is that the Reds have an affiliate, also in Ohio, that has sold out 704 consecutive games, or roughly ten home seasons and then some. So that franchise has been able to create an incredible ballpark experience (on the cheap too) for a team that on average finished third or fourth, while the big club wins their division and no one seems to care.
The Tampa thing is also kind of mind-blowing, but maybe people there are going to a lot of Florida State League games instead. I don’t know.
It’s like throwing a baseball either causes a) him to age rapidly and then snap back or b) his face to collapse in on itself in response to the force exerted by his arm.
Utley to first pretending to be hit by a pitch, Utley then called safe at second incorrectly, Bruce loses ball in the lights allowing Utley to score, Phillips then drops the relay throw allowing Werth to score. Hm.
Woooooooooooooooooooooo!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
That was quick.
ThundaPC - October 8, 2010
Matt Cain is making me uncomfortable.
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
Matt Cain is in a foreign country, trying to find his way to the train station using directions from a non-English speaker
pdb - October 8, 2010
Apologies if this is a tired comparison
but holy crap is Matt Cain ever John C. Reilly!
TheBishop - October 8, 2010
He sort of has a Benjamin Button thing going on.
If I didn’t know who he was, I couldn’t tell if he was 12 or 40.
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
It's almost a a computer-generated image of what we think the boy looks like now, 20 years after he was kidnapped.
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
Brian Bocock is as surprised as you are.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Is Arroyo sporting a mullet?
Jed MC - October 8, 2010
I don't know exactly what it is, but I know Arroyo is saying "Oh no you di'n't!"
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
I think all his hair is fairly long.
It’s not just a party in the back.
Thingray - October 8, 2010
It's Bill Bavasi!
ThundaPC - October 8, 2010
Bavasi made it to the playoffs.
MFAN - October 8, 2010
Giants?
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Giants!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
I think you mean GIANTS!!
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
I think you're right.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
I think the Giants might pass the 08 Rays as my favorite bandwagon team of all time
Robert - October 8, 2010
I think I am more excited about the Giants than my friends who are actually Giants fans
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
I am not as excited as them, but I am definitely it in to win it.
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
To quote the esteemed Bruce Bochy:
“Today it’s all decks on hand.”
TheBishop - October 8, 2010
Utley!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
He's bringing Saxy back!
TheBishop - October 8, 2010
That 'Born Free' song they keep playing is really quite annoying.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Could be worse
THIS IS OUUUUURRRR COUNTRY!
Goose - October 8, 2010
Thanks for that.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
I was just curious to see the attendance numbers for the playoff teams.
Cincy: 2,060,055 (12th in the NL)
Philly: 3,777,322 (1st in the NL)
Atlanty: 2,510,119 (9th in the NL)
San Franny: 3,037,443 (5th in the NL)
NYY: 3,765,807 (1st)
Min: 3,223,640 (3rd)
Tex: 2,505,171 (5th)
TB: 1,864,999 (9th)
Seattle’s final tally: 2,085,630 (8th)
Just something I was curious to find out about.
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
Cincinnati's numbers are surprising to me.
BigR - October 8, 2010
We beat the Reds!
Woo Woo!
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
What's weird to me about that...
is that the Reds have an affiliate, also in Ohio, that has sold out 704 consecutive games, or roughly ten home seasons and then some. So that franchise has been able to create an incredible ballpark experience (on the cheap too) for a team that on average finished third or fourth, while the big club wins their division and no one seems to care.
The Tampa thing is also kind of mind-blowing, but maybe people there are going to a lot of Florida State League games instead. I don’t know.
JY - October 8, 2010
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
So, Reds need to finish this out and beat Cole Hamels and then they'll have a shot in game 5.
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
Wow - The Reds really snuck up on me this season.
I had no clue they were going to be this good.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
I love Arroyo's leg-kick
Cleesesque.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
While looking into the Reds, I just noticed that Homer Bailey has a pretty solid pitchface.
