High powered offense is high powered
5 field goals. Or a touchdown, 2 FGs, and a safety.

Brian Floyd - May 14, 2010 via mobile reply
Hobetchee - May 14, 2010 reply
Because good God that was not a swing.
And then the ump can call down to first/third to check it
tootthekazoo - May 14, 2010 reply
And how the fuck is it 15-10 Toronto in the 5th inning?
Ender15 - May 14, 2010 reply
Fister only went 5? Did he struggle with pitch count or something?
3 walks
Good amount of swinging strikes though!
But they were extra fun, since he struck out Longoria and Crawford.
Umpire has had a pretty small zone today, both Fister and Davis were near 100 through 5.
Almost sounds like “Can o’ corn uh”
Good pitch, if nothing else.
I’d love Texeira mic with him.
They love to win!
An inning with no runs? Clearly Texas and Toronto have stopped trying.
jwolf0 - May 14, 2010 reply
I think Jae Seo.
Ichiro will of course get voted in. If the team’s still in last come July, I don’t know if Girardi or whoever’s choice it is (player voting?) would give them two. ’Course, Fister might not still be pitching out of his mind by next month.
Aly Edge - May 14, 2010 reply
Then maybe we could get something really nice for him. Then again our starting rotation for next year is already pretty barren.
But hey, Pineda!!
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010 reply
Not kidding.
So that I can CALL you a liar.
CapSea - May 14, 2010 reply
Then what?
This subthread is awful.
that he was unavailable today. But you shouldn’t be so worried, he is one of our best relieves who had an unfortunate meltdown.
I have not been following his recent usage
One of these times he’ll probably wrench his back.
OlSalty - May 14, 2010 reply
And then…splat! I don’t get it.
Which is a very unique thing for a hitter to like
He already has his pants pulled up to above his belly button and he’s challenging the kids to fight.
I was going to totally agree with this.
FORGET GRIFFEY!
Mike Sweeney, your regular DH.
kentroyals5 - May 14, 2010 reply
LIKE TYPHOID!
Fair-weather fan.
FairWeatherFred - May 14, 2010 reply
Where were you, hmm?
the Blue kind.
a common term for gin in the 1800s was ‘blue ruin’
MRS. EYNSFORD HILL: But it can’t have been right for your father to pour spirits down her throat like that. It might have killed her.
LIZA: Not her. Gin was mother’s milk to her. Besides, he’d poured so much down his own throat that he knew the good of it.
That seems weird as I am fairly sure that blue is an artificial color.
I think

No HFCS.
hadn’t thought about that. Have you tried Hansen’s tonic?
Better for better gins, of course.
Basically asking for people’s favorite mixers isn’t being lazy.

If Sweeney can hit at a somewhat respectable level then it’s time to put Griffey on the 60 day DL.
6 inches?
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010 reply
Looked like it almost took that dude’s face off
But his legs might fall off. He played at least one game there last year.
Neat.

I guess though we knew Sweeney has more life in his bat vs R or L. Alonzo must be working hard on Adam Moore. Go Alonzo!
ignacio - May 14, 2010 reply
My first impression is the team’s already better without Rob…
Mejeh - May 14, 2010 reply
That’s too good.
I couldn’t help myself.
After also blowing a 3-0 series lead.
Bahahaha!
Bicycle Rider - May 14, 2010 reply
Way to choke Boston.
This makes up for one of the losses in Balitmore.
Also, nothing makes up for losing a series to Baltimore.
Fuckmikereilly - May 14, 2010 reply
Yes, I know what it was in Baltimore, but you have to feel good about this.
but by no means am I counting my chickens.
When it all went so very wrong.
But Moore hit it hard.
Homeruns! Just like the other teams hit.
Unless you were talking about Jeff?
My bottle of Judgement Day in the beer fridge agrees!
Not a big stout fan myself.

This fucking team
Seraphim - May 14, 2010 reply
Tee hee.
Please strike him out Shawn
They were tinkering with him in ST, trying to stretch his arm out.
I imagine that start in ST was just in an effort to stretch him out as a long reliever.
So the KK was nice.
WHAT WAS THAT PHONE NUMBER AGAIN?
It’s like South Lake Union Trolley, just unfortunate initials.
But they should!
Then we can all ride a Ballard slut.
JLC - May 14, 2010 reply
Made sense to drop one to third.
Terrible execution. :(
Laid down several perfect ones last year.
It seemed like it, anyways.
abender20 - May 14, 2010 reply
Twice now the pitcher deflecting the ball has resulted in an INF hit.
Let’s do this.
Seems odd.
I was thinking of Twiglets for some reason.
Horrible things.
I guess he decided that people would get tired of a joke if they heard it 5 times. I swear he hasn’t written any new material in like a decade.
Was the fact that they’re all drunks already mentioned?
It’s not that I dislike him, quite the opposite, in fact. I could never buy a DVD of his though.
and they have a couple of ‘too hot for TV’ DVDs out.
20 minutes of anal lube jokes.
I see every episode is available on 4od, I might start watching it again.
chezbergrur - May 14, 2010 reply
I’d say that strikeout captured my attention
Interesting names ahoy!
I would’ve kept that. Sounds regal.
Lord Desmond Figgins.
way inside.
Luisam - May 14, 2010 reply
It may actually catch the plate before it gets to the glove. Tough to say.
Its called a bat Chone, use it.
Franklin likes the ball out over the plate. Just like every other hitter.
But I find this new pitcher’s name ironic
:(
the bottom of the ninth.

