is something many teams do. It may not be justified, but if Jeff Mathis is hitting really fucking good, and he can play defense, they’ll keep him in for a while. It won’t last, and they know that. They’ve watched Mathis play for a while.
I’m disappointed with his performance because I knew how great he was in 2007.
Groundballs, better than average walk rate, and a pretty good K rate…
All of it disappeared in 2008 and it hasn’t come back and I keep expecting it to, if only just for a start or two…
But I'm saying that just because the missed call was on that strike,
Using linear game to say what would have happened is almost as bad as using errors to measure defense. If Ichiro isn’t running (which was a decision we made), its 1 out with Guti up and Ichiro at 1B.
If I see them be more open to appeal calls that they couldn’t see and/or explore the option of instant replay further. They are supposed to get it right but their primary focus appears to be to have their power unquestioned.
I was on board from the beginning
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Choo Choo!
msb - April 18, 2010
I wish we had Shin-Soo...
Kevman22 - April 18, 2010
I miss Ben Broussard more.
Omerta - April 18, 2010
This is a lie.
Omerta - April 18, 2010
Oh, we had him all right
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
I was waiting to post until the new thread was up
magistermilitum - April 18, 2010
Once everyone starts to love him I will turn on him
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
I love Kotchima!
Omerta - April 18, 2010
To answer your questions, Hall was the wrong kind of black
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Black and bad
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Bradley is bad
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Ass
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Bad-ass
jtopps - April 18, 2010
Ass is ass
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
He's like the Michael Jackson of baseball
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Whereas white and bad is perfectly okay
Willie!
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Sean White?
jtopps - April 18, 2010
The lowest tolerance appears to be for
European and bad.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Indeed
Managers like white and bad
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Because they're future managers!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
But only if they used to be white and bad
JLC - April 18, 2010
Not true.
Wak was Asian and bad, but he likes Rob Johnson.
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Yes but Rob Johnson sort of has squinty eyes like a Chinamen.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
Wak is Asian
like I’m German
Note: I’m not German.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Don Wakamatsu
is clearly of Japanese ancestry.
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Is he a bad tipper or something?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Wakamatsu is a Japanese last name.
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Reggie Willits
is a black name.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Now you're just being a retard.
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Wak is a such a banana.
JLC - April 18, 2010
What about ken Griffey Jr?
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
He's white
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
But his favorite TV show is The Cosby Show
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
He doesn't even drink fruit-flavored soda
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
He drinks fruit flavored fruit juice instead.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
x
Big Jared - April 18, 2010
I see they now make this in can-form.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
He's an older generation black person
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Does Mt. Dew count?
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Like white people
Double06 - April 18, 2010
No Tony Gwynn is wihte
Poochie - April 18, 2010
This isn't an either/or scenario
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Griffey strikes me as being an oreo
Poochie - April 18, 2010
I think he's a twinkie
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
He's not asian!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
what!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Well if you believe that you are what you eat, then Griffey is a twinkie.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
He's a dog
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
That's McGriff!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Oh I forgot they were colorblind
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Needs more dingers.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Ichiro leading off
Let’s get the rally started!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
As long as I can also hop aboard Kanekoa.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
Sorry did I fuck it up by posting too much?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
We should get the Angels to somehow give us Napoli.
In a sneaky 3 team trade.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Snell + Rob Johnson for Napoli
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
They're not giving up Napoli.
They’re not dumb. They’re well aware that Jeff Mathis usually sucks.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Snell + Rob Johnson for Napoli!!!!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
So why is he starting?
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Fernando Rodney
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
That's why they keep playing Napoli instead of him
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Riding an offensive hot streak
is something many teams do. It may not be justified, but if Jeff Mathis is hitting really fucking good, and he can play defense, they’ll keep him in for a while. It won’t last, and they know that. They’ve watched Mathis play for a while.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
They've always let him play too much
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Perhaps, but not to this degree
And this one 13 game stretch has got people believing they’ve given up on Napoli or something.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
I don't see how any of this makes the Angels not dumb
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
They've been playing Mathis over Napoli for years
Napoli has been good that whole time, Mathis has sucked that whole time. They don’t like him for some reason.
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Because Mike Scoscia has the same blind spot all former catchers have
Aaron Campeau - April 18, 2010
Hop on pop!
Poochie - April 18, 2010

