That Knothole Gang thing - 125 fans at a time get to watch the game for up to three innings for free through the bullpen wall - sounds like a good way to create a huge civil disturbance.
What happens during commercial break? I think it would be awesome to hear players remarking on the game, coaches talking to players, player/coach interviews, etc. Does that happen, or does it merely say “commercial break in progress?”
The last time I was in a Mariners’ suite, there was the option of switching between radio and TV broadcast, and during commercial breaks, you could hear the chatter. It was awesome that I could switch the audio as soon as Rizzs and Red came on.
Seriously. I'll back you up with an email of my own.
Actually a wonderful idea.
They do it for home fans for when their team is on the road – why not do it for the WS even if your team isn’t in it? What’s the worst? Not a sellout? You’re still making money and entertaining many, many people. I rec your idea, sir.
In a June 19, 2008, appearance on The Colbert Report, Cookie Monster again explained that “Cookies are a sometimes food.” He also attempted to eat Stephen Colbert’s Peabody Award. Colbert had asked agitatedly why Cookie Monster had “abandoned the pro-cookie agenda” and thus caused fruit to become the favorite snack of American children, according to a study Colbert had heard. Colbert criticized Cookie Monster for not wearing a cookie lapel pin. Cookie Monster also claimed to have “crazy times during the ’70s and ’80s”, referring to himself as “the Robert Downey, Jr. of cookies.” After eating a cookie to prove he still likes cookies, Cookie Monster asked if the Peabody Award, a round medallion on a small pedestal, was a cookie. When Colbert returned to speak to Cookie Monster at the end of the show, the award had disappeared and Cookie Monster was wiping his mouth with a napkin.
I hated McCarver and Buck before I even liked baseball. I was like 13 and I was still intelligent enough to know that they were just talking heads. And I didn’t get the euphemism “talking head” at that age, either. Oh god why?
I couldn't watch either, but the box score indicates that Texas must have a lousy bullpen, or at least
relied on the lousy pitchers in their bullpen. Nice. I hope they don’t come back from this and I hope this convinces Cliff Fucking Lee to go to New York.
Ozzie Guillen wouldn't of taken Vlad out and says he doesn't care about the defense.
Other than that, I can’t understand a goddamn word he is saying.
I think he’s drunk.
Goose - October 28, 2010
What on earth made them think it would be a good idea to hire him?
Eyeball Kid - October 28, 2010
Nah, he's just got a case of the venezuelans.
msb - October 28, 2010
Didn't he have a hand in trading Carlos Lee for Scott Podsednik? Or was that all Kenny Williams?
Perhaps I’ve underestimated how much he cares for contact+speed.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
STOP RAINING
seattlebruin - October 28, 2010
I wonder if Nelson Cruz got into baseball late as a kid.
He was 17 when Vlad had his first good season.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Natch.
Josh Hamilton speaks out against the Reefer Madness gripping AT&T Park
JY - October 28, 2010
Get over it Josh.
It’s not even worth the mention, it’s not like they were throwing joints at you (they wouldn’t waste good weed).
Thingray - October 28, 2010
Young ruffians smoking marijuana? Well I never!
Mariner John - October 28, 2010

