With two on and none out in the seventh inning of a 4-2 contest, Yuniesky Betancourt tried to bunt on 3-0, 3-1, and 3-2.

This organization deserves everything that happens to it.

Have fun working out at first, Jeremy.

McLaren said Yuni made the decision to bunt on his own

...At least on the 3-2 count.

They’ve been trained to do stupid things so well, they don’t even have to be told to do them anymore.

by OlSalty on Jun 15, 2008 12:05 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

McLaren's version of "on his own":

“Now listen Yuni, we got two runners on and a chance to make things happen. I’m not going to tell you to bunt, but it’d be real swell if you did. Don’t get the wrong idea, I’m not telling you to bunt, I’m just saying you might lose playing time if you don’t. Now go up there and swing the bat-or don’t swing it, you know, your choice-and make me proud.”

by Last Fan Of Jose Lopez on Jun 15, 2008 12:14 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Also, why would you bunt in that situation with Yuni?

There’s nobody out, and runners on first and second. Assuming he gets it down, there’s one out and runners on second and third. Obviously they’d intentionally walk Ichiro to take the bat out of his hands.

NOLA came off the bench and hit three homers

it’s was like when the Tony LaRaussa says “fuck it, everybody has the day off today and So Taguchi is hitting third” and they win anyway.

Let's go Nationals!

Sweep the hated Mariners! Finish off this bitter interleague Washington-Washington rivalry! WOO!

[As explained in last night’s game thread, as a Nats AND M’s fan, I’m conflicted…I even have a hard time saying which team takes precedence, given that I’ve followed the M’s since 1995, but I’m a DC native who’s proud as fuck that we finally have a team again. I choose to root for the Nats on the logic that they’re already building intelligently towards the future and have a competent FO/GM/scouting group (Kasten/Bowden/Rizzo), thus they don’t need the Strasburg help that the M’s need.]

My assumption is that the Water Temple is a dual-time thingummybob like in Zelda: Oracle of Ages...

...and that this is the trick to figuring out WTF to do. Am I right, am I wrong?

by esoteric on Jun 15, 2008 1:18 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

You are right.

I don’t remember too much about the fire temple, it’s fairly big, and some backtracking might be required. I think that there may be some things to pull at the beginning as well?

Water Temple is the most frustrating/satisfying temple ever.

by Limerickx on Jun 15, 2008 1:19 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

All's I know is that it took me like three straight hours to get through the Forest Temple

In between falling off of high ledges (whilst trying to snag Gold Skulltulas) and forgetting about the various twisty corridors and getting pwned by Wall Masters, it was ugly. So far the Fire Temple is pretty pleasant.

Actually, the Lost Woods song is the shit.

Whatever its real name is, your elfin sage buddy’s song, I can’t remember her name right now because I’m already drinking. But that song is the bomb.

It must be before the Water Temple (unless I'm doing shit out of order)

Because I’ve done the Forest Temple and every indication suggested that this was the next place to go. I think I could’ve gotten into the Water Temple (in the future) but my fairy bitch kept prompting me to go to Death Mountain, so here I am.

I was literally SCREAMING at that stupid fairy when she kept on saying "HEY!!!" as I kept failing during the Dampe fire race.

It was so fucking hard to get that damn heart container piece. I KNEW that if I got under a minute something would come of it, though. I’m just glad I didn’t waste my time only to get a big rupee or something.

I almost wish I was using an emulator for this...

...as a guy who stopped his original path of gaming with the SNES, I’m woefully unused to the stupid joystick feature (I’m playing on a Gamecube, maybe it’s better on N64). I would prefer to use a keyboard and save states so much.

Wow...

I mean, I know I said that I thought they could do it, but I don’t think I believed it until right now. I came into this kinda cheering for a sweep, but now that it’s happened, it’s not as satisfying as I thought it would be.
We need you, Steve. We need you bad.

Can we fucking bring Clement back up please?

What the hell is bavasi waiting for? Let Wlad play everyday as well. This is utterly rediculous how bad this team is manged from top to bottom.

It's not even an issue of who's playing better

Wlad isn’t ready and has some shit to work on. Leaving him up here now is hurting his development and the Mariners need to do something about it. You know like, they needed to do with Morrow.
