2009
No one better hit a fucking walkoff before Ichiro comes up
Oh, who am I kidding, that isn’t a real concern
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
loafie wanted to prove you wrong
but he didnt
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
Oh wow I enjoyed that close up
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
I very nearly shat myself
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
You almost fucked that up Lopez.
Also, opp. field?!
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
He hit it the other way.
ThundaPC - June 5, 2009
Working the count.
Oh, yeah.
msb - June 5, 2009
Wlad take.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
I think we've got a good shot at seeing Ichiro again.
Maybe twice at this rate.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
GRIFFEY GRIFFEY GRIFFEY
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Nope!
BrianL - June 5, 2009
GOD ROB JOHNSON SUCKS
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
I FEEL LIKE I'M WATCHING HISTORY
THE FIRST AUTISTIC FUCKTARD TO EVER MAKE IT TO THE MAJORS
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Griffey!!!
AlexM - June 5, 2009
FUCK its ROB.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
WHAT KIND OF FAGGOT SHIT IS THIS
Poochie - June 5, 2009
I guess Jr was just bored of sitting.
Matthew - June 5, 2009
Probably didn't want to waste their walk with 2 out no one on
Poochie - June 5, 2009
JFC
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
What the fuck I thought Griffey was pinch hitting
Why did they change that plan, it was a good one
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Had there been fewer than 2 outs
Griffey would have probably hit.
Andersean - June 5, 2009
Well that was quick but not painless
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
At least it guarantees Ichiro! another at bat, I guess
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Gutz hitting a walkoff HR would be the height of irony.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Lowe's straight fastball with Mauer and Morneau makes me think that won't happen.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
Oh my how did I forget The Streak!
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
Wow. That was awesome.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
ICHIRO WILL GET ANOTHER CHANCE!
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Man this is one wussy song.
msb - June 5, 2009
Why the hell does Wak not pinch hit?
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
YAY ICHIRO
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
Ichiro has a higher batting average than Rob and Ronny combined
Scrupio - June 5, 2009
Hey Mariners, let's play more really close low scoring games that still take a long time.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
EXTRAS!
joof - June 5, 2009
Woo-hoo!
Poochie - June 5, 2009
This is going to be horrifying
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Well this won't end well.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
Which Lowe will it be tonight?
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
The one that sucks.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
How the fuck is that not a strike?
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Hooray pitches that are strikes being called balls
because it’s not where the catcher set up.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
Awe Wlad, your killing me.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
Oops
Poochie - June 5, 2009
The Raul Memorial.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
Oh I wish Endy was playing.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
Dammit this needs the all hands team on the field
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
Ugh... Endy would have had that
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
That's a fucking DOUBLE?
All the fielding of Raul, none of the power.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Fuck Joe Mauer.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
And Wlad.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
I don't think Wlad is our best option in the field.
msb - June 5, 2009
But Wak values defense!
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
I thought Wlad was past the sillyness in the field :(
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
I don't think is worth Ichiro getting another AB
It will probably be against Nathan.
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
That was really, really ugly Wlad.
Manzanillos Cup - June 5, 2009
Mark put on your fucking 300 Helmet on and get the fucking job done.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
9 balls, 3 strikes
Good ratio
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Four intentional
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Four of those nine balls were intentional you flaming codpiece
Matthew - June 5, 2009
Mark Lowe, you are absolutely worthless.
russak - June 5, 2009
He's nose deep in some pickle juice now
Don’t ever change Dave Sims
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Is that the 97th hitter our bullpen has started 2-0?
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
Picklejuice - what?
Dave Sims is talking crazy talk.
Torrid - June 5, 2009
Nose-deep in some pickle juice?

HOW THE FUCK DID HE HOLD ON TO THAT BALL!?
BrianL - June 5, 2009
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST I LOVE HIM
WE’RE STILL FUCKED BUT I LOVE HIM
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
HOW THE FUCK DID HE CATCH THAT
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
"OH BABY!" indeed, Mr. Sims.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Play of the year
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
We're still going to lose.
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
After that catch if Ichiro gets a hit I'm counting it as a win.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
God that was such a great catch.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
Damn, I dont get to see it. Was it a diving catch?
russak - June 5, 2009
Up against the wall, glove over the wall, to bring the ball back
msb - June 5, 2009
He robbed what would've been a 3 run homerun
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Robbed Kubel of a HR.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
It sounds like he scaled Goliath to stab him in the eye.
I want to see it too :(
HHZ - June 5, 2009
Leap at the top of the wall by the landing
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
Just over the wall, brought the homer back.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
Ranged back really far to steal a homerun. Incredible.
joof - June 5, 2009
That was a ridiculous catch
joof - June 5, 2009
Wow, that was incredible, wow.