msb - April 18, 2010
Damn you and your closing!!!
I had a witty reply I was trying to make!!!
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
Sean White, nooooooooooo
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
So, here's Kotchman sparkling.
Although it really does look more like confetti…
katal - April 18, 2010
That's, uh, not Casey Kotchman.
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
God
thought I was going crazy for a moment…
Omerta - April 18, 2010
Somehow that does not look like Kotchman
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
Um.
Lee?
msb - April 18, 2010
It really does look more like Lee
jtopps - April 18, 2010
You know what, it does.
It looks a lot like Lee.
But I really believed that a Google Image Search wouldn’t lie.
Sigh.
katal - April 18, 2010
That ain't Kotchman.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
That's also Cliff Lee.
dkulich - April 18, 2010
Kotchman's out of shot, sparkling so much it made it into this photo.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Ah makes perfect sense...
Great shot then.
dkulich - April 18, 2010
Wat.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
You do realize this is the Lee?
magistermilitum - April 18, 2010
Que?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
That's not Kotchman
Rollo Tomasi - April 18, 2010
Kotchman?
You look… different
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
Raben doubled
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
He's sparkling so hard he turned into another guy!
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
You fool!
/piling on
Goose - April 18, 2010
Well that's embarassing.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
Scruffy, left-handed, and white? Yes
Casey Kotchman? No.
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
Here's Kotchman
JLC - April 18, 2010
He looks serious.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
He's a serious guy.
msb - April 18, 2010
Holy shit we got two Cliff Lee's from that deal
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Random!
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
This isn't Casey Kotchman at all
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Bah humbug.
katal - April 18, 2010
Mine looks like gnats.
msb - April 18, 2010
Let's just give that to Scruffy and have him throw in some lens flare.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
Props for having the right player in the photo.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
For real
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
We should have a 20-comment subthread about how correct it is.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
Wow, I forgot that Valverde had signed with the Tigers.
Goose - April 18, 2010
ICHIRO
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
ICHI
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Woohoo
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
I hope Ichiro doesn't try to steal.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
Why not?
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Close game, I'd rather not risk an out.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
I forgot Aviles is catching today
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
I hope he freezes on a line drive to right field
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
Go pop single!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
I love Ichiro
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
YES UMP'S HELPING US!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Scherzer's Gameday photo has crazy eye.
JY - April 18, 2010
To continue on Snell...
I’m disappointed with his performance because I knew how great he was in 2007.
Groundballs, better than average walk rate, and a pretty good K rate…
All of it disappeared in 2008 and it hasn’t come back and I keep expecting it to, if only just for a start or two…
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Did Figgins just step away from the plate in that at bat?
Goose - April 18, 2010
Yep.
Really gave up on that pitch.
The Typical Idiot Fan - April 18, 2010
He doesn't swing anyway.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
This Ump is calling strikes balls and balls strikes. Oh no Figgins will strike out then!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Chone Figgins is fantastic
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Time for a WALK!
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
Only bad things can happen if Chone Figgins swings
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Not a strike!
Goose - April 18, 2010
Not even close to a strike
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
What the fuck?
A mile outside.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Inconsistent strike zone much, ump?
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
The hell kind of strike was that
Alto - April 18, 2010
What the fuck is wrong with this ump?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Enough with this fucking camera angle, FSN
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
That is terrible.
Omerta - April 18, 2010
Fuck.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
BALLS
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING ON THE GOD DAMN BASEPATHS
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
Oh he stole...whoops.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
It was a 3-2 count
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Well FUCK.
There goes that fucking inning.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
That was fucking awful
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
WHAT!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
FUCK
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
FUCK UMPIRES
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
We are the stupidest team of all time
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
We're just annoying, Jeff.
Both positively and negatively.
JY - April 18, 2010
Fuck it.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
That was shitty
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
Hey look! More baserunning mistakes!
Goose - April 18, 2010
Should be men on first and second.
katal - April 18, 2010
Seriously?
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Motherfucker
Alto - April 18, 2010
That was the worst decision in the history of MLB
JLC - April 18, 2010
You must of missed the Eric Byrnes insanity earlier.
Goose - April 18, 2010
This was much worse
JLC - April 18, 2010
To be fair, that was really Kotchman's fault and you can't blame Byrnes for trying to make something out of it.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Fucking bullshit.
Chone should be standing on 1B with a fucking walk.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
FUCK
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
So, ball four is strike 2 and then that happens.
Thanks blue. Thanks for keeping the game linear.
The Typical Idiot Fan - April 18, 2010
We didn't do any favors to ourselves there either.
dkulich - April 18, 2010
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
Guti will make up for our shitty baserunning.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
Didn't you hear Mariners?
Bad Baserunning is a dead meme!
Omerta - April 18, 2010
Well, at least that killed The Wave.
msb - April 18, 2010
Guti bomb here.
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
SOLO SHOT FOR THE TIE
NICE ONE GUTI
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
God fucking dammit I hate umpires.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Guti!
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
GUTI SEX DOUBLE
Alto - April 18, 2010
THAT SHOULD BE RUNS FUCK THIS SHIT
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Oh look.
Tie fucking game.
God damnit.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
We should have two runs!!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
GOD THIS IS SO ANNOYING
seattlebruin - April 18, 2010
And now we'd either be tied or winning.
Thanks ump!
Goose - April 18, 2010
GUTI GUTI
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
God damnit, team
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Ugh
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
Fuck.
A double doesn’t satisfy me, considering how many men we should have had on base.
katal - April 18, 2010
We probably could've used that baserunner.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Guti is so fucking good
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
LOAFIE HERO MODE
seattlebruin - April 18, 2010
Loafie: Clutch mode engaged
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
I think our new aggressive baserunning approach is more annoying than last season's bunting fetish.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
But the latter worked
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
I think they should stop with the agressiveness
Or at least tone it down a little. Anything’s better than “run whenever”
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Perhaps we should combine the two!
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
COME ON LOAFIE
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Watch us not score!
Goose - April 18, 2010
Lopie, here's a good time to get back to your career average.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
Getting ourselves out is not playing like the Angels
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
You know, I like being aggresive
But with Ichiro on first with no outs, why? WHY?! WHY?!
OceanBird - April 18, 2010
That play is going to happen literally 1/100 times
seattlebruin - April 18, 2010
Not with the way we're running
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Line drive directly at the RF
Is unlikely.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
The way we're running had nothing to do with that double play
seattlebruin - April 18, 2010
Running with Ichiro on a 3-2 count isn't dumb that was just the worse case scenario.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
Letting other teams help us score is playing like the Angels
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
I bet the Angels didn't have to deal with this shit when they were annoying.
JLC - April 18, 2010
Play like the Angels you stupid fucks
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Lopez walk count: 2/50
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Our stupidity broke Fangraphs' gametracker.
JY - April 18, 2010
Do you think Wak is trying to emulate Mike Scioscia?
Double06 - April 18, 2010
HELL

Obvious
Goose - April 18, 2010
Christ
Double06 - April 18, 2010
I hate this fucking game
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Well that's a pretty swing
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
FACEPALM
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
F You Lopez.
Sean White time. Oh boy.
Should be fucking winning right now.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Oh well, maybe next time.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Hose Lopez sucks
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
And I'm his last fan!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
I wonder why no one wanted to trade for Lopez
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
If we lose this game now......God
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
It's okay, we'll rally in bottom 9th
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Dam it all. DAM IT ALL TO HELL!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
If that fucking ump does his job, that inning turns out a helluva lot different/better
Rudy4three - April 18, 2010
Not necessarily!
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
But still fuck the umpire in the ass with a sandpaper wrapped fire hydrant!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
But with 1st and 2nd, no outs and Guti at the plate you have to figure we would have gotten 1 across
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
You sure do!
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Ok the ump missed a strike call. Got it.
Doesn’t change the fact we also ran ourselves out of the inning.
dkulich - April 18, 2010
2
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Linear game.
If Chone had walked like he was supposed to, we probably wouldn’t have ran with runners on 2nd and 1st and nobody out.
Especially not with the heart of the order coming up.
The Typical Idiot Fan - April 18, 2010
But I'm saying that just because the missed call was on that strike,
Using linear game to say what would have happened is almost as bad as using errors to measure defense. If Ichiro isn’t running (which was a decision we made), its 1 out with Guti up and Ichiro at 1B.
dkulich - April 18, 2010
Guti tried to steal
JLC - April 18, 2010
I think this team believes they have less power than they actually have
JLC - April 18, 2010
Adam Jones loses a flyball in the sun.
Whoops!
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Figures
When do they A’s not get lucky? They’ll score 50 runs this inning.
OceanBird - April 18, 2010
And they call it a hit.
Why WHIP is a stupid statistic pt. 290842907.
dkulich - April 18, 2010
Griffey will homer to tie the game next inning
Poochie - April 18, 2010
We're already tied
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Idiot
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Not-uh
let’s check with Fogel
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Yep
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Extras!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
I find this outcome unlikely
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Guy or a girl dancing there?
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
I love the Rays crushing the Red Sox.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
The Red Sox are five games behind New York and Tampa
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
What are their playoff chances now?
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Lower
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Yes I was thinking like percentage-wise
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
No idea
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Less than 45%
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
But more than 35%
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Sholdn't have signed Beltre
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Maybe we can trade for him at the deadline.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Guess this proves that defense doesn't win championships after all.
katal - April 18, 2010
They are at -6 runs!
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Jailbait section
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
Must write down for future reference.
w00tah - April 18, 2010
Chone White is due to give up a run here
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
But he has a 0.00 ERA!
What.
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Hey why couldn't they have left Texeira in for one more inning
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Cuz it's Sean White, bieeetch~
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Sean White!
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Not cool Wilson
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
Well nice fucking play there Jack.

