Didn't the Mariners set the record against the Orioles about than 10 years ago?

I remember they went 4 hours 27 minutes, or something close to this.

Not surprising Boston and New York now hold the record.

Truth be told

I was inspired by watching Ed Sprague play left field from high a top the 300 level.

If we're going for an accurate Raul analogy

you’re going to have to photoshop it on to the top of a broken down Subarban

Holy shit this game is still going?

Felix Hernandez may be The King, but Justin Upton is a GOD.

Why is it Lowe?

Aren’t we up by 5 runs?

by edddgar on Apr 15, 2008 7:05 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Keep Rhodes in?

We have 5 runs to work with, I’d rather save Lowe when we have the A’s and Angels up next.

So today is pretty much former Mariner day..

Rhodes comes back, AJ homers, Girffey homered, Doyle homered.

And it sort of doesn't count but...

Varitek just hit the possible game winner in Cleveland.

Jeez, I fall asleep in the 3rd, wake up three hours later and it's the 9th.

Nice annoucer banter:

Announcer: “Can you think of anyone who impacted more lives than Jackie Robinson?”

Me: “Hitler?”

That was the LONGEST

3 hour and 25 minute game I’ve ever witnessed. Seriously, that’s not really even a long game, but Jesus Christ was that loooooooooooooooooooong

So...

finishing work, taking the hour trip home, going to the gym, working out, coming home, showering up, and getting dinner all took the same amount of time as this game.

This actually makes me sad to realize the opportunity cost I’ve incurred watching so many M’s games over the years. Fucking Tits… Making me utilize my college education…

Ass.

Cardinals / Brewers

...both teams have their pitcher hitting 8th.

Know your role. You’re nothing without oxygen.

Bitch.

That required a “bitch” at the end. It shows you mean business.

What's wrong with the Flames/Sharks?

We don't negotiate with terrorists.

Nothing

my enthusiasm for them just doesn’t compare to that which I have for Ottawa and AO, though.

Ah.

I just got 10 text messages from my girlfriend...

(who’s at the Indians game) yelling at me about throwing the Youkilis home run ball back. This happened two years ago.

He'd be a fine Mariner though.

Shit would get Rapey at the Safe.

He's at the airport bar,

waiting to be shipped to his latest team.

The airport bars are mad expensive...

8.00 drafts. I save money on my flights only to waste it away waiting for the stupid delayed planes.

I’m not on the payroll around here. I don’t owe you nothin.

My late tidbits

Not everything on the screen at M’s game is as gold as Bradtastic or Fuck Blast. See: Sterling Silva, Beltremendous

Guillen still sucks at OF. Teahen isn’t very good at it either.

Rainiers game

Tacoma just put up a 9 spot against Julio Mateo…. Wlad is 1-2 with a double and a walk 2rbi…. Clement is 1-3 with a HR….. Rohrbaugh hasn’t given up a hit yet…
oh and Chen has returned from his concussion…

Things seem to be looking up in Tacoma

atleast there is a future to look forward too.

99 pitches for Wolf through 7

I don’t think he’ll make it.

Fans are typically idiots.

by The Typical Idiot Fan on Apr 15, 2008 9:10 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I meant in the seventh.

If he doesn’t, it could be a combination effort.

He won't

but that doesn’t mean the team can’t. Especially since a big lead means no Hoffman.