Sigh.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I can't believe how excited I am for this. I'm not sure why I am, but this is fun.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Did anybody else see this?
Scummy or sardonic? I think a little of both.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
This is a bar outside of AT&T Park, by the way
Double06 - October 28, 2010
I need a fake ID with the name Josh Hamilton on it
seattlebruin - October 28, 2010
ahahahahaha
seattlebruin - October 28, 2010
I think its funny as long as its in San Francisco.
Robert - October 28, 2010
As opposed to where?
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Dallas-Fort Worth? Any other city whose team isn't currently playing Josh Hamilton in the World Series?
seattlebruin - October 28, 2010
OK I kind of see it now.
I didn’t find it very funny or overly offensive. Just, I don’t know… relevant?
Double06 - October 28, 2010
On the wagon drug abuser, alcoholic, etc? I'd say.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I think it would be funnier if it was someone I hate instead of someone I feel little ill will towards.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Don't get me wrong - I really like the guy, and find him amazing as a human being.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I like Josh Hamilton.
I love jokes about Josh Hamilton’s alcoholism and cocaine addiction.
Decatur - October 28, 2010
If I saw Josh Hamilton at the beach, I would go to the hardware store and buy some white spray paint, then come back
seattlebruin - October 28, 2010
The two shouldn't be exclusive.
RICHARD PRYOR.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
He is amazing but I guess I'm kinda sick of hearing about him.
I think I just found why it’s not that funny to me.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Have you seen that ESPN "Homecoming" series?
The episode about him is pretty cool, but yes, he plays a bit holier than thou (to quote Thingray in a seperate discussion) about his life.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I haven't but if I saw it on my guide I'd probably press the page button.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
It was actually pretty nice.
A worthy view.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
If he's actually in recovery he'll laugh it off.
That’s what recovery is; adapting to life.
THolt - October 28, 2010 via mobile
Of this I know.
Perhaps that’s why I enjoy him. I assume he would laugh at the sign in question.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I play guitar.
Metal, jazz, whatever. Taught professionally for awhile, until school hit.
THolt - October 28, 2010
Just forwarded it to you.
Fucking Hotmail seems to have turned it green, somehow. Fuck. Tell me if that shows on your copy.
THolt - October 28, 2010
Amazing.
Decatur - October 28, 2010
Is it bad that I've never heard of Adam Lambert?
Decatur - October 28, 2010
Nope.
JY - October 28, 2010
No, he's not that good.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Consider yourself one of the lucky few.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Well, too late now.
Decatur - October 28, 2010
One way or another, your mind is destined to be invaded by bullshit in this, the information age.
Unless you’re on life support and have clumsy visiting friends.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
CJ Wilson's electric flow is out of control right now.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
I really want this series to go the entire stretch, but I think the Rangers are already done.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Actually the Rangers are guaranteed at least two more games after tonight
seattlebruin - October 28, 2010
NO SHIT??! Fuck, I'll bet it might rain some time this week in Seattle.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Ian Kinsler always looks concerned.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
Ken Rosenthal should never wear a bowtie.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
That Knothole Gang thing - 125 fans at a time get to watch the game for up to three innings for free through the bullpen wall - sounds like a good way to create a huge civil disturbance.
Decatur - October 28, 2010
Or make the bullpen guys VERY happy.
Thingray - October 28, 2010
Cody Ross!
Mariner John - October 28, 2010

Well at least Buck's run out of Golden Gate Bridge facts.
drblacknwhite - October 28, 2010
Thank you for the history lesson, Mr. McCarver.

These two men make me want to go completely deaf.

ROBOTS
Eyeball Kid - October 28, 2010
That was retarded.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Shame Vlad's not out there again.
Eyeball Kid - October 28, 2010
I had a hilarious argument with my friend about how he would never bench Vlad because of his defense
and then not ten minutes later, he misplayed the Cody Ross ball to prove me exactly right
seattlebruin - October 28, 2010
I think Lookout Landing would be much better if we periodically posted 1000x1500 pictures of busty, bikini-clad women during slow moments of the game.
Decatur - October 28, 2010
Without subject lines, of course.
Wouldn’t want those to get in the way of the ladies.

No, that's for penises.
Decatur - October 28, 2010
You can't spell deadspin without penis.
Eyeball Kid - October 28, 2010
That's what Favre said.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
HOLY SHIT YOU ARE RIGHT
Robert - October 29, 2010
I can't tell if you're genuinely impressed or if I'm beating an incredibly dead horse here.
Eyeball Kid - October 29, 2010 via mobile
Genuinely impressed
Robert - October 29, 2010
MLB TV users,
What happens during commercial break? I think it would be awesome to hear players remarking on the game, coaches talking to players, player/coach interviews, etc. Does that happen, or does it merely say “commercial break in progress?”
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
The latter
With some MLB.com ads.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
Sometimes it'll be a bit late going to 'commercial break in progress' and you'll hear announcers chatting
but not very often.
Eyeball Kid - October 28, 2010
That's too bad.
The last time I was in a Mariners’ suite, there was the option of switching between radio and TV broadcast, and during commercial breaks, you could hear the chatter. It was awesome that I could switch the audio as soon as Rizzs and Red came on.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
For that matter...
Why don’t MLB teams rent out their suites for WS viewing events, with little perks like that included.
THolt - October 28, 2010 via mobile
Right??!!
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
EXTRA REVENUE.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Not to mention a great night out for fans of teams who didn't make it,
as well as perhaps a cheaper chance to attain the suite experience. Great idea. Seriously – email the Ms.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Just may. I do need a damn job, and they are incredibly inept at oh-so-many things.
THolt - October 28, 2010
Seriously. I'll back you up with an email of my own.
Actually a wonderful idea.
They do it for home fans for when their team is on the road – why not do it for the WS even if your team isn’t in it? What’s the worst? Not a sellout? You’re still making money and entertaining many, many people. I rec your idea, sir.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Thanks. Gimme an address and I'll shoot it off right now.
I think you popped my ‘rec’ cherry. Shocked they hadn’t thought of it.