GOD DAMN IT SNELL WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU
JLC - April 18, 2010
Huh?
Rollo Tomasi - April 18, 2010
I'm not a huge fan of Ian Snell
Not gonna lie
JLC - April 18, 2010
Sure, but why say this now?
Rollo Tomasi - April 18, 2010
I just realized I spent the last 2 hours watching an Ian Snell start
JLC - April 18, 2010
-9.3% WE on that error
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Jack Wilson sucks
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Nice try, Jack.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Ugh why Sean White... Texeira is much better against lefties.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010

Tigers are supposed to be the ones with shitty defense
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
Now we know why Jeter got Gold Glove!
Ha now I’m just saying random stupid things
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Dam it I'm sad right now. We should be winning! WINNING!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
I can't believe I stay inside to watch Ian Snell starts
JLC - April 18, 2010
I am not enamored that Sean White is currently in this game
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Has someone tried a deep-fried cheesburger?
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Hows that work?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
You build a cheeseburger and fry it
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
The buns too?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Ya I think so
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Heart attack?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Well I seen someone deep fry bacon
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Heart attack #2?

Only in America

You're not aware of Scottish cuisine then?
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Deep fried butter made it's debut at the Texas state fair last year-blech.
wazzu93 - April 18, 2010
you make the burger, coat it with a batter, fry it?
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
I would imagine the same way deep-fried everything else works.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
My question is
Is it just the stuff inside, or the whole burger is deep fried?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Dicks are almost fried.
LonelyintheBleachers - April 18, 2010
No, I like my heart
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
I'm sure someone has.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Here comes the inevitable Guillen dinger
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
I want Dave Sims to do another Chris Rock impression
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
White people shouldn't quote Chris Rock.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Important to IBB the righty
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Holy shit
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
WOO HOO WAK MADE A GOOD DECISION
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
There have been a ton of spectacular looking DPs this season but that one might top them all.

Two Rs and Two Ls - April 18, 2010

lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Double plays are so sexy.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
So that was beautiful
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Well that was good
JLC - April 18, 2010

He looks like a teddy bear!

Teddy Bears can draw a damn walk.

I have heard they are delicious
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Your arteries will hate you
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
That things looks gross
Why would anyone eat that?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Just so you can say you did.
Goose - April 18, 2010
It actually looks amazing
But I don’t want to die by the time I’m 40
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Oh god I do.
Life after 40 looks awful.
rbr07 - April 18, 2010
Just from one?!?
Poochie - April 18, 2010
One is never just one
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
A Whopper is actually worse for you
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Bread from a fast food restaurant is not healthy for you either
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Yumsies
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Because bread is horrible for you?
Of course fast food isn’t really better
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
Is it really that hard to eat whole grain bread intead
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Whole grain is just as bad as other grain
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
Not another one of these
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Sorry boss
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Would you care to discuss the benefits of Dr. Aaron's Old-Tyme Rejuvenating Cobra Tonic?
Aaron Campeau - April 18, 2010
I'll take a case.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
Bread isn't horrible for you...
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
I LOST 30 POUNDS JUST FRYING FUCKING EVERYTHING IT'S SCIENCE BITCHES!!!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Wow
No
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Meat is the new bread.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
And the obesity rate reaches new highs...
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Yeah, that bread is horrible for you
Gotta go with the fried chicken
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Fried chicken also bad
But the concept of a no bread sandwich is good
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
No it's not, that's not a sandwich.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
YA CRAZY FIGGER! WOO!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
EVERYONE HIT TRIPLES
NO DIFFICULT BASERUNNING DECISIONS THERE
JLC - April 18, 2010
Nah Byrnes would try home.
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Well then put him on a leash
JLC - April 18, 2010
You can't. He has a no-leash clause.
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Shock collar
JLC - April 18, 2010
That will only make him run more.
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Bullet to the back of the head
JLC - April 18, 2010
Ever cut the head off a chicken?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Fuck Eric Byrnes
JLC - April 18, 2010
That is not a suggestion
JLC - April 18, 2010
Too late.
It was a bit frenetic.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Squeeze?
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
Homers are much less difficult.
But we don’t really do that.
dkulich - April 18, 2010
Pinch hit!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Griff blast?
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Time to justify your place on the team, Junior.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
Pinch hit for Griffey.
Why else would Sweeney be on this team?
Rollo Tomasi - April 18, 2010
Hugs
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
To empty the surplus soda
jtopps - April 18, 2010
Griffey looks stupid against Lefties.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
How misleadingly specific
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
This is the kind of ridiculously unlikely scenario that will result in Griffey homering.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
bound to happen
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
SEE!!!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Almost.
JLC - April 18, 2010
Cmon Griffey
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
That kid probably wasn't even alive when Griffey was good.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
FUCK GRIFFEY
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Somehow I knew that wouldn't end well
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Oh wait
I know how I knew that
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
GriffeyLent is never going to end.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
I had not yet heard it called that and I'm a big fan.
Torrid - April 18, 2010
Surprised face.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
How did Griffey hit 19 home runs last year
Fett42 - April 18, 2010
I was wondering about this same thing last night.
LonelyintheBleachers - April 18, 2010
Wind?
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
He literally built the ballpark to his own specifications
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
I don't think Griffey literally built the ballpark, but I could be wrong.
He’s also been to space.
LonelyintheBleachers - April 18, 2010
It was built for the way he hits
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
I understand this. I was just being a dickface.
LonelyintheBleachers - April 18, 2010
Pfft. Everyone knows Jay did the actual building.
msb - April 18, 2010

Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
Now is the time to pinch hit Milton Bradley damit
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Byrnes taking Coke deep would have been too perfect
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
I'm really displeased right now.

Hey look
Byrnes popped out. Didn’t see that coming at all
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Oh Byrnes.... Batting 6th...

Hit for the cycle Kotch
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
Rob Johnson behind the plate!
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
I'm sure glad we traded him.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
That was Rob Johnson-esque!
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Hello.
Wake up call for the umpire.
The Typical Idiot Fan - April 18, 2010
Didn't even react.