JY - October 8, 2010
Beautiful
BigR - October 8, 2010
And most of them are like that too.
It’s like throwing a baseball either causes a) him to age rapidly and then snap back or b) his face to collapse in on itself in response to the force exerted by his arm.
JY - October 8, 2010
And this is the photo they have on his player profile on the Reds site.
I don’t even understand how this happens.
JY - October 8, 2010
Hmmm.. that looks like Danny Herrera to me but I could be way off.
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
It really doesn't look like the other photos of Bailey.
But Herrera’s a southpaw, so it can’t be him.
JY - October 8, 2010
Holy shit it's Blakey from On the Buses!
/Incredibly obscure reference.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
It looks like he's hitting some serious G's there.
Kenneth Arthur - October 8, 2010
This is a new category of pitchface, surrealist/cubist pitchface.
marc w - October 8, 2010
Goddammit Reds
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Two fielding errors to help load the bases?
That’s pretty awful.
JY - October 8, 2010
This is problematic.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
FUCKFUCKFUCK
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Phew
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Phew.

Stubbs you idiot
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Well, Drew Stubbs sure looked foolish on that pick off.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
Arthur Rhodes!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Arthur Rhodes is now pitching

w00tah - October 8, 2010
Fantasic
Goose - October 8, 2010
I haven't used ML:B's at bat/gameday in a while, but their player renderings looks like graphics from High Heat 2002.
Goose - October 8, 2010
PUT CHAPMAN IN ALREADY
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
So he can kill somebody?
Goose - October 8, 2010
For fuck's sake.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
SWEENDAWG: CONCERNED
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Right in the ear hole.

Oh you twat

Aw
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Phew
Again.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Jose Contreras is still playing?
Goose - October 8, 2010
Heisey looks like Bobby from King of the Hill.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
Chapman time!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Chapman!
Looking forward to the PitchFX speed readings.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Meh, just 100 mph.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
Aroooooooldis.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
He throws a smooth 100 mph.
Sexy.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
I don't think that hit him.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Utley is a fucking pansy.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Not even close
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
He seems to be 78% limbs.
Also: Utley’s a wimp.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
OH COME ON
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
Speeds in this AB
100,87,101!
Goose - October 8, 2010
Chapman vs. Howard is not a matchup fans have been dying to see.
Pujols, sure. Howard? He’s over-matched.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
Whoo-hoo!
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
This is a lot of fun.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Howard looked old.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
100,99,101
Goose - October 8, 2010
The crowd is doing that oooooing and awwwwing Jeff was talking about.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
"Well, sometimes you have to cheat a little outside the rulebook." - Chase Utley.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
I like that it was referred to as a Derek Jeter moment.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
BULL
SHIT
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Uh oh.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
99,98,99,100,100,99
Goose - October 8, 2010
Out by a mile.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
I like how the first replay TBS showed was the widest possible angle.
“Let’s get a farther look.”
yuniform - October 8, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
MY FOUR YEAR-OLD COULD HAVE CAUGHT THAT.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
AWWWWWW
no.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK
Slurvey - October 8, 2010
oh no
ThundaPC - October 8, 2010
WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Jesus fucking christ!
Goose - October 8, 2010
Wow.
Pathetic fielding all the way around.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
gay
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
100 MPH by the way
Goose - October 8, 2010
bahaha
wow…
FairWeatherFred - October 8, 2010
The Phillies have had unbelievably good luck in this game.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Anyone else think now's a good time for a speedboat to Cuba?
yuniform - October 8, 2010
Just let it go
He’s the Royals’ problem now.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Looks like a cerrtain someone has found a new team to follow!
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Obviously Aroldis Chapman can't handle the pressure of playing in the playoffs.
Slurvey - October 8, 2010
100,100 in Ibanez at bat.