One of the classic songs from the boy band generation is what it is.
You are…
YOOOUU AAAARREE

It’s where they break and then they come back with that line.
And this is why they can never be the dominant gender.
It would have to be $2.
Don’t need to prove anything.
Why worry?
And I was right! 4/20 is the last time Aardsma closed it out.
Limerickx - May 14, 2010 reply
We’re back to normal!
out coming up.
Two down!
It’s like telling Byrnes to stop hitting pop flies

Yep, that’s where the dingers came from, Mike.
BECAUSE APPARENTLY YOU FUCKERS WEREN’T LOVING GRIFFEY ENOUGH BEFORE
SHUT THE FUCK UP.
“It comes from our love for Ken Griffey Jr.”
Thats so awesome.
RIGHT. NOW.
Mike Sweeney bringing the CRAZY in the post-game interview.
The homeruns came from Griffey
w00tah - May 14, 2010 reply
I. I don’t know what to say.
All the good he did in this game has been quickly forgotten.
But now fuck that guy.
This is no act…
Mike Sweeney chokes back tears as he declares that the team gets its power from Griffey. As if I needed another reason to despise that idiot.
Captain Lurker - May 14, 2010 reply
What a ridiculous interview.
I read that post from Baker that said that Z talked to him. Soooo…
GOD
in Cats Vs. Dogs 2
Another 3 game hit for Ichiro
does that make Griffey lent over?
P-P-P-P-Power!!!!!!!!!
but he hit a HR and if he plays instead of Griffey he can be as crazy as he wants

5 field goals. Or a touchdown, 2 FGs, and a safety.

3-run shot, not a GS
According to gameday
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
I thought I saw 4 RBIs with 1 hit so I assumed.
But you are probably correct.

Home plate umpires don't ask for appeals.
That’s the catcher’s job.
Decatur - May 14, 2010
Beltre :(
Brian Floyd - May 14, 2010 via mobile
haha nice throwback
Hobetchee - May 14, 2010
In that case, our hitters need to take a page out of Adrian's playbook.
Because good God that was not a swing.
harkening - May 14, 2010
I thought the catcher can ask, but it's up to the home plate umpire to make the appeal?
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
Perhaps. I'm not entirely sure now.
Decatur - May 14, 2010
I think that the catcher has to ask for the appeal
And then the ump can call down to first/third to check it
tootthekazoo - May 14, 2010
Yes
joof - May 14, 2010
Yeah, I'm not sure I agreed with that call.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
Sad pants.
joof - May 14, 2010
Well I just got home. Good to see we are winning.
And how the fuck is it 15-10 Toronto in the 5th inning?
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Rich Harden!
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
Awesome.
Fister only went 5? Did he struggle with pitch count or something?
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Shitty strike zone, I think he left with 95 pitches or so
3 walks
Good amount of swinging strikes though!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Didn't he only have five?
But they were extra fun, since he struck out Longoria and Crawford.

can-uh-koe-uh
Almost sounds like “Can o’ corn uh”
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
I'd listen to him sing.
Good pitch, if nothing else.
Jeremariner - May 14, 2010
A duet would be nice
I’d love Texeira mic with him.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
I bet Texas wins
They love to win!
OceanBird - May 14, 2010
Still 15-10 through 5.
An inning with no runs? Clearly Texas and Toronto have stopped trying.
jwolf0 - May 14, 2010
I'd be perfectly happy if there was no more scoring for the rest of the game.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Everytime I hear Jaso
I think Jae Seo.
msb - May 14, 2010
Remember when a groundball up the middle was an automatic hit with a Yuni/Lopez middle infield?
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Someone's angry
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
Suppose Fister has a shot to be an All-Star?
Ichiro will of course get voted in. If the team’s still in last come July, I don’t know if Girardi or whoever’s choice it is (player voting?) would give them two. ’Course, Fister might not still be pitching out of his mind by next month.
Aly Edge - May 14, 2010
I would rather Guti make it than Fister
Cantu Easley Winn - May 14, 2010
Long way to go before that happens.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Fister being named an allstar, I wish.
Then maybe we could get something really nice for him. Then again our starting rotation for next year is already pretty barren.
russak - May 14, 2010
Yeah we need to hold on to all the pitching that we can.
But hey, Pineda!!
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
This would assume that people outside seattle know who Fister is.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
With the almost no hitter his second start(?), he got some exposure.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
Yesbut no one is going to remember that
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Unless they voted at that game which apparently you can do now!
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Managers vote for pitchers
tootthekazoo - May 14, 2010
But still, nobody is going to remember that
tootthekazoo - May 14, 2010
Isn't it the manager that chooses the pitchers on the all-star team?
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Maybe?
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Wow, that outside corner's been generous.
jwolf0 - May 14, 2010
I wish we'd gotten to see the spring training Haka.
msb - May 14, 2010
Great two inning stint for Kanekoa!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Nice to see the long man actually being used in his role.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Feels unusual lately
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
Now we hope for Shawn Kelley in the 8th.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
If it is League I will SHIT my pants.
Not kidding.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
In that case I hope it's League
So that I can CALL you a liar.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
And what if I really did shit myself?
Then what?
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
You'd be sitting in your own shit?

Don't act like you never have.

seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Unfortunately as do I.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Aaahahahahahaha
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
Then you should probably put on a new pair of pants.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Hahahaha you shit yourself.
Slurvey - May 14, 2010
Pictures or it didn't happen.
stredarts - May 14, 2010
No thanks.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
I kinda hope that League does come out to pitch now
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
They mentioned on the radio
that he was unavailable today. But you shouldn’t be so worried, he is one of our best relieves who had an unfortunate meltdown.
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
I agree he is a good reliever, but Wak had already used him 5 times in 6 days.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Ah
I have not been following his recent usage
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
I love Kanekoa.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Kanekoa coming in and pitching solid is great to see.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
I want Sweeney to always swing like that.
One of these times he’ll probably wrench his back.
harkening - May 14, 2010
Happened last year!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Whoa Rich Harden completely blew up
OlSalty - May 14, 2010
Seems like he's still broken.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
What a shame.
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
All these great guys come out of Oakland
And then…splat! I don’t get it.
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
Fine by me!
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
"Mike not happy with himself, he really like the fastball out over the plate"
Which is a very unique thing for a hitter to like
tootthekazoo - May 14, 2010
Sweeney is clearly ready to retire.
He already has his pants pulled up to above his belly button and he’s challenging the kids to fight.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
What the hell? Where did that come from Sweeney?
I was going to totally agree with this.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
Maybe you should shit your pants now
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
Well... How about that.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Exactly. Don't believe it, and I just saw it
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
My hat tastes salty.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
wut
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
Uh.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA SWEENDAWG
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
What
Coach Owens - May 14, 2010
What in the fuck is with this game?
CapSea - May 14, 2010
SWEENDOG!
FORGET GRIFFEY!
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Fucking really?
tootthekazoo - May 14, 2010
God dammit.
Mike Sweeney, your regular DH.
harkening - May 14, 2010
THE FUCK THE FUCK THE FUCK!
Slurvey - May 14, 2010
WHAT THE FUCK MARINERS!!!!
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
UHHHH
kentroyals5 - May 14, 2010
wat?
stredarts - May 14, 2010
Huh. How about that.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
SWEENEY BOMBER!
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
I am so confused.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
SWEEN FEVER!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Catch it!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
AND THEN DIE!
LIKE TYPHOID!
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
Oh now you show up
Fair-weather fan.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Fair-weather fans have to work.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
It's true
FairWeatherFred - May 14, 2010
I do not believe you.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I was also participating in the gamethread early in this game.
Where were you, hmm?
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Sipping gin.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Oooh what kind?
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
And can I have some, too?
msb - May 14, 2010
The kind in the blue bottle that is on my counter.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Oh.
the Blue kind.
msb - May 14, 2010
Useless fact.
a common term for gin in the 1800s was ‘blue ruin’
msb - May 14, 2010
Sounds about right.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Well, gin was awesome at destroying Britain's social fabric.
Decatur - May 14, 2010
.
MRS. EYNSFORD HILL: But it can’t have been right for your father to pour spirits down her throat like that. It might have killed her.
LIZA: Not her. Gin was mother’s milk to her. Besides, he’d poured so much down his own throat that he knew the good of it.
msb - May 14, 2010
Was it blue then?
That seems weird as I am fairly sure that blue is an artificial color.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I think the cheap stuff got a blue tint when ammonia was introduced into the copper distilling...
I think
msb - May 14, 2010
Icky.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I believe most of life was icky in the 1700s.
msb - May 14, 2010
Bombay Sapphire! WHEEEE
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Yes the jewels!
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Bombay Sapphire is pretty fresh.
Kirk - May 14, 2010 via mobile
Hey what mixes well with that
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
Ice
FairWeatherFred - May 14, 2010
what doesn't?
msb - May 14, 2010
Coke!
rickpo - May 14, 2010
I could sure use some coke right now.
Decatur - May 14, 2010
Me too. Shit, have you been following our game against Toronto?
JoshHamilton - May 14, 2010
Juice?
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Or hey I could google some mixes.
This is a recent bad habit
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
God I know.
Google is so hard to quit.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
I forget it's there
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
It's so damn far away.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I actually just use soda.
No HFCS.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Tonic, soda, either with lime or Rose's lime
msb - May 14, 2010
Tonic has HFCS though.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Huh.
hadn’t thought about that. Have you tried Hansen’s tonic?
msb - May 14, 2010
No, but I discovered that soda works fine.
Better for better gins, of course.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I don't think this was that terrible.
Basically asking for people’s favorite mixers isn’t being lazy.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
An acceptable answer.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Eyebrows was laid back with his mind on his money and his money on his mind.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
That's where I was goin!
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Over the fence means runs!
kentroyals5 - May 14, 2010
Run(s)
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Adam Moore and Mike Sweeney homered in the same game.
Cablinasian - May 14, 2010
One of these players is not like the other.
harkening - May 14, 2010
They both look white and unathletic to me.
russak - May 14, 2010
Both of these players are not like the others
They are both below average right now.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
Both on the catching depth chart.
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
WHAT
OlSalty - May 14, 2010
KEEP MIKE SWEENEY!
kentroyals5 - May 14, 2010
SWEENEY!
beastwarking - May 14, 2010
I know we all hate the Sweendawg
But he’s soooooo much better than Junior.
OceanBird - May 14, 2010
Tallest midget
tootthekazoo - May 14, 2010
What..... Sweeney
wadswerth - May 14, 2010
What the fuck
Stormton - May 14, 2010
Hugs for everyone!
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010
Sweendog is just too good.
magistermilitum - May 14, 2010
I still fucking hate him
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
dislike*, hate is a strong word
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
And there's your new DH folks.
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
Seriously though
If Sweeney can hit at a somewhat respectable level then it’s time to put Griffey on the 60 day DL.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
No Blowers. That was not a fastball.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Retire Griffey!
svart aske - May 14, 2010
We're going bananas with the dingers lately
BRKLN M'S - May 14, 2010
AND NOW HE'S NEVER GOING AWAY FUCK
OlSalty - May 14, 2010
GRIFFEY YOU MUST RETIRE NOW
OlSalty - May 14, 2010
Shocked.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Uhhh...
Decatur - May 14, 2010
How much did that clear the fence by?
6 inches?
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
Enough for CC not to try for it!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Enough for the fan seated there to not try for it
Looked like it almost took that dude’s face off
tootthekazoo - May 14, 2010
I wonder if Sweeney can play the infield.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
He should be servicable at 1B in an emergency
But his legs might fall off. He played at least one game there last year.
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
Maybe he could sub for Figgins
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Home runs!
Neat.
ty540 - May 14, 2010
Spring Training!
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
That was no bomb but it's much farther than Jr. appears able to do.
Big Jared - May 14, 2010
He was way out in front too.. That was a solid piece of hitting.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Even worked the count and everyting.
FairWeatherFred - May 14, 2010
Loafie!
It’s the first inning all over again!
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
How peculiar
Nick S - May 14, 2010
Every run scored today is the result of a home run.