Go to the main Seattle site and,
Aww, shit – hold on…

I take it from your general demeanor you know how to be professional. What’s your real name? I’m Trip Holtgrewe, btw.
THolt - October 28, 2010
Kevin Schumacher (Ess, in music).
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Wow - I have a few connections there.
I’ll see what I can do. Great email.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Excellent.
Consulting on something like this—even for a small fee—would look fantastic on my resume and would probably be pretty fuckin’ fun.
THolt - October 28, 2010
I would definitely get in on this sort of thing.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Working on my own - I'll be getting back to you.
kevin_ess - October 29, 2010
Don't give anything away. I'll send you the e-mail I sent right.... now.
THolt - October 28, 2010
I just recently observed that this series might extend beyond this game, but the Rangers look outmatched.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
It's baseball. The Giants might not score another run all series.
Decatur - October 28, 2010
I'll bet a free night of drinking at my bar to the first person to take this bet.
In return, I want to ride on a unicorn.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Whoops!
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Matt Cain needs the chronic so he doesn't murder his entire offensive lineup for lack of run support.
JamMasterJesus - October 28, 2010
Fortunately, it's pretty easy to get it legally in California.
Decatur - October 28, 2010
Apparently available in the stadium if you know the right people.
JY - October 28, 2010
Or if you just say 'anyone got dat sticky-icky!?' moderately loud.
JamMasterJesus - October 28, 2010
I thought that only worked if you were named Snoop.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Works in every Cali stadium, especially the Coliseum.
THolt - October 28, 2010
Is Ron Washington ever not chewing sunflower seeds?
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
I think it is an in game substitute for the Winston cigs he usually smokes.
44FAN - October 28, 2010
Given previous addictions, I'd say it's a good alternative.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Yeah, where are the crack-dealers with their signs proclaiming "Ron Washington smokes for free!"
THolt - October 28, 2010
Trying to find more crack, I assume.
Signs are expensive.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Gotta keep those jaws goin' :)
BRKLN M'S - October 28, 2010

BTW, Timmy is into the chron cause he went to fuckin' UW.
Dollars to dimebags he bought off the Ave once or twice when his dealer had to re-up.
THolt - October 28, 2010
Even when I was active in my addiction I would never trust the crackpots in the Ave...
That place has gotten even scarier in the past 15 years…
ambrosia2112 - October 28, 2010
Seconded. And my, you should email me.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Me?
Gimme your addy. And from the thread above, let’s find a place to pitch the M’s on that idea.
THolt - October 28, 2010
You too, it's in my profile.
But I initially meant Ambrosia regarding past addiction stuff.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Been there, done that.
THolt - October 28, 2010
I go to UW.
And I’m a bigger guy, so I almost enjoy walking down the Ave after getting drunk. Those people are insane, and it’s always the same people.
THolt - October 28, 2010
The two kids with the dogs don't scare me, they just creep me out. Like the Mona Lisa...
They eyes just keep followin’ you.

Looked like he kept the ball in front of him by using his head..

Yep it hit him in the face.
44FAN - October 28, 2010
I think I have a man-crush on the little guy..

God I wish I had TV...
THolt - October 28, 2010
I wonder if Hamilton will relapse after his failed attempt to overcome Cain tonight..
(this has probably been said before..)
HamFighter! - October 28, 2010
If it has I haven't seen it.
Eyeball Kid - October 28, 2010
Was that joke (Co)Cain?
I’m confused. Cocaine?
THolt - October 28, 2010
She don't lie. She don't lie. She don't lie.

