I'm not sure
what would have happened if Richie would have been in for that one.
Midnight Baseball - No Lights - Only in Alaska!
OK so we've discovered Cairo's skill
he can fake out runners and make them fall down between first and second
proving once again
everybody has at least one talent.
They were probably four when they watched the show.
And whoever would still watch the show now can’t be terribly mature. I tried watching it later on, but it looked incredibly fake and stupid.

I have some jpegs I'm just dying to post

COME ON MARINERS!
Indulge JI and strand some runners!
Ichiro comes through in the clutch for you.

Bavasi trades Adrian Beltre and King Felix for Player A.
feel it now?
by eponymous_coward on May 7, 2008 8:00 PM PDT up reply actions
No.
He got traded with Bedard for Michael Young.

See, that's not going to work either.
Because, come on, Bavasi making a trade you could say “that’s good” about?

I think JI just mispelled Awesome hat. >:(
I fucking hate you Mariners
Hat was attacked maliciously and unprovoked by a gang of babies in West Town Park.
When that many babies get together they can be like piranhas.
You tried as hard as Richie did last night..so I approve.
I fucking hate you Mariners
It's hard to recognize Richie's face

What the hell is that

I don't think what happened in this series would correlate with Milton Bradley
being called a “complete player.”
See 2nd inning on Monday
Jered Weaver's ERA: 5.59
Also, Zack Greinke is officially really good.
That game would have to be closed to the public.
I fucking hate you Mariners
Don't autistic people have problems with being aware?
Seems rather unfair to have a night about that.

And its not good enough.

She was very hot as a stripper in Closer
Although how can you play a stripper and not show any skin?
WOW
Just tuning in and our offense still sucks.
Then again after Ponson wipe his ass with our jersey, nothing surprises me anymore.
Clement already traveling, speaking with the team
You’re stuck here forever, white bread.
Thank God Sims said 'winning streaks'
I fucking hate you Mariners
They should have left "Soulja Boy" out of the clip
with the Mariners visiting all those little kids in school.
Hmm... Needs more Bonds.
WHOA WHOA
Is Raul’s walkup song “Crank Dat” by Soulja Boi?
carlos silva
looked like the most miserable person on earth in that thing with the kids.
holy crap. he looked near homicidal.
"meaty beefy winning streak"

Too easy
Mariners make baseball look impossible
GOOD baseball.
Bad baseball, on the other hand, is very possible with the Mariners.

[Noon] Oh, Stop!
[Humphrey] That’s sick.
[Frenchy] I agree. Nutter, you were singing in the wrong key!
[Nutter] No I wasn’t. It was Loutzenheiser. I was singing in Eb minor.
[Frenchy] The song’s in F# major!
[Bell] I think they’re the same thing. I mean, Eb is the relative minor of F#.
[Frenchy] No, it isn’t. The relative minor is 3 half-tones down from the major, not up!
[Noon] No, it’s 3 down. Like A is the relative minor of C major.
[Loutzenheiser] But isn’t A# in C major?
[Bell] Wait, are you singing Mixolydian scales, or something?
[Frenchy] A# is tonic to C major. It’s the 6!
[Humphrey] No it isn’t!
[Swan] Well, it’d be like a raised 13th if anything.
[Frenchy] Oh well. You guys are just a bunch of loser diggers anyhow!
[Humphrey] Oh see. You know we’re right!

I just realized something about this. When Noon corrects Frenchy, he agrees with him. Frenchy says,
“The relative minor is 3 half-tones down…” and then Noon says, “No, it’s 3 down.” I don’t understand

Question
What are the ‘recs’ for?
As a longtime guy on here, I should know this, but I havent been around as much so far this season…
x
You can recommend individual posts, which does… something. I know that if there are enough recs, a will end up “Recommended Fanpost” section.
Maybe people should go on a random recommendation spree?
Lol
Why drink beer when I can have grim death that is Everclear?
Never be sad.
If you are drunk.
thats why they call it happy hour.
We are 9th in runs scored in the league....
What? There are actually five teams with worse offenses than us?
The Twins, Royals, and Indians have been worse
I know, I know, impossible, right?
Tigers are a scoring machine
what they still cannot do is pitch or field
I don't know whether to rec or flag
So I’ll play it safe, rec’d
Bwahahahaha.

You sir, get my first rec ever.
I dont recommend eating hot plastic. Strings the throat.
Since we are the only true fans of Lopez
It doesnt surprise me neither of us can bake a cake.
Dave ragging on a big payroll team that's struggling.
Unfortunately the team he’s ragging on isn’t us.
I'll be honest
My mlb.tv is on my 22” monitor, but I have the game thread on my other one and I have NO CLUE what’s going on in the game
No
why would we drink heavily when the expected happens?
I would pay more attention to things like team BA/OBP/SLG than R/G
R/G is a lot more prone to fluky fluctuations. Oakland’s offense has sucked.
or, at least look at BA/RISP
if you’re going to look at R/G
We're fucked
when a 60 MPH pitch is completely fooling our entire team.

Oh my darlin, oh my darlin, oh my darlin Clement #9,

Thank God
because the hopeless feeling I got from 1-0 was pathetic
Why does 2 runs seem unbeatable?
I honestly have zero confidence that 12 outs is enough to score 2 runs for this team.
Oh wonderful
Burke and Cairo to start off the next inning. We’ll be able to grit out a run for sure!
Fuck this team.
Fuck Brian Fuentes too.
and fuck the Mariners for trading him for Jeff Cirillio
its the trade that never stops raping
Game threads make me happy
everything else about the Mariners sucks. We should just have an infinite pre-game thread
I saw some baseball comments
that must mean that some type of event is happening
Let's just become Red Sox fans
so uh what color hat are you gonna get? I think I’m gonna go with the white one