The Typical Idiot Fan - April 18, 2010
Nice catch, Gerald Laird
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Yeah, fucking Laird.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Changing his name to Avila so people won't hate him.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Three of the letters are the same
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
This was a pointless comment
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Almost every comment is pointless.

Life is pointless
jtopps - April 18, 2010
Time for a Double Down
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
The fastest way to death

That's what I'm sayin
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Don't be such a Snell
JLC - April 18, 2010
I'm setting an example
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
We frown on those here at Lookout Landing
JLC - April 18, 2010
Isn't Laird on the bench today?
jtopps - April 18, 2010
No
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Phil Coke apparently makes LH Batters look ridiculous.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Kotch is doing his best Chone impression
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
No Fucking Colome
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
Please get on base Kotch so Adam Moore isn't leading off the 8th.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Shit. That then leaves Wilson.
Gross.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
WALK WALK WALK
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010

Yay!
Now Moore and Wilson!
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Nice AB by Kotchman.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
The Katchman walks a lot
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
NOW you pinch hit Bradley
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Then that leaves Robo Rob to catch
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
We can never pinch hit for a catcher because we always need someone "just in case shit goes down"
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
TUI!
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Can Tui catch too?????!!!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Is he the emergency catcher?
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
He was the one getting ready when it looked like Moore might have been injured after replacing Rob Johnson
So I guess so.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Ok maybe not, we don't have Garko anymore
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Bradleys injured or something
soreness in leg I think
jackyz - April 18, 2010
But he was swinging the bat earlier in the game
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
He took batting practice
jackyz - April 18, 2010
Casey's having a good game.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Hey Adam
Swing hard
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
WALK HARD!
LonelyintheBleachers - April 18, 2010
Make contact too
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Moore breakout time.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
At the very least get hit in the butt, and take your base.
msb - April 18, 2010
Moore, this is probably the most important at bat of your life
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
Agreed
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Has Moore hit a HR in his career yet?
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
He did last year.
JY - April 18, 2010
Ok thanks
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
WHAT THE HELL???
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Are you serious
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Free Rob Johnson!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Seriously? Bunt?
What the fuck?
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
That was stupid
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
What the hell Adam?
BrianL - April 18, 2010
What the fuck was the point of that?
Goose - April 18, 2010
Wait, seriously?
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Um...
2 out bunt? What the fuck?
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
They'll never see it coming!
katal - April 18, 2010
He has to cut down on those strikeouts.
They look bad on the stat sheet.
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Yeah that was a fantastic idea
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
DAMIT TRADE FOR NAPOLI!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Jesus that was the dumbest thing that we've done in this game.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
What the fuck,
w00tah - April 18, 2010
HE'S A CATCHER
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
HUH?
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
Hmmmmmmm......
Nojf33 - April 18, 2010
Awesome strategy, M's!
You’re doing great!
James F'n X - April 18, 2010
That was a short return to commercial break.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
That could not have possibly been dumber
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Um....What?
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
Ok...
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
Great at bat.
MFAN - April 18, 2010
That was a silly thing for a catcher to do.
JY - April 18, 2010
What the fuck was that
Alto - April 18, 2010
I honestly don't think Moore is any better than Johnson.
I hate both of them.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
One has upside. The other has the motor skills of that kid in the booth.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
He blocks pitches.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Scratch that, he catches pitches.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
I fucking hate baseball.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Hey at least we have Wilson coming up...oh wait
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
HE'S A CATCHER AND THERE'S TWO OUTS
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Z GO GET NAPOLI NOW!!!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Seriously?
JLC - April 18, 2010
So we got The Jesus Column coming to the mound?
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
HAHA WHAT
BRKLN M'S - April 18, 2010
Moore should be sent down. When you are bunting in that situation you are
admitting you have no confidence at the plate. Go to AAA.
Rudy4three - April 18, 2010
Or you see the third baseman back and you've been having a shitty day
I don’t think it was a smart decision, but I don’t think it was a lack of confidence either.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
He didn't appear to be back, Moore isn't fast, Inge is a great 3B.
Bad, bad decision.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
I think we're seeing a player who is having a hard time hitting ML pitching the first two weeks here
and he had little confidence he could hit the ball hard.
Rudy4three - April 18, 2010
If Wak called for that there's no fucking excuse
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
I'm sure he didn't
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
I'm really not a fan of him allowing the players to steal and bunt at will when they don't seem to have any clue when they should
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Yeah I think he should restrict it to non-catchers.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Or non-retards
JLC - April 18, 2010
Moore is not the only one who's been stupid
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Seriously?
JLC - April 18, 2010
This team needs a brain.
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
That was the closest thing baseball is every going to see to an auto out.
Goose - April 18, 2010
That has to be the dumbest thing I've ever seen in a baseball game.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
You should watch more baseball
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
He is such a train wreck.
LonelyintheBleachers - April 18, 2010
This, although hillarious,
is not as dumb as bunting with a catcher with 2 outs down 1 in the 7th inning.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
I disagree
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
But holy fucking shit this is hilarious and think it's more funny every time I see it.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
It's the pose at the end
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
I hadn't noticed that before
and now it makes me giggle.
bluemax - April 18, 2010
Oh, for a "doink" sound effect.
msb - April 18, 2010
The best part is when he's pointing at the ball at the end.
Goose - April 18, 2010
It's not even a point it's like he can't find the instinct to act like he's throwing the ball in.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
Brandon Inge is a really good defender
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Wich should help the descision not to bunt
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Maybe Moore figured it was so unthinkably stupid they'd never expect it
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Game theory sure sounds retarded some times
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
God, is 3:17 too early for an adult beverage?
wazzu93 - April 18, 2010
hell no
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
It's about 4 hours and 17 minutes later than when I started.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
1:05 PM wasnt.
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
11am for wheat beer, 1 pm for lager
Trust me!
GermanMariner - April 18, 2010
Part of a nutritious diet!
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Adult beverage? Like going to one of those sexy espresso stands?
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Bikini Espresso just doesn't say 'sexy' to me, so much as it says nasty steam burns in tender places.
msb - April 18, 2010
Here comes The Jesus Column!
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Does Colome spent some time with Felix?
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
96 miles per hour does not mean much when you can't aim
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Throw Strikes Big Fucker!
PLU Tim - April 18, 2010
Goddammit why would you walk the leadoff man with Gerald Laird on deck
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Laird has been known to make pitchers pay.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
I fuckin knew it
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
My God
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Just setting up the double play!
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
What the fuck Jesus, throw strikes for Christ's sake
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
That may have been the most religious thing I've ever said
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Colome's sake**
Like his dad, or something.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Time to get fucked by The Jesus.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
STRIKE OUT BRIAN BRUNEY JUNIOR!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Throw. Strikes. You fucking fuck you.
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
He is
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
My bad
The ump’s blind as fuck
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
He is throwing strikes. They're just called balls
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
This is fucking stupid
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Hey every pitch this AB has been a strike
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Is this ump fucking serious?
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
It's been like this the entire game
JLC - April 18, 2010
Incompetent?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Yeah.
He missed 8 strikes on Snell last time I check Pitch F/X.
JLC - April 18, 2010
Strike.
Great work you waste of fucking space umpire.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Boo
Fucking boo.
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
This sucks
Alto - April 18, 2010
Who would have thought that using your 3 worst relievers back to back to back might come back to haunt you?!?!
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Well the ump wasn't going to let us get away with it, that's for sure.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Great thanks ump for forcing him to throw one right down the fucking middle.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Isn't it funny how the umps only ever seem to screw us, not the other team?
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
I thought this Jesus guy is supposed to be our savior
jackyz - April 18, 2010
Shun the non-believer!
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Game over
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
I have a deep dark sense of foreboding about this
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
Second and third, no out?
Who knew!
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
That's (indirectly) two HUGE breaks for the Tigers in this game
Because that fucker behind the plate can’t do the one fucking thing he’s supposed to do right.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Terrible things are happening.
JY - April 18, 2010
The Jesus meme needs to die.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
And come back in three days?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Jesus Christ what's your problem?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
It's better than the Colome puns
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
I disagree
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
I'm sitting on a golden Kanekoa pun
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Actually it's pretty bad
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Well you can't just tease us like that
JLC - April 18, 2010
I'll share my Aardsma pun that I've been sitting on
JLC - April 18, 2010
Does it have anything to do with a can of corn?
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
Well balls
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Don't worry, I'm sure no one read this
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
And you could always go with a cornucopia as well