She said, "no, no, no."

Holy shit it's the seventh inning already
Eyeball Kid - October 28, 2010
We're going to be done with God Bless America before the two hour mark.

Be thankful it's not Mariah - this would be a five hour game.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Oh my god, I can't stand these men talking about catchers and pitchers.
I’m going to mute it and let my four year-old son commentate.

Went to get some Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and the Giants score.
I will be eating CTC for the rest of the series.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
I went out and got a beer at the store while the Giants were scoring.
Looks like I’ll have to take one for the team.
JY - October 28, 2010
I like your charge better.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
It is a great responsibillity that has been handed down to me.
JY - October 28, 2010
With great responsibility comes great drunkenness.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I'm on holiday from tomorrow afternoon 'til Wednesday and I intend to be as responsible as possible in that span.
JY - October 28, 2010
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Oh, fine.
Go on about your life being all responsible. Don’t blame me if you land an awesome woman and great future.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I'm kind of afraid you didn't get your own joke there kev.
JY - October 28, 2010
Oh, I wouldn't have written it if I didn't get it.
I fear too many new people here don’t get my self-deprecating humor.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
It's always hard to tell with you.
You’re a man of mystery.
JY - October 28, 2010
No, I'm a fucking idiot with a decent sense of humor and big heart.
Apparently a dangerous combo.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I believe you can do us all proud.
I am in the opposite boat; test tomorrow and Saturday. But Saturday night I’m going to be very responsible.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
I breathed in air and the Giants scored
I think I’ll continue to breathe for the rest of the series

I'd prefer you didn't.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010

LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
I was superstitious and the Giants scored.
I think I’ll continue to be superstitious during all future sporting events.

I have not stopped drinking and the Giants have not stopped scoring.
JY - October 28, 2010
OH snap - the sky is falling.

We are watching Giants' baseball, so it's never easy.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010

kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I think she's either at the Sounders' pro shop or on washed up actress island.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
She's a cookie.

I prefer my cookies coming with viral warnings. Wait...