Goose - October 8, 2010
That was sadness.
beastwarking - October 8, 2010
MILLIONS OF ERRORS!
joof - October 8, 2010
Does anyone else hear an infernal, high-pitched whistling before every pitch?
It makes me want to sodomize every Phillies fan with a vuvuzela.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
And blow?
beastwarking - October 8, 2010
WHatever you do, don't inhale.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
99,97(slowest fastball so far),87
Goose - October 8, 2010
So...
Utley to first pretending to be hit by a pitch, Utley then called safe at second incorrectly, Bruce loses ball in the lights allowing Utley to score, Phillips then drops the relay throw allowing Werth to score. Hm.
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
I'm pretty sure he was hit by the pitch.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Replay says otherwise.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
No way
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
You forgot that Utley may not have touched third base.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
Oh and Utley misses third and gets away with it!
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Well, then you didn't forget. My mistake.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
I almost did!
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Utley also may or may not have touched third base when he scored.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Sweeney time!
ThundaPC - October 8, 2010
Sweendawg!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
SWEENDAWG!
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
SWEENEY!
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
100,95,98
Goose - October 8, 2010
...
Decatur - October 8, 2010
I thought the one thing Sweeney was supposed to have was power. That was a weak hit.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
Good job you stupid commie.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Suddenly it's so obvious why he chose the Reds.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
I think the nick name, "Cuban Missile" is unfortunate and penetrates the hearts of compatriots everywhere
beastwarking - October 8, 2010
This has been an remarkable wonderful year for Sweeney.
ThundaPC - October 8, 2010
I like Nick Masset's name.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
In many ways, I am glad we traded Sweeney
Because now look where he is.
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
I'm glad we traded him because I don't like him.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
That's too bad. He's probably the most likeable guy in the world, really
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
You should hear how he feels about babies and unicorns.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
Or snitchin' motherfuckers.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Except for the teammates he threatened to fight this year...
TIFO - October 8, 2010
He also beat the crap out of a pitcher, once
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
...and then Raul Ibanez and Mike Sweeney got hits
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Lost in the white towels?
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
.
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Sorry
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
I love that they tired the dick towels into the boat episode.
Goose - October 8, 2010
tied rather
Goose - October 8, 2010
Dennis' speech about 'the implication' is mind-blowing
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Yeah that whole conversation was fantasic.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Come on Rolan, you fucktard.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
*Rolen
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
Philly fans booing Rolen is like Mariner fans booing A-Rod.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Except A-Rod is a douche
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
My point still remains.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Actually, he's a total pimp, and what a sharp dresser!
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Well, the ladies do love a douche, I guess
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
Yes
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
That's his Dominican sister.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
I'm not sure if she's Domincan
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
You can't hear her accent in the picture.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
Holy shit.
It’s like the fucking Keystone Kops out there.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
That is such a bizarre Scottish accent in the Sounders-Celtic FC friendly commercial.
He almost sounds like he’s trying to do a Cool Runnings accent.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Reds
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Mock cheers are the best.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Holy geez Sandoval is a fat fuck.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
He's not called Fat Ichiro for nothing!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
But Worth is better than Howard.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
$125M contract doesn't start till 2012!
Goose - October 8, 2010
GIANTS!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Yeah, moving on.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
GIANTS!!
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
So the Reds are boned.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Fuck this.
LET’S GO GIANTS
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Well poop
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
Are the Giants on TBS too?
Decatur - October 8, 2010
They'll start on TNT, then move to TBS when the Phillies are done.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
TNT for the moment
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Thank goodness for Ted Turner's ego.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
"The Phillies just do not let you up for air." Ew.
BRKLN M'S - October 8, 2010
GIANTSSSSSSSSSSS
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Let's Go Braves, just so that we have at least one series that goes past 3 games.