stredarts - May 14, 2010
This Game:
CapSea - May 14, 2010
I don't understand this and I don't think I want to.
That being said, I laughed.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
It's Timmy, the albino lifeguard.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
He has a nice utility bike.
stredarts - May 14, 2010
That didn't add to my lack of knowledge, but it did create more laughs!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Sweeney stole Byrnes bike.
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010
Was this supposed to be a .gif?
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
None of you watch enough television.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHgo4tPIjvk
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Ahahahaha.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
I was thinking this was a reference to "Powder"
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
OK, I just got here. Black is down, up is white?
I guess though we knew Sweeney has more life in his bat vs R or L. Alonzo must be working hard on Adam Moore. Go Alonzo!
ignacio - May 14, 2010
Racist.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Kotchman got walked intentionally, so I say yes.
msb - May 14, 2010
We've scored 24 runs this week.
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
6 HRs in two games!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
1/3 Sweeney Power!
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
Just tuned into the game
My first impression is the team’s already better without Rob…
Mejeh - May 14, 2010
Does today help signify the end of Rob Johnson?
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
I have a feeling it's going to be awhile on that
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
Nah. He's still Felix's personal ball dropper.
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Hey, it's Joaquin Beniot!
Coach Owens - May 14, 2010
*Benoit.
Coach Owens - May 14, 2010
Ben-wah!!!
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Shawn Kelley up! Woo!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Bahahaha Kotchman
BrianL - May 14, 2010
That was an incredible reaction on his part.
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
.
msb - May 14, 2010
Ha ha ha ha
That’s too good.
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
I had to make it my picture.
I couldn’t help myself.
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
A little annoyed, are we Kotchman?
OceanBird - May 14, 2010
Give Langerhans his position!
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Flyball! Improvement!
Decatur - May 14, 2010
Meanwhile the Boston Bruins blow a 3-0 lead in Game 7 today and lose 4-3.
After also blowing a 3-0 series lead.
drblacknwhite - May 14, 2010
WUT!!?! They lost??
Bahahaha!
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Thats pretty awesome.
Bicycle Rider - May 14, 2010
I would love this a lot more if it weren't for Chris Pronger.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Damn when I left the bar it was still 3-1.
Way to choke Boston.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
In my head
This makes up for one of the losses in Balitmore.
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
Not over.
kentroyals5 - May 14, 2010
The last one was unforgivable.
russak - May 14, 2010
Assuming we actually win this.
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
Don't assume we've won.
Also, nothing makes up for losing a series to Baltimore.
Fuckmikereilly - May 14, 2010
Like that game where we had a comfortable lead in the eighth inning?
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
92% WE
Yes, I know what it was in Baltimore, but you have to feel good about this.
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
Oh I do
but by no means am I counting my chickens.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Or prepare yourself for the inevitable explosion.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
SEE?
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
I should have shut the fuck up
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
THANKS A LOT
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
This is the inning.
When it all went so very wrong.
stredarts - May 14, 2010
Fuck.
But Moore hit it hard.
ignacio - May 14, 2010
At least he hit it hard.
russak - May 14, 2010
Power surge! I'm breaking out the Arrogant Bastard.
Homeruns! Just like the other teams hit.
Big Jared - May 14, 2010
That picture is Speedway Stout.
Unless you were talking about Jeff?
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
You've come so far, grasshopper
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Smiles!
My bottle of Judgement Day in the beer fridge agrees!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
I just felt like giving this one a reset.
Not a big stout fan myself.
Big Jared - May 14, 2010
I think that's just Dallas Braden.
theanswerm - May 14, 2010
Yay!
Appropriate bullpen usage!
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
Lot of good contact for Moore today.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Seriously! Like I said earlier, he looks completely not lost today!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Maybe now he can play a couple days in a row.
ignacio - May 14, 2010
Texiera with his first career Shutdown!
lailaihei - May 14, 2010
Sweeney's playing like he realized he's already in Florida.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Got to impress his new home crowd, amirite?
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
Ah shit.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Ok? Kotchman?
Just kind’ve fell on the ball.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
He had to range for that.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Not an easy play.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Cmon quick ground ball!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Whoops.
drblacknwhite - May 14, 2010
Oh lawd
FairWeatherFred - May 14, 2010
AWW DONGCHUGGERS
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Well... This looks familiar.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Fuck.
That is all.
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
The nightmare begins.
svart aske - May 14, 2010
Yeah fucking right
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
Damn
MT Olson - May 14, 2010
Well thank goodness Sweeney got that extra run for us, right guys?
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Predictable
CKel - May 14, 2010
It appears that Evan Longoria's first name has become "The Dangerous"
Nick S - May 14, 2010
Mariners bullpen!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Dildos :-(
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
Annndddd here we go
BRKLN M'S - May 14, 2010
Whuh-oh.
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
Evan Longoria is pretty good at baseball.
James F'n X - May 14, 2010
This'll make Aardsma fun should it come to that.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
There he is!
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Yeah, you always want him to have a cushion.
ignacio - May 14, 2010
That's just super.
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
Yeah don't throw that pitch there
OlSalty - May 14, 2010
Aaaaaaaand that is probably why
Assballs
Nick S - May 14, 2010
WHY CANT WE JUST COAST TO A FUCKING VICTORY?
russak - May 14, 2010
Man do I enjoy 8th innings.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Well.......Jesus.
What the fuck are they gonna do to us today?
ignacio - May 14, 2010
Z should wheel Griffdawg to his home.
Robert - May 14, 2010 via mobile
Clearly, our best releivers are taking turns blowing leads.
ForwardMomentum - May 14, 2010
Warming up DA quickly... Interesting - When was the last time Aardsma was brought in for a more than 3 out save?
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
June 25th, 2009
tintin - May 14, 2010
Like the efficiency!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
I made it up :D
tintin - May 14, 2010
Efficiency over accuracy!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Yeah, was about to call you on it
http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/SEA/SEA200906250.shtml
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
I don't remember it ever happening
JJ did it quite frequently though.
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
I miss JJ's 4 out saves
CKel - May 14, 2010
Onto the cockwagon.
James F'n X - May 14, 2010
Shotgun!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
At least there's no chance Pena will hit one out.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
There are about 4 of those Longoria comments that were amusing and added to this thread.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
That actually seems like a relatively high number
Nick S - May 14, 2010
I laughed at yours.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
We're not all writers.
Let the people have their GTE.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
The one guy is.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Just have to say
This fucking team
Seraphim - May 14, 2010
This must be what Matthew was talking about when he said "Wait for it..."
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
From the future!!!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
The DA will cross examine them tears and (hopefully) warning track flyouts.
Big Jared - May 14, 2010
JUST HOLD ON, MARINERS!
Jeremariner - May 14, 2010
You can see his butt.
Tee hee.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Wow dang
Allen Wu - May 14, 2010
Been there
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
Man our Dinger Pythag is just terrible
Robert - May 14, 2010 via mobile
SIT DOWN, PENA
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
HUGE out... Cmon - one more!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
K!
ignacio - May 14, 2010
BJ Upton comes out to Soulja Boy
Please strike him out Shawn
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
You Tell'Em!

