Real World was good the first couple of seasons.

But then they purposely sought after people who would do anything to be on TV and the quality went down.

if Morrow just aims for the center of the plate every pitch and hopes it ends somewhere in the strike zone. The way Johjima is setting up, that’s the way it looks.

66 runs in two innings?

San Francisco would like to sign the entire roster.

by BrianL on Apr 17, 2008 9:47 PM PDT up reply actions  

How about this quote?

The coach of Kawamoto technical high school threw in the towel to spare his pitcher’s arm with his team losing 66-0 with just one batter out in the bottom of the second.

The hapless hurler had already sent down over 250 pitches, allowing 26 runs in the first inning and 40 in the second before Kawamoto asked for mercy.

"At that pace the pitcher would have thrown around 500 pitches in four innings," Kawamoto’s coach was quoted as saying. "There was a danger he could get injured."

I live in Utah and so I had the game on TV.

Anyway, I passed out somewhere around the 17th-18th inning. I just now woke up with my face buried in my couch with the sun shining in burning my eyes.

Needless to say, the M’s game last night avoided being the most boring baseball game of the day. I feel bad for the Padres fans and workers who stayed at the stadium as long as they did to see their team lose.