CstSnow - June 5, 2009
Impressive that he held onto that in his glove.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Well...
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
I'm guessing Lowe missed the pitch out sign.

HOLY FUCKING FUCKING SHIT
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Ha pretty boy
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
This is some crazy shit right here.

100 MPH?
bluemax - June 5, 2009
Do you think Wak figured out their signs?
Decatur - June 5, 2009
How much more luck can they string out this inning
msb - June 5, 2009
Ichiro is hitting a home run next inning to win it.
joof - June 5, 2009
Or not
Kirsten Schlewitz - June 5, 2009
Nick Punto is awesome.
joof - June 5, 2009
And Little.
msb - June 5, 2009
The obvious bait is to say he'd be a better backup than Cedeno
Poochie - June 5, 2009
NOT TOO MUCH APPARENTLY
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
Not much, I guess.
msb - June 5, 2009
Damn you Wlad! Should have been out of the inning!
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
What the FUCK is going on in the 10th???
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Wak can read minds
forte40 - June 5, 2009
Did Wak call that or did Rob Johnson?
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
FUCK YOU WLAD
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
GOD DAMMIT WLAD

AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Goddammit why isn't Endy out there

OHH WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?
joof - June 5, 2009
Fuck you Balentein
Nate Dogg - June 5, 2009
I HATE WLAD.

OH FOR FUCKS SAKE WLAD
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
When did we get Raul back?
d0nkey - June 5, 2009
If we have to lose, that is how I want to go out.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Wlad being lazy.
bluemax - June 5, 2009
Your fired, I want Endy back NOW.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
Fucking hell, Wlad.
Eyeball Kid - June 5, 2009
WLAD YOU ARE A BAD FIELDER AND YOU SHOULD FELL BAD
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
WE WANT ENDY

FUCK YOU WLAD
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK YOU
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
FUCK ME IN THE FUCKING ASS
GET A FUCKING BUS TICKET TO TACOMA, WLAD YOU SACK OF SHIT
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Three amazing outs in a row wouldnt have been mariners baseball.
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
That's it, Saunders to Seattle right fucking now.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
I bet we can beat Nathan
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Mostly Lowe's fault for giving up so many line drives
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Fuck that
GMZ put together an outfield defense for a purpose.
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
Fair point. But Wlad should have caught both of those balls.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
I dunno about the Mauer ball
that looked like it really sliced away from him. The Tolbert ball was hit right where he should have been though
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Yeah he should have
But they were both fairly difficult plays. Difficult plays he should’ve made though.
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
The second ball was very catchable.
He took a shitty route to it.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
So was the first.
He went back and found the wall and forgot there was a fucking baseball he had to catch.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
That ball was slicing away from him.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
It wasn't an easy play but a major league left fielder makes it.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
He took a pretty crappy route to the first one too
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
What is funny is that Gutz made the most difficult play of the inning look easy.
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
Endy better be starting tomorrow
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
GOD I HATE YOU WLAD
Corco - June 5, 2009
bahahahahaahahhahaha I love how they show Endy now
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Endy is not amused by wlad's defence
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
Why is everything that is hit off of Lowe completely scorched?
russak - June 5, 2009
Because if the hitters know exactly where the ball is going to be, it's not that hard to hit it
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
His fastball is dead straight.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
He threw ONE offspeed pitch that inning.
And it was a change up. He got seven swinging strikes in one inning against the Twins earlier this year – all off his slider. Why doesn’t he go back to that pitch?
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Mauer, Morneua, Kubel are lefties and the slider issn't the best pitch to throw.
But Lowe has a pretty good change-up that he wasn’t throwing of course.
Slurvey - June 6, 2009
I'd like to blame Balentien for all of that inning, but Lowe was getting absolutely hammered
JLC - June 5, 2009
I cannot believe that Guti held on to that ball.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
This inning was really one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
Idiot fielding, all-world catch, blown squeeze, idiot fielding. Beautiful.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
A new day. a new way.
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
Indeed.
I’ve never seen something quite like that before.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
Oh hey, they hit it to someone who knows how to catch.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
FUCK YOU WLAD AND YOUR FUCKING ONE HOMERUN
and shit defense
Manzanillos Cup - June 5, 2009
Endy has TWO home runs.
Fuck you, Wlad.
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
That was an insane inning.
Wlad needs to go bye-bye.
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
Also, yay Joe Nathan!
