6/12: Open Game Thread, Part 2
SERVER NOTICE: over the past few days, the game threads have gotten enormous and really pushed the limits of our current server. I've submitted a request for an upgrade, but in the meantime you'll have to bear with us. On the plus side, a hiccuping LL probably means the Mariners just pulled ahead with another dramatic late-inning rally. That seems to be the catalyst.

No.
But I was the only one having steak, (since I don't like Salmon). Believe me, that bottle of Napa Cab that was sitting on the table was much, much more enticing to me. I opened the Gris for my wife. It actually went pretty well with the salmon. I normally loathe salmon (and fish/seafood in general), but the Copper River salmon was actually pretty good.

What are the chances for more 9th inning magic?
The only chance is that Morrow surprises

pinch hit funk blast...
Heh. Stand in line.
Not Davis,
lets see that power swing from Ichiro
why
wouldn't it be smarter to have green walk him so that morrow has confidence when he comes in?
i may have missed something in the game so let me know if im an idiot
They pinch-hit Floyd when Morrow came in.
by Jeff Sullivan on Jun 12, 2007 7:38 PM PDT up reply actions
o ok
Please homer Jose.
They have to score a run this inning.
alright
this ump sucks
A Lopez funk blast would be awesome right now.
I'll say it again. Please homer Jose.
I'm very impressed by Lopez's increasing patience.
Does "Hey Jose" continue

Yankees win again.
Oakland game tied at 4, bottom 9
We should've pounded Hill a bit more.
Ok, start piping fastballs.
Dempster, you suck.
Jason Davis?
Brad Lidge gets removed from the closer role and
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Albert Pujols permanently broke him.
Just thank God his HJs aren't as good as Mateo's.
Trade for Brad lidge

Extra innings will have a more adverse effect
I don't think so.

I hate away games.
Davis is giving up liners everywhere.
*proceeds to vommit*
I thought Davis had that outside corner on 2-2.
And so does Gameday.
19-12 BB-K, nice Davis.
i prefer the walk
This is one guy i would'nt mind walking
It would be nice if one of the starters
i think we come out on top on that one
Walking Lee was a good idea.
Davis owes Kenji a Kobe steak.
Well shit.
Wonderful.
Considering
extra innings
davis actually handled that well...it was pretty high pressure situation -- and i think he got us what JJ would have (only without the authority or coolness)
Why the heck did they take Lopez out
Was there really any need for it?
Dang it Raul

A few innings old now
Is the scouting report for DeRosa to throw a bunch of crap all over the place, or does Davis have the pinpoint control of pre-glasses Ricky Vaughn?

If Barrett doesn't drop that ball. We could STILL
I don't think that was a case of the baseball gods smiling upon us, I just think that was a case of the gods getting sick and tired of the game, and when they saw a runner heading home, they made sure he scored.
It had to be Vidro.

It also had to be Willie to drive him in.

You should send that BCB.

Personally I wouldn't taunt them.
But they are piling on Barrett, so they might want to see the graphic anyways.
If it was us that lost I mean.
In a loving way of course.
Anybody notice that's out first 5 game winning
ESPN actually funny
Haha ESPN makes fun of WFB so much
"up to a BEEFY .267"
..."are you making fun of him?"
..."No, we're just telling the viewers at home how good he's playing"
Everyone laughs
Reading the CBC thread, the Cubs fans are a little
You wanna know why we disrespect the NL Cubbie fans? If the Mariners were in the NL right now, they would HAVE THE BEST RECORD IN THE ENTIRE LEAGUE! As it is they don't even have the best record in their own division in the AL.
I still prefer NL rules
The Capper
JJ
I love JJ, the baseball God's tried to even the playing field by making him sick...still didn't work.
Kudos to EOF, I thought he did a bang up job in relief.
Oh and we need CG from our starters for the next 17 games.