Gameday says legitimately on the corner.
drblacknwhite - October 28, 2010
Well, Gameday knows better than me.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
That was a pity strike.
Goose - October 28, 2010
Really Renteria?
That big of a reaction to that pitch?
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
Jon Daniels looks immensely bored.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
Jon Daniels looks like he wants to puke.
Goose - October 28, 2010
Rangers ownership looks a tad constipated at the moment
slackmaster - October 28, 2010
Ahahahahahahahahaha
BrianL - October 28, 2010
GIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIANTS!
James F'n X - October 28, 2010
wheeeeeeeeeeeee!!
slackmaster - October 28, 2010
:' ( Lowe
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Imagine if he was doing this in our uniform.
One the one hand, Yay World Series.
On the other hand, get him the hell off the mound already. Out of pity.
fiftyone - October 28, 2010 via mobile
Aw Mark Lowe
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE RENTERIA
JLC - October 28, 2010
thanks mariners!
for giving the rangers lowe :)
chenster - October 28, 2010
Kablooey.
ThundaPC - October 28, 2010
Nice jump on that Michael Young.
BrianL - October 28, 2010
I love this inning more than the 5th inning of last night's game. Love it hard.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
Well now we can sign Mark Lowe back.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
ALL SALES ARE FINAL
No returns
slackmaster - October 28, 2010
More like if they don't want it we'll take it.
Slurvey - October 28, 2010
Lowe not Leuke
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Does anyone know where to find WE for the series?
assuming the Giants win, of course.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Fangraphs?
BrianL - October 28, 2010
Fangraphs will have it for a by-game basis but I don't know about series long.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
Yes I meant series-long.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Best thing I can suggest is adding up all the games.
Maybe there’s something else that’s less tedious though.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
Hovering my cursor over a link and clicking is an appropriate amount of labor for me.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
At fangraphs
link here
JLC - October 28, 2010
This made me look up the game.
That last hit jumped the WE by 0.7. But man, with Wilson coming in, it seems like it is actually so much more.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
No take-backsies!
ThundaPC - October 28, 2010
So Justin Smoak
is going to become the next Babe Ruth and the Rangers fall under the modern version of ‘the curse of the bambino?’
Slow Country - October 28, 2010
I can only hope.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
The bullpen looked cooler with Romo and Wilson.
Get out of there Mota.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
Way to use Alexi Ogando in yesterday's blowout, Washington
JLC - October 28, 2010
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!
Game 6. Funny.
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
Triples alley!
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Well that sucks for the Rangers.
Vlad would’ve had that one.
Mariner John - October 28, 2010
19 RUNS IN TWO GAMES BITCHES
JLC - October 28, 2010
19 runs by San Fran so far this series.
ThundaPC - October 28, 2010
20 runs!
ThundaPC - October 28, 2010
baseball!
Double06 - October 28, 2010
Giants are a HR away from hitting for the cycle in this inning!
JLC - October 28, 2010
They already walked for the cycle.
fiftyone - October 28, 2010 via mobile
Meltdoooooooooooooooooooown!
Slurvey - October 28, 2010
Nope.
Two Out Magic!
LonelyintheBleachers - October 28, 2010
Chunks Ahoy in the pen.
James F'n X - October 28, 2010
"The Giants are winning by pitching again -- but not theirs"
msb - October 28, 2010
I can't believe Tim McCarver said something kind of funny
rolando74 - October 28, 2010
Oh, he says lots of funny things if you like dumb people like kevin_ess.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Fangraphs thinks the Giants have already won.
Double06 - October 28, 2010
OK, how cool would it be
to be a Giants fan, in that stadium, right now. I’d like to know how that feels. Someday.
fiftyone - October 28, 2010 via mobile
Tommy Hunter warms up and gets loose by trying to stand up.
Slurvey - October 28, 2010
@ StoneLarry Quick, Jack, call Jon Daniels. I have a feeling he wants Lueke back.
msb - October 28, 2010
Mercy.
truemsfan - October 28, 2010
ESPN headlines for tonight:
go
JamMasterJesus - October 28, 2010
Cain you beleive it?
JamMasterJesus - October 28, 2010
Currently it's More Than Able.
drblacknwhite - October 28, 2010
He Cain. He saw. He conquered.
JamMasterJesus - October 28, 2010
Cain is Candy Before Halloween.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Rangers beaten with a Cain.
44FAN - October 28, 2010
Winner.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
I agree
JamMasterJesus - October 28, 2010
Yes, Joe, remind us now of how resilient the Rangers are.
They are the carbon nanotubes of MLB.
slackmaster - October 28, 2010
Ron Washington: "Damn, I knew I should've started Vlad today!"
ThundaPC - October 28, 2010
FUCKING AWESOME
Eyeball Kid - October 28, 2010
I fucking abhor these post-game interview questions
JLC - October 28, 2010
So how do you feel about the game thread?
Are you happy with your performance tonight? Did La Nina play any effect into the way you responded tonight?
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
When did Fox decide a baseball game wasn't enough in the World Series?
msb - October 28, 2010
When they first bid enough to get the rights to air the World Series
1996, I believe it was.
slackmaster - October 28, 2010
The Mayans were off by 6 years.
I hated McCarver and Buck before I even liked baseball. I was like 13 and I was still intelligent enough to know that they were just talking heads. And I didn’t get the euphemism “talking head” at that age, either. Oh god why?
THolt - October 28, 2010
Bwahaha
JY - October 28, 2010
In a "Sixty Minutes" interview, a former exec said they artificially inflated prices just so they wouldn't scare consumers off.
i.e. they can still turn a profit with a 49 cent burrito. Ewwwwwwy.
THolt - October 28, 2010
Jose Lopez.
kevin_ess - October 28, 2010
Didn't see the game.
Any comical/informative summaries?
THolt - October 28, 2010
The Rangers can't hit NL pitching and the Giants make things happen when runners are in scoring posistion.
JamMasterJesus - October 28, 2010
I couldn't watch either, but the box score indicates that Texas must have a lousy bullpen, or at least
relied on the lousy pitchers in their bullpen. Nice. I hope they don’t come back from this and I hope this convinces Cliff Fucking Lee to go to New York.
TrustBaseball - October 28, 2010
I didn't get to see as much as I wanted, but most of what I saw was simply one team completely focused and overpowering.