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
So without Wlad it's very possible that would have been a 1-2-3 inning
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
So how long before Wlad gets back in another game
msb - June 5, 2009
I think someone was under the influence when they made that Morrow Bobblehead commercial
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
under the influence of insulin?
forte40 - June 5, 2009
Or speed
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Helium.
msb - June 5, 2009
Or clowns
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
No, definitely crack.
Torrid - June 5, 2009
FREE MICHAEL SAUNDERS.
russak - June 5, 2009
Might be a good time to pinch hit...
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Hey let's make sure we let Cedeno bat.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
Why is Griffey not hitting?
Manzanillos Cup - June 5, 2009
He has to PH for a CFer
Poochie - June 5, 2009
What the fuck is Wak's problem with PHing Griffey?
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Wak has nervous fingers.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
No PH for Cedeno. What the fuck, Wak.
russak - June 5, 2009
Blowers just wondered aloud if something was wrong with Endy or Yuni, as they are both still on the bench here
msb - June 5, 2009
They must be fine if he would pinch hit for GUTZ
AlexM - June 5, 2009
WHY FOR GUTZ
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
I WANT TO SEE GRIFFEY PLAY CENTER
Poochie - June 5, 2009
I am mildly confused as well.
Matthew - June 5, 2009
Gutz hits behind Rob Johnson so I am convinced that wak thinks he is the worst hitter in the lineup
Poochie - June 5, 2009
The way he has been batting him 9th and making him bunt constantly it's clear that he does
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Which is dumb
I’m starting to question whether he really knows what he’s doing.
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
He may want speed in front of Ichi and 8/9 doesn't matter that much
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Theres Griffey
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
THEY PINCH HIT GUTI
WHAT THE FUCK
Manzanillos Cup - June 5, 2009
SERIOUSLY? GUTZ=SEX!
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
You're pinch hitting for the wrong person, Wak.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
WHAT THE FUCK THEY'RE PINCH HITTING FOR GUTZ.
FEEL My WRATH, WAKASATAN!
Decatur - June 5, 2009
WTFFFFFFFF
Cedeno Ok, Gutz not
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
I do not understand this at all
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
It's about time.
GRIFFEY!
Heydude - June 5, 2009
Why the fuck would they PH for Gutz and not Cedeno
That is absolutely retarded
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
This should not be something to cheer for.
Fuckmikereilly - June 5, 2009
Fuck Wak.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Doesn't Wak know how this works. The fielder who makes the great play then comes to the plate and hits the homer.
russak - June 5, 2009
This is the first time I'll say it all year:
This is fucking stupid Wakamatsu.
Unless he’s just punishing Yuni and wants to make sure he doesn’t touch the field.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
Why do you want to see Yuni hit or field?
BrianL - June 5, 2009
I don't get this
manifestus - June 5, 2009
Keeping Cedeno in the game
so he makes sure Yuni doesn’t see the field.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
ball
forte40 - June 5, 2009
We're saving Yuni to PH for Ichiro
manifestus - June 5, 2009
I want Ichiro to tie the game up to extend his streak and send Griffey out the CF for the 11th.
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
Endy
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
Wlad, Jr, Ichi
2008 all over again
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
What?
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
What does this even mean
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Jr. wasn't on the team in 2008
joof - June 5, 2009
bad D
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
Now you use Griffey?
I don’t get why Wakamatsu seems to think Gutierrez is the worst hitter on the team
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Goddammit even if we tie we just lost Gutz in the outfield, and probably Cedeno in the infield
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
YUNI IN THE INFIELD IN EXTRAS FUCK FUCK FUCK
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
Why is Cedeno out?
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Wouldn't they move him to the outfield to cover the loss of Gutz?
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
Wait, Endy is on the bench.
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
Endy Chavez
JLC - June 5, 2009
Prob put Endy in CF
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
Possibly
Poochie - June 5, 2009
If he walks we may have a chance
Ichiro then Russ
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
I'm only Griffey were this patient when he was good
Poochie - June 5, 2009
What would that have been an OBP of .480?
in his best years
mark sobba - June 5, 2009
Griffey is just going to sit there without swinging once
manifestus - June 5, 2009
Wrong.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Well, that worked out well, dang it.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
FUCKNUTS
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
Oh god. Why.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
C'Mon Ichiro, just get 1 hit.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
Please get the hit Ichiro so at least something good happened in this retarded game
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
This might be a good time to hit a homer, Ichi
seattlebruin - June 5, 2009
please don't walk him
BigWood! - June 5, 2009
#28 for the tie?
tootthekazoo - June 5, 2009
Well a tying HR would be a great way to extend the hitting streak
JLC - June 5, 2009
This game is 100% on Wlad.