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
Not anymore
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
What about mine about penises and vaginas?
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
I hope it substitutes Kanekoa in for "Can it go a"
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
and it's about penises and vaginas
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
It better not be the same Kanekoa been I've been thinking of
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Kanekoa pun*
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
His last name is actually de la Cruz maybe a compromise pun can be reached
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
A little of Colome, a little of Colome
Poochie - April 18, 2010
I agree...
2000 years of this nonsense is enough.
PLU Tim - April 18, 2010
Make no mistake, it's dead
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
SERIES WIN!
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Orioles coming to town!
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
They're bad!
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
They are horrible but with our luck today they'll sweep us.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
What does our luck today have to do with a future series?
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
The universe could continue carrying our bad luck into the next series? I don't know.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Matt FUCKIN Wieters! Can't wait.
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
.500!.... wait fuck.
JY - April 18, 2010
I do not like this umpire
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Scott Barry.
Write the name down for future reference.
JY - April 18, 2010
Who was that Opening Day ump in Oakland?
jtopps - April 18, 2010
Tim Tschida
Two Rs and Two Ls - April 18, 2010
Tschida
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
The majority of them
are incompetent, egotistical, entitled douchebags. You’ll run out of space on that list real fast.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Tell me how you really feel
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
I will adjust this opinion
If I see them be more open to appeal calls that they couldn’t see and/or explore the option of instant replay further. They are supposed to get it right but their primary focus appears to be to have their power unquestioned.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
We have at least four on the shit list, I think.
JY - April 18, 2010
What the fuck was that?
jackyz - April 18, 2010
Man this umpire is wack
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
One down!
Alto - April 18, 2010
YOU CANNOT HIT PAST THE JESUS COLUMN!!
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
First mental image I had was the Great Wall of Beltre
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
That worked out well
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
All is not lost!
Yet…
kschimke - April 18, 2010
There's still time!...
…to lose!
JY - April 18, 2010
Jesus Colome more like Jesus Christ!!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
HOW'D YOU COME UP WITH THAT
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Is Scott Barry one of those umps who doesn't give anything to a pitcher he hasn't seen before?
msb - April 18, 2010
He gives bonus points for veteran grit
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Try bunting Santiago
…I dare you
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
Sit him down right here
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Moore's doing great blocking those wild ones
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
THAT'S WHY ADAM MOORE IS NO ROB JOHNSON! HELL YEAH!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
FUCK YEAH
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
LOAFIE!!
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Fuck yes
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
Well. You're dumb Inge.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
He was told he was a cool dude when his 'bros' first caught a glimpse of his brand new tats
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Wow we do not deserve to be within one run
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
We have been so lucky today.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
There we are
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
TWO OUTS
Alto - April 18, 2010
Hooray
Poochie - April 18, 2010
This team defense is fucking awesome
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Solid play, Lopey.
Two Rs and Two Ls - April 18, 2010
LOPEY!
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Yeah!!!
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
Pezzer!
Double06 - April 18, 2010
Seriously how the fuck are we still in this game
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Sad thing is, it should be tied!
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
No we should be winning!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Untrue!
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Whoa this is working?
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
Whoa this was working?
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
Imagine how mad Tigers fans would be if we won this game
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
FUCK.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Fucking god damnit.
Zwakamatsu - April 18, 2010
Ahhh damnit
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
There's the expected outcome.
Omerta - April 18, 2010
Shocking
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Gay
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Poo.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
SHIT
Alto - April 18, 2010
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Fuck that.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
And we're fucked.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Almost got away with that inning.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Nads.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Somebody say they need a beer right now
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
They need a beer right now
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Kanekoa suffice?
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
That's the other one I was thinking of
JLC - April 18, 2010
Fuck it I hate this pun and this game
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Fuck it all
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
I need a beer right now
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Who needs a beer right now?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
You buying?
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
Want beer. Like beer. Beer good
msb - April 18, 2010
Shitballs
Held it off, literally, for as long as possible
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
How come our prospects aren't like Austin Jackson?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
You mean all of those folks that Bavasi got?
Do you really need to ask?
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Because he was a Yankee prospect.
We should get some of those.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Remeber the Erik Bedard trade?
Rollo Tomasi - April 18, 2010
Because we didn't trade Curtis Granderson for them?
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
We can trade Ian Snell?
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Terrible things!
JY - April 18, 2010
I knew this would happen
JLC - April 18, 2010
At least Jack Wilson is leading off the next inning!
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Bring in Milton!
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
That would be pretty great!
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
I'd approve of that.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
No emergency shortstop!
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Leave Milton there.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Or Sweeny
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
So when we were talking about a "rested bullpen" at the beginning of the game
Was that just in reference to the shitty parts?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Pretty much, yes.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
It's foreshadowing something bad
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Yes by all means walk Damon to get to Magglio Ordonez
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Why didn't he dive
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
That was an unexpected outcome
Goose - April 18, 2010
Lookout Landing!
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Uh, that's not Lookout Landing Dave
Aaron Campeau - April 18, 2010
Ryan Langerhans is likely just as good a pitcher as Colome
Corco - April 18, 2010
Great view of Lookout Landing! Shot OUT!
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
Wheres the dive'
BRKLN M'S - April 18, 2010
Wow...
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
SHOUT OUT!
Leanna - April 18, 2010
Oh god the apocalypse! It's coming!!!!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Holy shit! A guy with no history of command can't throw strikes!
Too bad Shawn Kelley’s gassed.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Yes, leave Colome in against Ordonez, this will work.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
This sucks
Alto - April 18, 2010
Please get out of this
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Really glad Langerhans isn't on this team!
MFAN - April 18, 2010
Here comes the part where we're boned.
Goose - April 18, 2010
That part already happened. Anything else here is just piling on.
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
We have to save our really good pitchers for the Juggernaut that is Baltimore.
msb - April 18, 2010
No, anything but Baltimore!
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
For the love of butt call a strike
JLC - April 18, 2010
For the Love of the Butt
jtopps - April 18, 2010
Wow.
I’m prepared for the worst.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Ordonez is 0-4. If this isn't foreshadowing, I don't know what is.
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
That's not really foreshadowing at all
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Foreshadowing would be him striking out or something...
Like he did.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Back to English 101 for you
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
Yay hockey's on see ya
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Bye Jeffy!
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Coyotes!
Also, fuck the Bruins
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
I don't even understand why you started a baseball blog
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
I think he might have been less into hockey then.
I still remember him mentioning the Sens back then though.
JY - April 18, 2010
It's April baseball and playoff hockey
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Yes baseball is great isn't it
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Rally time quitter!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
I still have this window and Gameday open and also a recall button
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
I don't understand how you can be a fan of two teams
Poochie - April 18, 2010
It's pretty unbelievable
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
I am terrified
Alto - April 18, 2010
What the hell 98?!
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Holy Fuck
Jesus threw 98 and got away with it
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
YES LET'S WARM SHAWN KELLEY NOW!!!!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Swinging strike!
BRKLN M'S - April 18, 2010
Miracle!
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
JESUS SAVES
Alto - April 18, 2010
We're losing and he made it worse
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
OH GOD RUN THE FUCK AWAY FROM THAT MOUND
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
COLOME
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Wow.
Does the Tigers bullpen suck?
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Yes kind of!
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Please please please Zumaya...
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
We are wonderfully fortunate.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Holy fuck Tigers fans have got to be PISSED
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Well we still have a small chance.
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
And Jack Wilson in the batter's box
Fuck.
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Pinch hitter?
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
Bunting?
msb - April 18, 2010
Of course not
Smegmalicious - April 18, 2010
KOLOME!
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
I hate moral victories
But at least the A’s are about to lose
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
Wilson, Ichiro, Figgins, Guti, Lopey...
Let’s do this
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
At least he throws like a Dominican
JLC - April 18, 2010
How are we not getting blown out?
BrianL - April 18, 2010
Tigers fans should be pissed as hell right now
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Josh Wilson is not building to the future.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
Oh god
I hope Jacko gets on so we can bring up Ichiro!
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Building to the Future: Josh Wilson!
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Egads, no!
JY - April 18, 2010
Wow, Josh Wilson's tearing it up in Tacoma
Guti style
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Get back soon Hannahan.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
Lord help us
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
The Tigers have left 30 men on base
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
NEED SOME MAGIC HERE PEOPLE
JLC - April 18, 2010
Two strikes already
I’m not shcoked.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010