Hop up out tha bedddddd....
BRKLN M'S - May 14, 2010
Ahhhh I see what ya did there....
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Genius
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
Bendy things
ignacio - May 14, 2010
Any word on Keley being a possibe starter next year?
They were tinkering with him in ST, trying to stretch his arm out.
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010
*Kelley
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010
We already have enough back-end starters next year, I think.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
I don't think so.
I imagine that start in ST was just in an effort to stretch him out as a long reliever.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
SHAWN KELLEY YOU SEXY BASTARD
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
I kinda thought the HR was a given.
So the KK was nice.
stredarts - May 14, 2010
Kelley time!
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
KK!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
You know that wasn't too bad of an inning for him.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Aside from the Longoria bomb, the pen has done a phenomenal job today.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
GOD I FUCKING HATE THIS RADIO AD
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
THIS IS THE WORST AD I'VE EVER HEARD ON ANY RADIO STATION EVER
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Which one is it?
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
I'M NOT GOING TO GO CRAZY AND MURDER EVERYONE WHO WORKS FOR ARROWHEAD GARDENS
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
NOPE
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
NOT VERY LIKELY
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
888 450 SHAG!!!!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
GOD I HATE THAT COMMERCIAL
BrianL - May 14, 2010
WHY DOES THE PHONE NUMBER FOR AN OLD FOLKS' HOME HAVE THE WORD SHAG IN IT?!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
THIS IS NOT A MENTAL IMAGE I WANT TO ASSOCIATE WITH PRUNEY OLD DUDES
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
HEY HONEY
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
YES DEAR?!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
WHERE SHOULD WE SEND DAD TO FESTER AWAY AND DIE?!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
HOW ABOUT THE HOME FOR OLD PEOPLE WHO LIKE TO FUCK A LOT??
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
SWELL IDEA, DEAR!
WHAT WAS THAT PHONE NUMBER AGAIN?
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010