I know this isn’t true, but so what.
Manzanillos Cup - June 5, 2009
I'm blaming him too, it's ok.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
If we all blame him, we must be right.
Torrid - June 5, 2009
I'll buy into that
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
YOU WALK ICHI
AND I WILL FIND YOU NATHON
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
Consolation prize, Ichiro.
Get a hit and then run into the out to get this over with.
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
Ichi hit. Sexy Muscle hits a walk off.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
This, please.
CstSnow - June 5, 2009
What a kick in the nadgers for Gutz.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
PLEASE ICHIRO
I DON’T CARE IF WE WIN JUST GET A HIT
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
Dear Ichiro, we havent talked much, but i feel like we've always been pretty close when we do. So it's as a friend i ask you this.
TRIPLE RIGHT NOW DAMN YOU
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
If only Wak twittered.
He could tweet WTF he is thinking.
msb - June 5, 2009
What if Lou Twittered during games?
That would be good.
mark sobba - June 5, 2009
There would be some fine scrambled messages.
msb - June 5, 2009
I don't think he understands PHing at all.
Manzanillos Cup - June 5, 2009
Come on Ichiro
joof - June 5, 2009
Don't you dare walk him.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
But Branyan.
TheBishop - June 5, 2009
shit
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
WELL THIS GAME WAS ABOUT AS FUN AS A ROOT CANAL
IceStormV1 - June 5, 2009
But how?
forte40 - June 5, 2009
GOD FUCKING DAMMIT WHY!!!
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
OH MY GOD WAK SHOULD BE MURDERED AND THEN FIRED AND THEN MURDERED AGAIN
THERE IS NO WAY THIS TEAM WILL EVER WIN ANOTHER GAME EVER
Teej - June 5, 2009
Nice way to keep everything in prospective.
mark sobba - June 5, 2009
I'M TRYING TO FIT IN
Teej - June 5, 2009
Crap.
It’s all Wlad’s fault.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
WALK-OFF!
Matthew - June 5, 2009
In a sense
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
I WOULD ARGUE IN THE TRUEST SENSE
BECAUSE GAME WINNING HITS USUALLY INVOLVE RUNNING!
Matthew - June 5, 2009
Unless you're B.J. Upton
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Well that was pretty much the last thing I thought Ichiro would do
JLC - June 5, 2009
WORST GAME OF THE YEAR
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
The Angels game was far worse
Nate Dogg - June 5, 2009
The last time I felt that ill at the end of a game
was USC vs Stanford a few years ago. USC vs Stanford was way worse.
bluemax - June 5, 2009
Maybe for you, but we have seen Morrow blow 2-3 times this year in that same fashion.
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
I blame this all on Wlad.
Even Ichiro’s streak ending.
Smegmalicious - June 5, 2009
FUCK THAT SHIT.
AlexM - June 5, 2009
Fuckin' Wladimir
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
I'm sad =(
joof - June 5, 2009
Hahahahah
What a perfect way to end the game
manifestus - June 5, 2009
What a way to ruin train car night.
Heydude - June 5, 2009
INTERVIEW WLAD
gregrabble - June 5, 2009
This is the part where I pretend I'm upset.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
So when do all go to Wlad's place with white hoods and torches?
russak - June 5, 2009
I'm free the rest of the evening.
Torrid - June 5, 2009
I know Wlad is out of options,
But why the fuck is he on this team. The only thing that made him special was power, and now he has none.
Manzanillos Cup - June 5, 2009
Well this is an ignorant comment.
Matthew - June 5, 2009
I think I better stop posting for a while.
Manzanillos Cup - June 5, 2009
I'm just going to pretend that Kubel went yard
Fucking Mark Lowe has the most hittable high-90’s fastball in the league
JLC - June 5, 2009
I blame the offense for only getting 1 run off a broken lefty and a bad bullpen.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
There were so many times the Twins could have taken this game
msb - June 5, 2009
And then they did.
Wilder. - June 5, 2009
Add in the inept offense on the Ms side, you really didn;t even need Wlad to screw it up.
msb - June 5, 2009
Maybe Endy has the flu or something
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
Go back to Curacao, Wlad.
russak - June 5, 2009
I love it.
Rizzs soft-soaping it (“a ball just beyond the reach of Balentin”) and Dave following up with the blunt comment that Wlad should have caught those balls
msb - June 5, 2009
Well
tootthekazoo - June 5, 2009
Shouldn't have pulled Felix out Wak
Idiot retard idiot
coolconman - June 5, 2009
11 pitches.