Oh my god.

BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
YES YOU PUG FACED LITTLE FUCKER
I LOVE YOU
JLC - April 18, 2010

msb - April 18, 2010
ADORABLE
JLC - April 18, 2010
He needs a baseball cap.
msb - April 18, 2010
NO WAY!!
GermanMariner - April 18, 2010
Good Grief...
Jack Wilson is slow.
PLU Tim - April 18, 2010
No he's not
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Inge is just incredibly good.
Either of our catchers would have been out.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
That woulda been one helluva play
jackyz - April 18, 2010
Holy shit Inge is good at that
Double06 - April 18, 2010
HIT THAT HR NOW ICHIRO
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
He is trying.
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
I will lose my shit
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
Put his wife in the bleachers so he can flirt with her!!!
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Rally motherfucking caps.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Jack Wilson hit .211 in May the year he was good at the plate
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Enlightening!
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
Somehow this does not reassure me
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
What'd he do in April?
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
More
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
He also hit .125 in April one year when he was shitty
Trenchtown - April 18, 2010
But he's hitting .200 now so this is completely different
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Do not steal please
JLC - April 18, 2010
Whatever happened to that
old asian grandpa guy in the giant flamboyant asian outfit waving Japanese flags around for Ichiro in the stands?
kschimke - April 18, 2010
He died of SARS
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Sorry, that was fucked. My bad
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
That's terrible.
JY - April 18, 2010

He must forgotten his surgical mask at home one day.

ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
I can't imagine a more obnoxious player to play against
Than Ichiro.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
The Bless You Boys
blog was pretty funny today regarding Ichiro.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Patient Ichiro!
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
FUCK YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I like patient Ichiro.
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALK
Alto - April 18, 2010
Do you bunt here?
Schuxu - April 18, 2010

Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Plate discipline!
Double06 - April 18, 2010
Damn they are bringing in Valverde now aren't they?
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
NO THEY DIDNT WOO HOO
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Ichiwalk!
JY - April 18, 2010
CHONE WALK INC, THEN GUTI SEXY TIME GRAND SLAM EXPLOSION
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
Love it!
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
He bunted, noooo!
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
Figgy homer!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
LOAD EM UP FOR GUTI!
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
Figgy bunt time?
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Double steal?
msb - April 18, 2010
Don't you DARE!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
No thank you.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Odds that Wak calls for the bunt?
BrianL - April 18, 2010
I'd say pretty good
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Takes some balls to go from 0-2 to a walk.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
Take take take
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Figgins walks, Guti slams and David slams the door
PLEASE!
GermanMariner - April 18, 2010
NO DON'T BUNT
JBell523 - April 18, 2010
Figgins bunt single to fat Miggy IMO
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
DO NOT BUNT
TAKE TAKE TAKE
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Will a successful bunt make the WE go up in this situation?
Double06 - April 18, 2010
Well we're about to find out
Double06 - April 18, 2010
Logic!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
I was referring to Fangraphs' WE chart.
Or Jeff commenting. Either one.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
No
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Then I will join in the outrage.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
What about an unsuccessful bunt?
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Depends how
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Out with no advancement of the runners
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
You are stupid
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Ban me!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Now you are just blantantly trolling
Congratulations, you are Robert!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Don't like it since a walk advances the baserunner
Poochie - April 18, 2010
TAKE AGAIN
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Chone Figgins bunts because it means he doesn't have to swing the bat
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
He's the BJ Upton of swinging.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
HOW ABOUT TRY TAKING SOME PITCHES INSTEAD OF BUNTING
JLC - April 18, 2010
That was a strike anyway
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
I don't want to see Valverde in, since he is actually somewhat decent.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
DO NOT WANT
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
BUNT HR
Punkhazard - April 18, 2010
WHAT EVER
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
UGH
JBell523 - April 18, 2010

ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010

GUTI TIME GUTI TIME GUTI TIME
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
God I hate sacrifices.
I really do.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Unless Guti comes through here.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
There's no way this inning ends with an incredibly bad Jose Lopez AB.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
No way I tell you!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
This has been the most retarded game of all time.
Goose - April 18, 2010
I don't know how you can say that with a straight face after yesterday.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
It helps that I was at work so I was limited to gameday and gameday audio.
Goose - April 18, 2010
We won yesterday
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
I DON'T LIKE BUNTING
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Hmmm
I would have prefered an attempt to get on base but ohwell.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Well I guess they were strikes anyway if he was able to bunt them
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Go Frabklin Go.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
Guti needs a homer.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
I'm honestly not sure how to feel about the bunt.
JLC - April 18, 2010
Time to kick some names and take ass
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Double time.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
What was the WPA of this play?
I would guess it was negative.
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
-2.3%
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
-2.3
Says Fangraphs.
JY - April 18, 2010
Thanks guys
totaly forgot I could check myself.
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
At some point, I have to believe that Franklin stops doing everything right.
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
Stone the nonbeliever!
JY - April 18, 2010
Ssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
JLC - April 18, 2010
Yeah, when he's fifty.
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
You piece of shit
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
WTF
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Watch him walk Guti to get the force DP on Lopey
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
STEAL HOME
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Fuck, 2 strikes.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
GUTI TIME GUTI TIME GUTI TIME
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010

ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
FUCK YOUR ASS
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Fuck Fuck Fuck
svart aske - April 18, 2010
Ow now the low strike exists.
BrianL - April 18, 2010
NOOO GUTI
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
Yep that's a fastball down the middle
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Maybe not
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Not down the middle, but on the edge of the zone
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Definite strike
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Was it called a strike earlier?
msb - April 18, 2010
Yes and no.
He’s been really inconsistent.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
Some times
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
BULL SHIT BULL SHIT BULL SHIT
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
MOTHERFUCKER
Alto - April 18, 2010
NOW YOU CALL THAT A STRIKE?!?!?
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
THAT WAS NOT A PRODUCTIVE OUT
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
We wouldn't of got that call.
Bullshit.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Snell got at least a couple of these calls.
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Great.
Nice to see the Tigers get the borderline call.
JLC - April 18, 2010
GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Double06 - April 18, 2010
Hey that would be understandable if you would fucking give us anything on the corner
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
FUCING LOAFIE
cwel87 - April 18, 2010
Boned
mont_mariner - April 18, 2010
Awwww.....
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
And that's why you don't give up outs...
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
YOU BETTER NOT FUCK UP HERE LOPEZ
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
LET'S DO THIS JOSE!!
Hero time
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Well it was a strike
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Fuck's sake.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Watch us not score.
Goose - April 18, 2010
I'm watching
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
THAT WAS A BALL YOU UMPIRE
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
It was down the middle.
Goose - April 18, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK LOPEZ DON'T SWING YOU SHITSTAIN
Double06 - April 18, 2010
I don't like that this game is now in Loafie's hands
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Lopez you're terrible!
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
LAY OFF THE SWINGING YOU DICK
Alto - April 18, 2010
Man. What in the fuck are you swinging at Lopez.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Nice swing lopey
jackyz - April 18, 2010
I probably would've done the same thing.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Can the umpires at least try to be consistent across the board.
kschimke - April 18, 2010
Lopez, for the love of god....
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
That was not promising.
JY - April 18, 2010
Lopez not doing much to help his 50 walk goal.
lailaihei - April 18, 2010
We're doomed
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
So we're fucked.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
YOU SUCK LOPEZ
Premature panic.
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
Swing and a miss here
jtopps - April 18, 2010
Lopez power pitch time.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
WHY THE FUCK DID WE BUNT?! NOOOOOOOOOO
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
Seriously.
It is so fucking dumb.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
2 strikes just like that.
Bye Lopez.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
SOB
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
POPUP
Double06 - April 18, 2010
FUUUUUUUXCK CAKES
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
FUCK YOU LOPEZ
Alto - April 18, 2010
Gayyyyyy
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
6-7!
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
GOD DAMMIT FUCKING FUCK
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
MOTHER FUCKER GOD DAMNIT
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
Double Boned, fuck
mont_mariner - April 18, 2010
Suck a dick Lopez.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
TRADE HIM!!!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010
Shoot!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Well, crap.
msb - April 18, 2010
I wonder how much effect the new position has on Lopez offense.
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Apparently none!
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
He pointed out earlier today it was April
he doesn’t do well at the start of the year.
msb - April 18, 2010
Ok
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Which is odd because he usually plays winter ball towards the end of their season.
JY - April 18, 2010
Fuck baseball
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Goddammit.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
ASS
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Bunt would have been a hell of a lot less retarded without a retard in the 4 hole.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Valverde in the 9th with Griffey - Kotch - Moore.
Oh fucking boy.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Er. Griff-Byrnes-Kotch.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Is there a word
that means the opposite of Funk-Blast?
ErictheRed - April 18, 2010
Contused Testicle
CapSea - April 18, 2010
Out
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Will that make our WE go up?
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Rob Johnson
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Classical-Implosion?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Aww...that's too bad.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
God damn it all.
JLC - April 18, 2010
So in the bottom of the 9th we got Griffey, Byrnes and Kotchman
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Oh thank god.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
I am calling a two run dinger from Casey Kotchman
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
I hope Bradley hits for Byrnes
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Lopey nearly has one of every out.
Just not the lineout.
IlliniM - April 18, 2010
The bunt wasn't smart, but Guti should swung at those strikes
Most of the time you put the ball in play there you’re gonna score a run.
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Should've*
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
At least Oakland lost.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Franklin Gutierrez is slow
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
and talks to himself while running
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
He's not a gamer
like Byrnes.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Cabrera you dick
Alto - April 18, 2010
Fuck this game.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
That is so Raven
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
This is where we implode
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Again?
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Wha?
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Guti's saying, "fuck it."
svart aske - April 18, 2010
Chubbiness doesn not affect Cabrera's hitting.
msb - April 18, 2010
Guti was that you?
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010
Is the back wall of Safeco
going to take a fair share for WE of this game?
ErictheRed - April 18, 2010
Our #34 is better than yours, Baltimore.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
Baltimore?
JY - April 18, 2010
FSN showed a graphic of Felix next to Kevin Millwood previewing next series.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
We really didn't need to use 4 relief pitchers for 4 innings
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Neither Colome orTexiera had pitched in a week
don’t know what the White excuse was.
msb - April 18, 2010
Should have kept Texeira in for two
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
I realized that was where you were going after I typed it
msb - April 18, 2010
Agreed.
I wanted to see Tex for another inning.
refuse2lose2010 - April 18, 2010
Thanks for reminding us that the Ichiro shirt is a disappointment on top of this shit game, Dave
OlSalty - April 18, 2010
Ha, Dave N. commenting on the Ichiro t-shirt.
“Hey, that’s not as weird as I thought it would be. "
wazzu93 - April 18, 2010
Time for the crowd
to beat the traffic.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Kotchman is good at stopping those balls from going by him
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Yep. I love Kotchman. He can stay.
TheBishop - April 18, 2010
Got the force DP
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Brandon Inge has 3 walks
JLC - April 18, 2010
Our offense needs to learn to be less tarded
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
It's been tarded before.
CapSea - April 18, 2010
Now it's tarded again
‘re-tarded’, if you will.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
OH MY DOUBLE PLAY
Alto - April 18, 2010
GIDP!!!
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Oh my God Chone Figgins is the best
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
So Figgins at second base is a failed experiment.
Double06 - April 18, 2010
Man Figgy what a show today
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
I'd be excited about that if I thought it would matter
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
GOD I love our D
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Really don't see how we aren't being beat 17-2, but it is fine by me.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
No, it doesn't sound like some runs.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
But I hope you're right
svart aske - April 18, 2010
DPs are always nice.
Too bad we’re still gonna lose.
TWownsU - April 18, 2010
Say GriffDawg gets on
Pinch run Tui and Bradley pinch hit for Byrnes?
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
That's how I'd do it.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
I don't know what Griffey, Byrnes, Kotchman sounds like other than their names, Sims.
ThundaPC - April 18, 2010
Trouble!!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Sounds like a K, an infield pop, and something.
abender20 - April 18, 2010
HOMERUNNNNNNN
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Gets a hit but gets tagged out between 2nd and 3rd.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
WRONG!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
That's "something".
Fuck off.
abender20 - April 18, 2010
a be cent fork gym shin fry
CapSea - April 18, 2010
Detroit's left 12 men on today.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
Time for a walk-off
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Welp. Valverde time.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
So, what are the odds Griffey can catch up with a Valverde pitch?
msb - April 18, 2010
He caught up to that 100 mph pitch last night. :) FIngers crossed.
wazzu93 - April 18, 2010
He caught up with Zumaya yesterday.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
Seeing how he caught up to a 102 mph pitch last night.....
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
HES THROWING 80+???
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
I'm out be at the ballpark for the entire Oriole series.
MATT FUCKIN WIETERS!
BeerDrinking - April 18, 2010

ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Griffery-Byrnes-Kotchman back to back to back walk off. I'm calling it now.

Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
How is that still his nickname?
Poochie - April 18, 2010
He's still younger than his dad
jtopps - April 18, 2010
Irony is hip
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
We want to remember him for the good years?
wazzu93 - April 18, 2010
Boom
CapSea - April 18, 2010
Why dont they show the umpires on those checkdowns?
Schuxu - April 18, 2010
Ken Griffey Jr. makes me want to guffaw
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
FUCK
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Lame-o
svart aske - April 18, 2010
It's like a homerun, except more groundy!
CapSea - April 18, 2010
Argh
Alto - April 18, 2010
Bah.
Here is to next series.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
At least we won't be the ones to break Orioles' losing streak.
svart aske - April 18, 2010
Hey, he caught up to it...
I Lick Squirrels - April 18, 2010
Let's see some baby-kicking!
ErictheRed - April 18, 2010
BYRNES YOU USELESS FUCK GET ON BASE
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
I think he has several uses
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
He's a clown without the scary face makeup!
Poochie - April 18, 2010
No pinch hit?
jackyz - April 18, 2010
With who?
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Kyle Lohse
abender20 - April 18, 2010
That's how you win rings
abender20 - April 18, 2010
No, you win rings with Preton Wilson hitting second
Poochie - April 18, 2010
I would have pinch ran a pitcher had he reached
Poochie - April 18, 2010
Byrnes this is where you redeem yourself
Alto - April 18, 2010
He already doubled.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
Take it on the shoulder you prick!
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
Time for some Eric Byrnes magic
JLC - April 18, 2010

Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
Cartwheel to homeplate!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Put on your rocket shoes and try to steal but accidentally set them to too high of a setting and fly all over the place!
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
Just take the next 3 pitches.

DONT FUCKING SWING
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
You shut your whore mouth.
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
That's an odd way of saying soul-lifting two-run home run
Alto - April 18, 2010
Almost certainly yes
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Is that your official prediction?
JLC - April 18, 2010
Yes. Because I'm usually wrong.
drblacknwhite - April 18, 2010
BALLS
EequalsMc2 - April 18, 2010
Milton's gonna make himself a hero again
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010

Dewey N - April 18, 2010

Ball 3.
Ender15 - April 18, 2010
Hey that's a funny strike
JLC - April 18, 2010
Not a strike!

Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
BULLSHIT THAT'S NOT A STRIKE!
Allen Wu - April 18, 2010

Dewey N - April 18, 2010
This umpire is an inconsistent piece of shit
Griffin Cooper - April 18, 2010
Well its better to K than to GIDP

The Cubs lost a series to the Astros
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
The Astros won?!
Fuckmikereilly - April 18, 2010
I am endlessly pleased by this.
abender20 - April 18, 2010
I've contemplated buying a blue and white "L" flag and hanging it outside my apartment.
abender20 - April 18, 2010
Yet Silva won a game...
IlliniM - April 18, 2010
Game over. Umps don't want us to win so we can't.

Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
You spell in an interesting way.
JY - April 18, 2010
I was trying to make a reference
to South Park but I guess I failed.
Albert Poo Holes - April 18, 2010
I got it.
Eyeball Kid - April 18, 2010
You succeeded.
I just don’t watch South Park.
JY - April 18, 2010
Agreed
ErictheHawksFan - April 18, 2010
His name means green valve
CapSea - April 18, 2010
I think it actually means Tapdancing Seahorse
Dewey N - April 18, 2010
I thought valverde meant 62k for every inning pictched.
ErictheRed - April 18, 2010
No it doesn't!!
Jeff Sullivan - April 18, 2010
Yes it does because I said so.
