I can see it now.

If the offense doesn’t score enough runs to win, Wlad is going to get blamed.

Nice try Raul.

That was pretty

low and away all day to Beltre.

Someone say something witty.

Holy mother of God

I just got to see all the images in the game recap thread.

Well done, LL. Well done.

Sims just lost his job.

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

Say what?

I’m getting the CLE feed.

He was talking about Griffey and 600 homers.

He mentioned both Bonds and Sosa as members of the 600 club.

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

Can we surrender this early in the game.

A 1-0 deficit is possible to come back from, but 2-0…. this team is in serious shit.

by Wilder. on Apr 30, 2008 5:05 PM PDT   0 recs

but... but...

Wlad is going to hit at least two homeruns tonight.

by AtomicGarden on Apr 30, 2008 5:06 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

So is Grady Sizemore...

and Ryan Garko, Casey Blake, and Franklin Gutierrez.

Wow, from pounding the strike zone to a 4 pitch walk

in one inning. Way to stay consistent, Washburn.

Oh wtf?

Hmm... Needs more Bonds.

FREE JEREMY REED!!

At this rate Wash will be lucky to get 5 innings.

What the fuck kind of bullshit??

At least Ichiro is still awesome

Hmm... Needs more Bonds.

NAILED!

Nice slide, Blake

You fail at life.

by JLC on Apr 30, 2008 5:14 PM PDT   0 recs

And yet

he gets paid $6.1 million

I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.

by ralphie81 on Apr 30, 2008 5:16 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Exactly.

Sliding into home is stupid. If you come in standing up, the catcher is going to hesitate and he is more likely to miss the ball, even if your intention is not pound him into the ground.

But on a bloop hit like that, Blake should have been halfway to homeplate by the time the ball landed.

by Wilder. on Apr 30, 2008 5:20 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Yeah, but he should have been in the dugout before Ichiro even got a throw off.

Amazing arm by Ichiro, but slow ass baserunning on the part of Blake.

I won’t complain, though. I am happy things turned out the way they did.

by Wilder. on Apr 30, 2008 5:23 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I always forget what a cannon

Ichiro’s got.