Wak is neither retarded nor an idiot.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
111 pitches.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
who freaking cares. Pitch counts are so lame.
Every pitcher should try to emulate Roy Halladay. Our bullpen is going to blow it for sure every time. Leave felix in
coolconman - June 5, 2009
Jesus tapdancing Christ you're not sounding much above retarded.
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
Because every pitcher is built like Roy Halladay
msb - June 5, 2009
Yes it would be fun to see Felix's arm explode into a million pieces just so we can avoid the bullpen
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
yeah it would.
btter than letting our lame bullpen play
coolconman - June 5, 2009
Losing Felix to injury is a much better option than letting our bullpen pitch?
BrianL - June 5, 2009
Please stop being a retard.
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
So we agree then
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
I'd prefer for the arm of our best pitcher not to explode while he's on the mound.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
Please admit that you're trolling.
Because there’s no other explanation.
Teej - June 5, 2009
In his defence, it sounds like sarcasm taken too far.
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
This isn't the first time he's called Wak a retarded moron for no reason.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
Oh, gotcha.
Definitely retarded.
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
No not no reason
coolconman - June 5, 2009
I don't know
based on the sample size of this subthread I don’t believe you’re capable of putting together a rational argument against Don Wakamatsu’s managing style.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
Oh, hi there, Nolan Ryan.
ThundaPC - June 5, 2009
He was at almost 110 pitches.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
Wow.
Teej - June 5, 2009
Tell me about it.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Post game
Wak mentions the poor route(s) Wlad took, and when asked about defensive replacement says that you have to find out what Wlad can do out there, and you won’t find that out if you pull him early in games.
msb - June 5, 2009
In Wak's defense Wlad seemed to have taken a step forward in his route-running before tonight
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
His arm isn't the worst, either.
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
I agree to a point, but 9 innings is more than enough for that.
Endy should be out there in the highest leverage situations – particularly with a flyball pitcher pitching.
Thanks for pointing this out, by the way. I don’t have access to the post-game show, so this is helpful.
Decatur - June 5, 2009
I suppose it is the idea of seeing Wlad in left, as he's been in RF in the past
msb - June 5, 2009
Wak also pointed out that the game should never have gotten to that point, that they had chances to win earlier
msb - June 5, 2009
The man does say all the right things in an interview
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
I would still like him to explain how he came to the conclusion that Gutierrez is our worst hitter
OlSalty - June 5, 2009
No one asked him about the PH opportunities
msb - June 5, 2009
Who's doing the interview? New York Vinnie or is one of the round robin sessions with everybody?
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
It is always the whole pool, in the interview room
msb - June 5, 2009
Cool, just checking. There's been a few tweeks since they changed radio stations.
I wasn’t sure if that part was still the same.
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
They brought New York Vinnie back?
GOD
BrianL - June 5, 2009
He was sitting in for Drayer on her days off
msb - June 5, 2009
That explains it, good to know
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
Not sure if it's a regular gig, I heard him do a couple on field interviews awhile back, and the post game last week or so
Kermit. - June 5, 2009
He's gotta find someway to pay for all of those deep-dish pizzas.
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
Because he's fat.
Poochie - June 5, 2009
Or because he's a spokesman for Alfy's Pizza.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
I thought it was a New York thing.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
I know, i know. Lazy joke.
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
(all three)
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
I'm wondering if Yuni was sick or something.
Cause that’s pretty much the only way to explain pinch hitting for Gutz instead of Cedeno.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
Still exhausted from chasing Beltre the other night?
msb - June 5, 2009
It was the hardest i've seen him run since 2005.
MFAN - June 5, 2009
Pitman is ignoring all those draft rumors
and going straight to an interview with Ackley’s college coach,
msb - June 5, 2009
You'll be surprised to hear that Coach Fox is a big fan of his player.
msb - June 5, 2009
They just interviewed Wlad, and he looks so sad.
joof - June 5, 2009
That was kind of painful to watch.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
I feel bad for the kid and all but he should try not being bad at baseball.
Aaron Campeau - June 5, 2009
That would help to ensure these awkward moments don't happen anymore.
BrianL - June 5, 2009
I imagine the 2nd one was especially brutal for him
Since that was one he definitely should’ve had
JLC - June 5, 2009
I feel sorry for Wlad
Look at those puppy dog eyes. He didnt mean it…
JamMasterJesus - June 5, 2009
I read this in Yahoo sport rankings:
So, every afternoon, Ichiro Suzuki and Ken Griffey Jr. nod and greet each other the same way. Ichiro: "George." Junior (given name George): "Pimp." How great is that?