Goose - October 8, 2010
I don't remember what channel TNT is
::sigh::
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
You should get the internet.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
My local listing lists TNT as the channel that is actually FSN
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
Ahaha they're walking Ibanez to face Ruiz.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Looks like they're walking Ruiz, too.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
Those two women behind home plate are the most annoying bandwagon fans ever.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
OK, I'm officially on the Giants bandwagon.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Welcome!
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Count me in. Fuck the Phillies.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
Jason Heyward or Buster Posey?
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
For RotY? Or "Would you rather..."? What do you mean?
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Who is better?
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Heyward is better.
But positional adjustment might make Posey more valuable.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
Wouldn't that make Posey better?
Decatur - October 8, 2010
OK, you can stay on the bandwagon
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
What kind of animal is pulling the wagon?
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Panda.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Chris Denorfia
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
No.
Heyward is a much better athlete and is 2 years younger. However, you don’t find too many catchers who hit like Posey, making him more valuable.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
I believe the question was mainly in jest, intended to root out whether or not Decatur got to stay on the Giants bandwagon
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
He passed!
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Knock knock.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Who's there?
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Heyward.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Heyward sucks
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
*Heyward who?
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Heyward Jablomi!
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Threesome!
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
This game is already worse than last night
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
COMMUNICATE YOU IDIOTS
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Sad Panda.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
Falling down is funny.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
That's about 500 pounds of mass between the two colliding.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Uh... you can HEAR Posey call for it
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
...
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Stupid Reds.
Goose - October 8, 2010
I will not be pleased if all these series end up in sweeps.
wazzu93 - October 8, 2010
But Giants.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
GIANTS!!
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
I totally want the Giants but goddamnit, all playoff baseball should always be at least 4 of 5. The season is almost over. :(
wazzu93 - October 8, 2010
It might cause Selig to have a coronary, which might be cool.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
If they do, Lincecum/Halladay might be the most anticipated playoff matchup since Johnson/Clemens.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Giants win 1-0 on Lincecum solo homer in the sixth
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
I dunno, Roy was the one with the RBI in his start.
FairWeatherFred - October 8, 2010
His career ISO is .020
Decatur - October 8, 2010
I actually had to wonder for a second if that was higher or lower than Josh Wilson's
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
It's such crap that Freddy Sanchez gets to put three time All-Star on his resume
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
And that Felix didn't make the All-Star team this year
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Crap
Goose - October 8, 2010
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
PAT THE BAT!
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
PAT BURRELL!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
IT'S LIKE DAVID HASSELHOFF COMING BACK AND STARRING ON THE BEST SHOW ON TELEVISION
Decatur - October 8, 2010
I wonder how they'd work him into season 6 of The Wire.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
Oh right.
Because Facts of Life isn’t on anymore.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
The Rays must really be kicking themselves right now.
FairWeatherFred - October 8, 2010
Because they are down 0-2 and couldn't even get no-hit by Roy Halladay?
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
URIBE!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
UUUUU
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
(You're supposed to say "RIBE!")
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
I supposed that you were grunting in assent.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Haha not quite, it's a popular AT&T chant.
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
Wouldn't the properly spelled start to this chant be "YOUUUUU"
I’d just eff it up by blurting out the name of Yunel Escobar or somebody.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
The properly spelled start of this chant would be "ooooooo"
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
I feel like knowing the chants would push me a little too far past bandwagon status.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Holy shit yes PLEASE argue that play.
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
Bobby Cox ejected?
/surpriseface.jpg
Goose - October 8, 2010
No matter what happens, they cannot eject Bobby Cox in an elimination game
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Would sum up his career perfectly, though.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
If anything, it would be fitting for Cox's last action as a Manager is to be ejected.
Goose - October 8, 2010
This ejection will give Bobby Cox more time to do the things he enjoys in life, like beating up his wife.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
And drinking!
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
I honestly think Huff's foot was on the base. What about you?
Decatur - October 8, 2010
That was pretty close, but I don't think it was.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
I want to see another replay.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
It looks like he kept his toe on long enough for the catch, and then slipped off.
