Bright side: we can “imagine” how great Sowers looks

and Beckett/Saunders is better than Sowers/Batista

Dear Mr. Sabean, I hear you have a reputation of being stupid. Want to deal Lincecum or Cain? You can pick THREE of these 4 players for either: Borowski, Dellucci, Blake, Byrd.

Grady’s already had 2 of the past 3 days off… why DH him? He HATES DHing, if I’m remembering his past comments right.

If a game can’t be seen, does it exist?

Marte in the lineup and batting 7th. Did he bat that high last night? Is that his highest slot of the year?

by afh4 on Jul 19, 2008 3:50 PM EDT   0 recs

he’s hit 7th before. not too long ago.

I think he batted 7th one day last week

I hate Fox, too! Everything about it, except the Simpsons. I’ve got Red Sox-Angels. Why am I paying all this money for the Extra Innings package again?

Why would they schedule a game at an hour where they know that no one will be able to watch?

by supermarioelia on Jul 19, 2008 3:57 PM EDT   0 recs

You realize this happens like 4 times a year?

by afh4 on Jul 19, 2008 3:58 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Haha still doesn’t cease to amaze me though. Have we had this happen since the time in Oakland earlier this year where they started showing terrible graphics?

by supermarioelia on Jul 19, 2008 3:59 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

The game was originally scheduled to be on FOX; that’s why it started at 12:55 in Seattle. When Seattle and Cleveland tanked, FOX dumped the game.

by palcal on Jul 19, 2008 4:30 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

If I could, I would take a dump on Fox.

Speier did an Arnold impression.

The Justin Speier routine?

Followed by them showing his cuecards. Reminded me of when they spoiled Ian Johnson’s surprise at the Fiesta Bowl.

by supermarioelia on Jul 19, 2008 4:04 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Well. That sounded exciting but I don’t really get what happened.

by afh4 on Jul 19, 2008 4:04 PM EDT   0 recs

what happened

by Gradyforpresident on Jul 19, 2008 4:05 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Something about falling down and making the tag. Apparently done impressively.

by supermarioelia on Jul 19, 2008 4:05 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

2b breaking for second base (Grady running) and it put him in position to field a single hit up the middle. He was able to tag Grady.

by Toxicadam on Jul 19, 2008 4:05 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Somehow “J. Carroll grounded into a fielder’s choice to second” just didn’t capture that.

Bloop single, Carrol hung up at 1b. Suzuki throws him out at 2b.

Peralta smashes a ball. Suzuki jumps up and almost makes a spectacular catch. Long single. Francisco scores from 1b.

Francisco scores from Second,

Peralta hits one that Ichiro can’t hold onto…

I was trying to photoshop a picture of Susan B Anthony showing off her shins while chewing on something, but I failed miserably. Kinda like yesterday when I tried to depict Osama sitting on Chuck’s shoulders.

The M’s commentators just described Sowers as a guy with “Great stuff, he just can’t control it.”

I”m not, he just had one bad game.

It’s crazy, if those 5 unearned runs were actually earned (he did do most of the damage on his own), his ERA goes up by 0.5

by supermarioelia on Jul 19, 2008 4:19 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

“His stuff was so good, but he had limited command”

Um, I’m going to call shananigans on that logic.

Mike Lowell just went deep to score Manny being Manny. 2-0 Sox over Angels in the game we’re being force fed by Fox.

Has there ever been some sort of underground national movement to boycott Fox? I ask this not for baseball reasons, but purely out of a disbelief on the stuff FoxNews produces and the fact that sane people continue to watch their other programming.
