Now that the event is actually coming to pass
Bedard followed by Felix is a whole lot more intimidating than I initially thought.
Downright scary, actually. YES WE ARE GOOD

Oh shit, tomorrow's game is a 3am start.
Only 24 hours to go!
I am going to be very tired this week. :(
I am just relieved that we won, even if our hitting was poor overall. Nice to see a few walks though. And the bullpen was honourable. And Bedard didn't stink up the joint.
And to think, I could have chosen to support the Yankees or Red Sox...

Four questions? More like one on FSN
Bedard must have pimp-slapped Mantank on camera after her 2nd question for them to cut it off like that.

holy crap, check out the PIT-ATL game
the PIT OF let a routine flyball drop between the LF and CF for the tying two runs to score on a 5 run 9th inning comeback.

Not bad.
Didn't stay in the thread the whole time but that was a nice game. Impressive showing by the bullpen which is one of my bigger fears going into this season.
Heck yea, Putz with a save already!

Marlon Byrd won big points with me tonight
For having a great sense of humor. Brett & Baker, thanks for joining us for the end of the game.
Sorry I had to run after the game, but I was incredibly late for a meeting. Come down anytime. The seats next to us are owned by a car dealership and those cheese dicks bail early all the time.

"Hey Marlon, remember when you were the Phillies center fielder?..." *he nods* "...of the future!?"
Marlon's reaction was awesome. :)
I had a good time down there. I'll keep my eyes open to see if they leave in the 7th again.

He actually chuckled. Turned and smiled at us as he laughed.
He took it very well IMO. I like the guy a lot more today than I used to.

Just got back from the game
and I echo the holy shit it was freezing sentiment! But definitely worth it - AMAZING game and great to see JJ get the save. Bedard I was disappointed with at first, but the more I think about it, he DID get shafted a lot on calls and he had nearly zero control but still went 5 innings with just a few hits and a fuckin michael young HR - not bad overall. Great performance by the bullpen too! Overall not too shitty - and we are a game up on the Angels!

Great game.
Was it just me being a homer, or was Bedard getting really, really, really squeezed the first few innings? I was very impressed by him today and I think he could've easily gone 6, but he was at 101 pitches... Basically, it looked like Erik should've had 2 or three more K's tonight, and the ump screwed him over...
Blind homerism, or did I have a point?

by PShwa on Mar 31, 2008 10:22 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I got a chance to see the TVs
and according to whatever the strike zone thing is, he had at least two strikeouts that became 2-2 or 3-2 counts.

Yeah, I'm watching the replay now...I think Bedard looked really, really sharp.
I thought so in person too, but holy crap he looked even better than I thought. It's going to be fun watching this guy pitch.

He wasn't sharp
Bad control made worse by the umpires.
That was Bedard on an off day.
by Graham on Apr 1, 2008 1:42 AM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Ehhh it didn't look awful.
I'd say it was slightly below average control. He really got squeezed badly today. The zone was at the very least consistently small though.