But – bias.
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
From the angle the umpire was looking at, being 1-inch off the base would be difficult to see.
He wasn’t on the base, but I can’t argue with the call.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
It looked to me that he held the bag until the ball was in the glove.
Then he was pulled off before Gonzalez crossed the bag so it looked to him like he was pulled off.
Droid Rage - October 8, 2010
Yes, they intentionally walked him last night.
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
I thought Melky was supposed to be a decent fielder. The form of that throw was Ibanezque.
yuniform - October 8, 2010
Yankee hype.
w00tah - October 8, 2010
FUCK YEAH MATT CAIN
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Are you shitting me?
Goose - October 8, 2010
NOPE
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
Ahahahahaha
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
It blows my mind Matt Cain is only 26 years old.
Wilder. - October 8, 2010
I remember when him and Felix both came up, there were some people who actually compared Cain to Felix.
Goose - October 8, 2010
FUCK NO MATT CAIN
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Cain owned Tommy Hansen even more than Abel.

Sean Casey says bullshit..
Goose - October 8, 2010
I want that.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
Sure hope there aren't any Braves supporters 'round here
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
Not a Brave supporter per say, just a don't want to see all sweeps supporter.
Goose - October 8, 2010
This is a mind-numbingly boring game.
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
It's not THAT boring, but it's not gonna hold my attention all night.
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
Yeah, it is pretty boring.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Has there ever been a post season wherein every team swept their DS?
kevin_ess - October 8, 2010
Nope.
Last year there were three sweeps and a four-game series and that’s the closest it’s been.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Baseball reference says in 2007 there were 3 sweeps and a 3-1 (Indians-Yanks) series.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Yep, missed that one at first glance.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Aw they scored :(
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
... The tying run is at the plate?
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
"Posey, Buster Posey. He's going home for Game 3. He's from Georgia, where he... grew up."
Joe Metro - October 8, 2010
I think Pat the Bat just hates the AL.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Or Tampa
FaceRuiner - October 8, 2010
Buster Posey, at least in this series, has been the better rookie.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Ross almost ran into that hit trying to avoid it
seattlebruin - October 8, 2010
Wilson for a 6 out save?
Interesting
Goose - October 8, 2010
Brian Wilson reminds me of Neil Fallon.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
'Oh, this burning beard, I have come undone'
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Brian Wilson needs to grow the beard out more.
Then CM Punk would approve.
James F'n X - October 8, 2010
I bet Wilson could cut a killer promo.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Wilson couldn't possibly come to the Aardsma level of fastball useage.
Slurvey - October 8, 2010
SHITTING CHRIST
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Let's not make this too interesting, now.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Wait Pablo Sandoval is playing third?!
Slurvey - October 8, 2010
Why the fuck are you bunting Cox?
Goose - October 8, 2010
Results based analysis says it was a good move!
Slurvey - October 8, 2010
And I forgot Cox was ejected earlier.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Come on AGON
Griffin Cooper - October 8, 2010
Ruh-ohz
ThundaPC - October 8, 2010
Whoops.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Hot damn!
Goose - October 8, 2010
NONONONONO
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
WOOO
FUCK BRIAN WILSON
Griffin Cooper - October 8, 2010
I NEVER REALLY LIKED THE BEACH BOYS ANYWAY
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Let Lincecum close, obviously.
James F'n X - October 8, 2010
That facial hair can't be real.
truemsfan - October 8, 2010
Craig Kimbrel's gameday photo makes him look 14.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Kimbrel is a fucking monster.
40 Ks in his first 20 MLB innings!
Decatur - October 8, 2010
And 5 Ks in 7 batters tonight!
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Who in the blazes is this fellow?
Decatur - October 8, 2010
This Kimbrel guy is pretty good.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Extras!
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Sextras!
Slurvey - October 8, 2010
That was the scariest warning track fly out I've ever seen.
