At least it was a slugfest.

This is just Tits pitching.

I may have to leave.

This shit is making me fall asleep.

I did that once.

Well, more passed out. Still fell off the toilet, though.

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.

Because of all the TV timeouts

It was probably on ESPN

this reminds me of that epic 18-inning boston game

Except that went 18 innings.

And was really exciting.

And involved two good ballclubs.

Wouldn't it be easier to link the new threads from the old thread?

I hope the Mariners never ever do that

Because I would totally watch every minute of the game and hate myself forever

22 total hits (11 each team)

Here’s the crazy ass box: Link

by sirbrianwilson on Apr 15, 2008 5:40 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

thanks, looked it up myself.

what a mind fuck of a game that must have been to watch. And how crushing to sit through that then lose.

by sammy on Apr 15, 2008 5:41 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

favorite thing out of that box score is how

Seaver went 10IP, allowed just 2 hits, 0bb and 3k, and he was shown up by Jim Ray, who came on in relief to pitch 7 innings with 2 hit, 1bb, and 11k

Turbo

will figure out how to hit into a DP in this situation.

by BrianL on Apr 15, 2008 5:36 PM PDT   0 recs

Nomo is pitching

He should get a hit

by IceStormV1 on Apr 15, 2008 5:37 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Or a walk.

That works too.

by BrianL on Apr 15, 2008 5:37 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Unassisted triple play.

After Mac sends the runners and Sexson lines out to 2B.

by Wilder. on Apr 15, 2008 5:39 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

He could strike out into a tripleplay.

Yes. The mariners are the only team ever to have done this.

Unfortunately, with Turbo on 1st

It could happen

That damn song the used int he Power Rangers movie.

by BrianL on Apr 15, 2008 5:43 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

It would be, but it's not the theme

it’s the “Trouble” song
