Loved this game.
Also, for some reason, Wak is sounding a lot like a young Johnny Cash on the post-game show…
Games won legitimately thanks to Yuniesky Betancourt: -1
Games won thanks to the opposing defense unable to handle his degree of suck: 2
...and now I'm here
He's an interesting vortex of terrible.
Another example is when he and Brandon Inge (a fairly decent third baseman) traded errors in one of the Detroit games.
He’s the team’s black cat.
Interesting stance.
We should play him every game because his suck is only contagious to our opponents. Like selective Monkey flu. This is something that must be studied! The H3I1 strain.
...and now I'm here
Mine too.
And I have the worst sunburn.

25.
15-10 Chart. Plus the screaming commentary. But ONLY 25 words.

1025 if you include how much the picture is worth.

I don't know what I'm more amazed by:
1)Sweeney hitting a rocket out of Safeco
2)Johjima tying the game in the ninth with a homerun
3)Geren refusing to use his two best relievers to lock the game down thus allowing Gonzalez to throw 108 pitches in relief.
Just a crazy game
Apparently there were specific reasons each guy in the As bullpen couldn't pitch
I don’t remember all of them, other than Zeigler has the flu.
It was bizaree how Bailey kept getting up and throwing, then sitting down, then running
back to the mound and throwing again, then sitting down again.
I'd be more excited if Batista didn't lull me into a coma during the 13th inning.
Seriously, though, what an improbable win. This was a fitting payback for Oakland winning yesterday.
What do the red lines between 13 and 14 mean?
I’m assuming they mean something along the lines of “Go ahead and change the channel. This one’s over.” but I thought I’d ask.
Actually, the opposite
Those are high leverage situations, when the A’s took the lead, and then when the Mariners crawled back.
In the immortal words of sketch comedy masters The State
I love the outcome of this game so much I WANT TO DIP MY BALLS IN IT.

It looks like Morrow is getting a little
too excited with Mark Lowe, if you get my gist (23-26 seconds).
Morrow DOES look excited, now doesn't he?!
Everybody is doing a little hippity-hoppity out there and I love it. An exhausted hippity-hoppity, but it’s great.

Lowe and Morrow star in...

What a trial by fire for Jason Vargas, too.
Bet he has to feel like a million billion bucks to make this his Major League re-debut.

Does Jason Vargas have eye shadow or something because if I saw him walking around the streets I'd be reaching for a 12 gauge shotgun cause he looks like a zombie.
You got slurved bitch.
No. Trust me, I've seen him before, back when he was pitching for the Mets.
He ALWAYS looks like that.
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
Almost a Ray Liotta sort of look to him.
Must be a big Field o’ Dreams fan.

JASON VARGAS IS AL CAPONE
Here’s my first try with my screen caps from MLB.tv. I’ll post a modified version of the original from the Game Thread below too.
Kudos on not giving up and leaving
As exciting as it was to watch, must have been 10x as exciting actually being there

Man I thought we were done in the 13th, but man that was just awesome! Lots of people left, I am glad I didn’t.

Don't feel bad
My dumb ass scheduled a hair appointment today, figuring this mess would be over by 4, at the latest.
Oops.
the offseason sucks
Yeah
But I waited until the last possible minute to get out of the damn car…when they tied in the 14th.
Fuck I’m lame. :p
the offseason sucks
Definitely make an effort to listen to Dave's call of the bottom of the 15th inning.

any links?
You don't have an MLB.tv subscription?
If you do, the radio games are free and archived fairly quickly. If not, I don’t really know how to help you.

This game was pretty terrible. Exciting, yes. But the quality of play
was pretty bad in my opinion.
True.
The Mariners probably didn’t deserve to win. But then again they didn’t deserve to lose last night.

I feel worse. I watched 9 innings then left to go play tennis.
3 hours invested and no catharsis, just one giant blue balling. I guess I saw the Johjimer, but that was it.
So I guess Gio Gonzalez is about ready for the majors

I enjoyed this game
because it looked like we were going to lose, but then we won
Let's get them good and cocky -- and tired -- before they get annihilated on Felix Day.
Let’s not forget their team is cursed after taking Dearest Darling Alex.

Would also love to hear this beauty.
Surely he lost his shit on air as much as I did on the couch.

It was every bit as awesome as you might hope.
He was ranking on the A’s outfield defense for four solid minutes afterwards.

I was in a little bar in in Oakland drinking way too much Racer X
wearing M’s gear and was mocked a few times through out the evening, but when it was all over most the people just smiled at me and said this is going to be a fun season and good on me for sticking with my team. Sorry I’m a little too drunk and excited for punctuation
I am no longer in Spokane, but I think I'll keep the name anyway.
Who is that Vargas Kid? i like him

Yeah I go from spokane to oakland. I really do miss spokane.

I'm not going to set here and defend Spokane, but I would live in Spokane over Seattle any day.
And Oakland really is not that bad. It all depends on where you live
I am no longer in Spokane, but I think I'll keep the name anyway.
Having lived in Spokane for the last 6 months I can say
FUUUUUCK this statement. Spokane has nothing NOTHING on Seattle. Except the meth, and the pregnant teenage moms.

My god, I just got back from this game.
Me and my brother basically stayed the whole 15 innings. The ending was a little anti-climatic, my god fucking damn, the bottom of the 13th was so fucking intense. We were wearing our rally caps from basically the bottom of the 8th, and it seemed to have worked.
Man, I love this team. Don’t go breaking my heart now, Mariners.
I thought both Beltre and Johjima's errors should have been charged to
Muscles and Lopez, respectively. Both throws short-hopped, but they were pretty much on target and were fairly routine picks that the receivers just missed.
Why do I get the feeling that this is going to end up in the meme graveyard by year's end...
I'm more like I am now than I've ever been.
Very polarizing
Four guys with a 29% WPA or greater and eight with a -9% or worse.
Y'all are welcome.
I was working and paid attention to the beginning. Didn’t turn it on again til extras, when Oakland went ahead 6-4. Turned it off, thinking it was over. Received text messages that it was tied and called my dad to find out what happened. As I was on the phone, Vargas walked someone. I hung up. And we won!
Superstitious? Yes, but I don’t care, and Jeff should miss more games.