Decatur - October 8, 2010
Krukow on the radio
“McCann just got AT&T’d!”
Goose - October 8, 2010
Uh oh's.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Hell of a way to end a career for Wagner if the Braves get swept.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Oh noes. :(
wazzu93 - October 8, 2010
That's gotta hurt.
truemsfan - October 8, 2010
Keep going, Farnsworth!
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Come on, Buster!
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
D'oh.
wazzu93 - October 8, 2010
FUCK!
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Gutsy decision.
joey90 - October 8, 2010
AWESOME
Griffin Cooper - October 8, 2010
This is some bullshit.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
ANKIEL!!
Goose - October 8, 2010
ANKIEL
Griffin Cooper - October 8, 2010
Goddammit.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Oh shit
That was actually a pretty awesome homerun
FairWeatherFred - October 8, 2010
Wow-gotta root for anything Rick Ankiel does.
wazzu93 - October 8, 2010
Ok, I drop the rellies off, and turn on the radio to finally get some baseball today
and Chris Berman (Chris Berman?!?!) tells me Billy Wagner got hurt (what happened?) and implies Bobby Cox and a bunch of others are gone as well?
what happened?
msb - October 8, 2010
Chris Back Back still sucks at announcing baseball, Wagner pulled something on a pitch, Bobby Cox snapped a radish and got tossed-that's all I know.
wazzu93 - October 8, 2010
You have Jon Miller doing radio for the postseason
and you don;t assign him to the Giants game?
really?
msb - October 8, 2010
THAT"S WHAT I SAID!
wazzu93 - October 8, 2010
Wagner appeared to hurt his oblique originally running after Renteria's bunt base hit to start the 10th.
It wasn’t until after he fielded the sacrifice by the next hitter that it really started to hurt, and he came out without protest.
Cox was tossed in the second inning on a close play at first.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
Sort of appropriate :)
thanks.
I’ve been having withdrawal.
msb - October 8, 2010
Now let Ankiel get the save!
w00tah - October 8, 2010
That would be the most awesome thing ever.
Goose - October 8, 2010
Disagree.
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
I still remember watching him pitch in that exhibition game vs the Ms in 2001
painful.
msb - October 8, 2010
I still remember him pitching in the 2000 playoffs. Infinitely more painful.
Poochie - October 8, 2010
Yup. 2001 was in person, though.
msb - October 8, 2010
The glasses that The Professor wears in his gameday photo are amazing.
JY - October 8, 2010
Why thank you
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
FOCUSSSSSS
JY - October 8, 2010
What the duce?
Goose - October 8, 2010
Like I was saying....
JY - October 8, 2010
LATE
Goose - October 8, 2010
It's like...
he should be wearing a nametag, and a brooch, and perhaps have a small beehive hairdo underneath his hat to complete the ensemble.
JY - October 8, 2010
I will give you $12 if you wear that for Halloween.
wazzu93 - October 8, 2010
Maybe one of these years....
JY - October 8, 2010
You'd look good in a beehive.
msb - October 8, 2010
I think those were the glasses I picked whan I made my Mad Men avatar
msb - October 8, 2010
Woooooooo finally
Griffin Cooper - October 8, 2010
Bummer.
At least they won’t all be sweeps.
drblacknwhite - October 8, 2010
:(
Eyeball Kid - October 8, 2010
Yay! No sweep, more baseball!
truemsfan - October 8, 2010
That will make the guy I saw downtown wearing the McCann jersey happy
msb - October 8, 2010
Holy shit, Roy Oswalt and Bronson Arroyo are the same age?
Seems like Oswalt has been around for a million years.
JAH - October 8, 2010
Arroyo has been around longer, actually, I'm pretty sure.
Just not relevant as long as Oswalt has been.
Arroyo played about 3 seasons of borderline crap in Pittsburgh before he went to the Red Sox and really started his career, if I remember correctly.