Senior Housing Assistance Group
It’s like South Lake Union Trolley, just unfortunate initials.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
Did they ever change it back to the slut?
stredarts - May 14, 2010
No
But they should!
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
Especially when they extend it to Ballard.
Then we can all ride a Ballard slut.
stredarts - May 14, 2010
Perhaps they are trying to attract people who really enjoy shag carpeting
Nick S - May 14, 2010
88854SHAG!
stredarts - May 14, 2010
Which one?
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Woooo.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Boy the Seattle Mariners almost Boston Bruins'd that inning.
JLC - May 14, 2010
Bacon cheeseburger ad makes me want a bacon cheeseburger
ignacio - May 14, 2010
Rut Roh Saunders v a Lefty
Slurvey - May 14, 2010
DAMMIT
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
FANTASTIC.
James F'n X - May 14, 2010
Well right idea, not so great execution.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Well.. he tried to beat the shift.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
STOP BUNTING YOU FUCKERS
kentroyals5 - May 14, 2010
They've been using a extreme shift on him all game.
Made sense to drop one to third.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
That was awful
JLC - May 14, 2010
Good idea......
ignacio - May 14, 2010
Good idea
Terrible execution.
:(
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Usually he's good for that
Laid down several perfect ones last year.
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
Yeah I think they accounted for half of his hits last year.
It seemed like it, anyways.
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Michael Saunders seems to forget that he can actually hit now.
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
Oof not so good Condor.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Ichiro again!
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Ichiro is hilarious and I would like to see him steal second.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
I'd be okay with that I guess.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
That works as well.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
No need!
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
or that
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Ichiro is hot
ignacio - May 14, 2010
Ichi-love!
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Ichiro is really taking aim at the pitchers today.
Twice now the pitcher deflecting the ball has resulted in an INF hit.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
If my last name was Choate, I'd change it.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
So Ichiro is the absolute king of the bitch hits
Nick S - May 14, 2010
How about another one of those Choate?
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
How about two more?
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
The first two balls to Ichiro were of the same ilk.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Bring in that doily!
tintin - May 14, 2010
Two more wild pitches and we've got a run.
Let’s do this.
ForwardMomentum - May 14, 2010
Hit a single Chone.
ignacio - May 14, 2010
5 bucks says Figgins does something boring.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
I want to nickname him "Figglet."
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Too bad Tigger is already off the team.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
I love it but I don't understand it.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
I'm going with Winnie the Pooh's best friend Piglet as the inspiration.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
There's no Winnie the Pooh in England?
Seems odd.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I was never much of a fan.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
He's weak, he's tiny, he's not funy.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
*funny.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Ah, I see
I was thinking of Twiglets for some reason.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
We don't really have those here.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Lucky you
Horrible things.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
However, if you watch the UK Whose Line Is It Anyway? you know all about them.
msb - May 14, 2010
Mock The Week helps with references as well.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Mock the Week airs in the US?
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Youtube!
abender20 - May 14, 2010
Thank the sweet lord for Frankie Boyle.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
He wasn't in the latest series
I guess he decided that people would get tired of a joke if they heard it 5 times. I swear he hasn’t written any new material in like a decade.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Did you know that Scottish people are drunks and say "cunt" a lot?
abender20 - May 14, 2010
You forgot that they are fat.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
His censored jokes are the most amazing things ever.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
As I understand it, they also wear skirts.
msb - May 14, 2010
And they're all ugly!
Was the fact that they’re all drunks already mentioned?
Nick S - May 14, 2010
I di know that!
It’s not that I dislike him, quite the opposite, in fact. I could never buy a DVD of his though.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
He over-offended someone and decided to leave before he was censored.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Really? That seems odd considering they cut jokes all the time
and they have a couple of ‘too hot for TV’ DVDs out.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Those are the best part.
20 minutes of anal lube jokes.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
On the internet.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Mock the Week is amazing and I wish there was some way to watch it that wasn't Youtube
Nick S - May 14, 2010
Me too as they cut them off in the middle of a sentence.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Torrents?
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Was that show originally English or American?
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Started in the UK.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
Thought so
I see every episode is available on 4od, I might start watching it again.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Pigglet from Winnie The Pooh.
chezbergrur - May 14, 2010
I'm on board with this
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
Me too, but it reminds me of an off-color joke.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
So you're prefer his nickname be more black?
CapSea - May 14, 2010
This is as close as can be considered comfortable.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
I'm not familiar with this off-color joke
Kermit. - May 14, 2010
Do tell
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
The NAACP wouldn't care for it.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
How about the NAAWP?
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
And I'm nothing if not sensitive.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
Make the joke jewey.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I'll tell you in the car on the way to Sourfest.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
I approve of this plan.
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
What qualifies as boring?
JLC - May 14, 2010
That does.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
That was irritating
I’d say that strikeout captured my attention
JLC - May 14, 2010
I'd say that was pretty boring.
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Chone vs. Choate
Interesting names ahoy!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
His real name is Desmond!
I would’ve kept that. Sounds regal.
Lord Desmond Figgins.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
NOT A STRIKE
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Is Wade Davis gonna to have to Choate a bitch?
CapSea - May 14, 2010
SWING THE BAT CHONE!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
FUCKING HELL
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
That ball was
way inside.
Luisam - May 14, 2010
With that horizontal break...
It may actually catch the plate before it gets to the glove. Tough to say.
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
In other words... SWING!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
That wasn't a "productive" out.
ignacio - May 14, 2010
That wasn't a strike either
Allen Wu - May 14, 2010
He would have walked if he threw balls.
Its called a bat Chone, use it.
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010
I would really like one of those fabled "Easy Outings" for Aardsma.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Yes, Mike.
Franklin likes the ball out over the plate. Just like every other hitter.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
It know it must have been said a million times already...
But I find this new pitcher’s name ironic
FairWeatherFred - May 14, 2010
It's especially ironic now....
:(
Jeremariner - May 14, 2010
All I wan't is to not be swept by the Rays.
stredarts - May 14, 2010
I can't watch
the bottom of the ninth.
Luisam - May 14, 2010
HAVE A MORE CONSISTENT STRIKE ZONE DICKFACE
Mariner John - May 14, 2010
Shit.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
No way
kentroyals5 - May 14, 2010
Nice pitch there for the K
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
So half the game there is no strike zone and then the second half it's 4 inches on either side!?
COME THE FUCK ON!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
So frustrating.
Protect the PLATE!
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
What the fuck was that?!
Robots anyone?
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
BALL
Coach Owens - May 14, 2010
Two hitters in a row!
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Aortic rupture time.
svart aske - May 14, 2010
Man I hope Aardsma gets that pitch
JLC - May 14, 2010
Let's hope Aardsma gets that strike.
rickpo - May 14, 2010
Late.
rickpo - May 14, 2010
Please David. Please!
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
With Aardsma coming in I am fully prepared to lose this game.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
WIll we win?
BRKLN M'S - May 14, 2010
YES!
Maybe?
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
We just don't know
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Its so hard to say!
BRKLN M'S - May 14, 2010
Outlook hazy; try again later.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Aardsma in!
Extras imminent!
tintin - May 14, 2010
Losing this game would suck since one of those runs we gave up came on a balk.
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
Looks like I haven't missed much!
melenious - May 14, 2010
DINGERS!
Big Jared - May 14, 2010
Not much EXCEPT FOR CLIFF LEE GETTING A PINCH HIT SINGLE
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Oh shush you.
melenious - May 14, 2010
OH MAN THAT WAS SO AWESOME
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
You boys are so, so cruel.
melenious - May 14, 2010
Abender's is even better!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
I liked the part where he sang at the 7th inning stretch and just stared into the camera with his blue eyes.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
ENOUGH.
melenious - May 14, 2010
You areeeeeeeee
My fireeeeeeeee.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
MY ONE
DEEESIIIIRE
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
You two are freaking me out.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
BELIEVE WHEN I SAY
THAT I WANT IT THAT WAY.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
BUT WE ARE TWO WORLDS APART
CapSea - May 14, 2010
CAN'T REACH THROUGH YOUR HEART.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
WHEN YOU SAY.
THAT I WANT IT THAT WAY
CapSea - May 14, 2010
TELL ME WHY
CapSea - May 14, 2010
AIN'T NOTHING BUT A HEARTACHE
CapSea - May 14, 2010
AIN'T NOTHING BUT A MISTAKE, TELL ME WHY
CapSea - May 14, 2010
I NEVER WANT TO HEAR YOU SAY...
CapSea - May 14, 2010
I think I am glad I don;t know what this is.
msb - May 14, 2010
I envy you.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Backstreet's back, alright!
One of the classic songs from the boy band generation is what it is.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
We'll see how good Eyebrows is.
You are…
abender20 - May 14, 2010
YOU ARE
YOOOUU AAAARREE
DON’T WANNA HEAR YOU…
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
AINT NOTTHINNNNGGG BUT A HEART BREAK
abender20 - May 14, 2010
Whoops. Whatever. I've weirded myself out anyway.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
No that's right.
It’s where they break and then they come back with that line.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I think it's heart ache. I know the sequence but boffed the words.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
That was my thought as well.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
You could just look up in this thread and find out the answer.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Way to play into my hands, boys.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Rawr.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Denying that I know this song very very well would just be lying to myself.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
I own this album
Mariner John - May 14, 2010
Me too.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
I'm on Team Backstreet
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Was there ever any doubt?
abender20 - May 14, 2010
Girls like N'Sync
And this is why they can never be the dominant gender.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
I wish I ddi
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
I'll sell it to you.
Mariner John - May 14, 2010
For one dollar?
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
This is a valuable artifact.
It would have to be $2.
Mariner John - May 14, 2010
I will consider it.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
AIN'T NOTHING BUT A MISTAKE
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Dude I sang this at my prom.
Don’t need to prove anything.
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
You must have really enjoyed the reach around in your vest.
abender20 - May 14, 2010
AND HOW!
Eyebrows - May 14, 2010
Best karaoke song ever.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
*kanaoke
Decatur - May 14, 2010
ROOOOOOOOOAR!!
melenious - May 14, 2010
*vomits*
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
So if Fister had let the ball fall out of his hand when his foot slipped, it wouldn't have been a balk?
msb - May 14, 2010
That's probably true.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
Dropping the ball would also be a balk, he would have had to make an actual throw to the plate.
drblacknwhite - May 14, 2010
Yep
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
When was the last time David Aardsma managed to close out the 9th?
BrianL - May 14, 2010
June 25th, 2009
Hobetchee - May 14, 2010
He hasn't blown a save in a state bordering the Atlantic all year.
Why worry?
Big Jared - May 14, 2010
Orioles?
JLC - May 14, 2010
He never pitched.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Meant the 1st time we faced the Orioles
And I was right! 4/20 is the last time Aardsma closed it out.
JLC - May 14, 2010
Alright everyone hold onto your butts
Nick S - May 14, 2010
God, I'm loving this stikezone map at Brooks.
Limerickx - May 14, 2010
This is going to be hard to watch.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Hey look, a deep fly ball
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Deep Flyout
We’re back to normal!
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
Heyyyy he is getting that call too!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Good, I guess it was a good idea to listen to the 9th with my rosary
FairWeatherFred - May 14, 2010
At least DA's getting them calls too
Allen Wu - May 14, 2010
Bahaha look at this strike zone!
Decatur - May 14, 2010
HAHAHAHAHA
BRKLN M'S - May 14, 2010
K!
Coach Owens - May 14, 2010
Oh for the love of God just get one more.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Hold your breath!
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
Really Blowers? Quality closers can locate their pitches? Never woulda guessed.
tintin - May 14, 2010
Ahhhhhhhh hardest
out coming up.
Luisam - May 14, 2010
No problem.
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
What the hell is a breaking ball/splitter doing all the way up there.
Slurvey - May 14, 2010
One more!
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Got-eem!
Two down!
Jeremariner - May 14, 2010
I HAVE HAD IT WITH THESE MOTHER FUCKING RAYS IN THIS MOTHER FUCKING GAME.
CapSea - May 14, 2010
Please stop throwing fastballs down the middle, Aardsma.
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
I'm with you
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
That's what he does...
It’s like telling Byrnes to stop hitting pop flies
Allen Wu - May 14, 2010
I mean...
Keep getting lucky Aardsma! Yeah, because that will work out well.
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
IS THIS GOOD AARDSMA, FINALLY?!?
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
Even good Aardsma can still be scary Aardsma
FairWeatherFred - May 14, 2010
Don't
jinx it.
Luisam - May 14, 2010
no
CapSea - May 14, 2010
BENDY THING!
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
Scared to death of a walk right now.
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Did they finally give Dave a pitch fx monitor?
stredarts - May 14, 2010
Strike him out!!!
svart aske - May 14, 2010
Please DO NOT walk him.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
VICTORY!!!
drblacknwhite - May 14, 2010

ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
Jesus fuck get this guy, DA
Decatur - May 14, 2010

MARINERS WIN!
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010

ONE GAME PLAYOFF
BRKLN M'S - May 14, 2010
HOLY FUCK
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
Why the hell does Mike Sweeney have dirt all over his jersey?
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
GRIT!
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Stole third base.
Wilder. - May 14, 2010
No way.
appleshampoo - May 14, 2010
That's not dirt
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
HE'S FRISKYYYYYYY
melenious - May 14, 2010
In a good way ;)
melenious - May 14, 2010
He stole third in the first inning with a head first slide.
chezbergrur - May 14, 2010
You can't be serious
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
It was right after he almost got picked off twice.
chezbergrur - May 14, 2010
Slid into home after his dinger.
Fuckmikereilly - May 14, 2010
SLID INTO THIRD
Coach Owens - May 14, 2010
He stole 3rd in the 1st inning!
drblacknwhite - May 14, 2010
He bleeds it
Nick S - May 14, 2010
This one is the correct answer.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
He made an excellent play at first in the second inning
Web Gem of the Year
Mariner John - May 14, 2010
Time to watch Texas
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
16-10 how ridiculous.
Wonder what its like.
Ender15 - May 14, 2010
So does winning tonight make up for losing yesterday?
chezbergrur - May 14, 2010
No it really does not.
the other side - May 14, 2010
SIT THE FUCK DOWN
oscartehgrouch - May 14, 2010
yay! we won against a good team finally!
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010
Time to sweep.
ThundaPC - May 14, 2010
And now we've already won one more game in this series than I thought we would.
Kouvre - May 14, 2010
Yes!
level - May 14, 2010
The Rays had a lot of silly swings today.
BrianL - May 14, 2010
WINS DAMMIT!!!
Big Jared - May 14, 2010
Texas loss and
only 5.5 out!!!
Luisam - May 14, 2010
GOD SHUT THE FUCK SWEENEY
BrianL - May 14, 2010
GRIFFEY IS NOT THE REASON YOU WON TODAY
GRIFFEY NOT PLAYING IS A LARGE FACTOR IN YOU WINNING
BrianL - May 14, 2010
YOU ARE A PETULANT LITTLE SIX YEAR OLD IN AN OLD MAN'S BODY
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Isn;t that most athletes?
msb - May 14, 2010
It's all about the love for Griffey.
Yep, that’s where the dingers came from, Mike.
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
WELL GEE IF THATS TRUE YOU SHOULD SEND A FRUIT BASKET TO LARRY LARUE
BECAUSE APPARENTLY YOU FUCKERS WEREN’T LOVING GRIFFEY ENOUGH BEFORE
BrianL - May 14, 2010
MY GOD YOU ARE SUCH AN ANNOYING FUCK
BrianL - May 14, 2010
But...but his dinger, Brian? How can you not love him now?
seattle_since_81 - May 14, 2010
EVERY TIME HE OPENS HIS GODDAMN PIEHOLE HE SAYS SOMETHING MORONIC
BrianL - May 14, 2010
Sweeney...
SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Jeremariner - May 14, 2010
He loves Junior!
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010

Hobetchee - May 14, 2010
We're going to have to put Griffey on the DL.

I.
I don’t know what to say.
Kirsten Schlewitz - May 14, 2010
Sweeney just credited Griffey for the recent burst of power.
Slurvey - May 14, 2010
Wow. Seriously Mike?
seattlesundevil - May 14, 2010
Sweendawg sticking up for Griffdawg again
All the good he did in this game has been quickly forgotten.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
The font on this needs to be biggered by 10x.
w00tah - May 14, 2010
Agreed.
wyte_lightning - May 14, 2010
For a split second I thought I liked Sweeney.
But now fuck that guy.
ScottBrowne - May 14, 2010
Sweeney goes to a church about a mile from where I live
This is no act…
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
Does he want to fight the people using the confessional?
w00tah - May 14, 2010
What the fuck.
Mike Sweeney chokes back tears as he declares that the team gets its power from Griffey. As if I needed another reason to despise that idiot.
Captain Lurker - May 14, 2010
IF YOU DFA GRIFFEY THE ENTIRE TEAM WILL HOMER EVERY GAME
abender20 - May 14, 2010
Apparently they won one for the Gipper.
What a ridiculous interview.
Cablinasian - May 14, 2010
So wait, did something happen with Griffey?
I read that post from Baker that said that Z talked to him. Soooo…
Coach Owens - May 14, 2010
MR PICKLES ISN'T WEARING A WIRE YOU DUMBFUCK

Mariner John - May 14, 2010

Mike Sweeney: Now ten times more annoying
JBell523 - May 14, 2010
He almost asked that interviewer woman to fight him
Hobetchee - May 14, 2010
So if the homeruns came from Ken Griffey Jr.
does that make Griffey lent over?
chezbergrur - May 14, 2010
Like anyone is still participating in that
JLC - May 14, 2010
Gatorade needs to bottle this "love for Griffey" thing.
ForwardMomentum - May 14, 2010
JOHJIMA!
BRKLN M'S - May 14, 2010
So Sweeney jammed his probiscus into Griffey's gut and sucked the last of the homers out?
Big Jared - May 14, 2010

Bicycle Rider - May 14, 2010
Hug Power!
P-P-P-P-Power!!!!!!!!!
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010
Power "Outbreak"
Mariner John - May 14, 2010
Sweeney's a dumbshit
but he hit a HR and if he plays instead of Griffey he can be as crazy as he wants
ignacio - May 14, 2010
Only if he sits on the bench when Bradley comes back
Baconburger - May 14, 2010
You suck ass Bill Kreuger.
Mariner John - May 14, 2010

Texas broadcasters laughing at Doug Fister
I hate these arrogant fuckers with a passion.
ChaseB - May 14, 2010
Why? Because he won?
Mariner John - May 14, 2010
Sllightly hypocritical with some of the names on Texas' roster.
Eyeball Kid - May 14, 2010
I hate Texans in general.
Mainly cause they’re all Cowboy’s fans.
Fuck the Cowboy’s.
FisteeFisterer - May 14, 2010
The Cowboy's what?
Actually don’t answer that.
Mariner John - May 14, 2010

Robert - May 15, 2010
Hey Brad Adam, they had fireworks in the Kingdome all the time.
Mariner John - May 14, 2010
