He's trying to gain favor through mimicry!
Also, this game is so dramatic that if I were watching this on TV I would not be able to handle it.

Too bad we are out of the hunt
he’d probably get some MVP consideration if we were still in it.

He doesn't have a chance at 98mph heat does he

I distinctly remember him hitting a HR off a Zumaya 102 mph fastball
It was either last year or the year before. Obviously it might as well have been a decade ago with the way he looks now.

Drayer had a good post too

He's going all nutso now
Complaining about pitching changes and the length of the game on FaceBook…

Why's that?

(1) The lead keeps changing which makes it difficult to write up a game story by deadline
(2) Slow-working pitchers are the worst

*I* hate games like this
But I guess I have the luxury of going outside if I want to…

I am stunned and amazed by the facebook comments on the Mariner posts.
I don’t know why— you’d think I’d be used to the idiocy by now, but ….

I'd ignore them
But they keep coming into my inbox if I so much as make a peep on there. Need to learn to stop typing….

Tampa pulls a Seattle
bases loaded no outs, only need a run to win:
Infield Fly
Pop out
Strike out

I have never heard of Ramon Ramirez before
but he seems both awful and awfully lucky.

Looked like a good heater

My guess is he'll let them tie it up, the inning will last forever,
and then he’ll be in position to pick up a vulture W.
But it already looks like I’m wrong. Fuck me when I predict anything.

That Drayer piece is so full of awesomeness.
“Willie then laughed and said, “I don’t think Yuni is used to having any approach.”
Oakland loads the bases on 1 out
and only gets 1 run, I guess it is comforting to know we aren’t the only team who doesn’t score in those situations. Even if the other team is Oakland.
[DELETED ZOMG NO POLITICS]
but only once!
Brewers now have the bases loaded and 1 out. I think I’ve been at work too many hours as this should not be at all fascinating.

Just using the law of averages, it isn't that hard to believe that this happens all of the time.
The Yankees suck-a-doodle-doo!

I don't get why people found them dangerous this year
I guess it had just become an expectation that their young pitchers would go all Zito Mulder Hudson Haren

I wonder if I could come to love a Hannahan/Tuiasosopo platoon next year.
I hope you die. I hope we BOTH die.
Oddly enough I'm biased IN FAVOR of him because of his face.
He looks like a likable schmoe. His goofy-looking demeanor gives him the aura of an underdog.
I don't know how to stop.
All I know is what I see on Gameday...surely Kenji missed a sign or something?
I don't know how to stop.
The point is that Kenji was told to steal. That itself is questionable.
I hope you die. I hope we BOTH die.
Here comes the inevitable Yuni home run

Compared to the rest of their lineup
He is almost patient.
I would take a small win though.

The man who (indirectly) caused Dave Cameron so much misery and suffering at FanGraphs steps to the plate.
If Yuni sends this game into extras I get to be mod for a day

I really wish the first base umpire would just make a safe sign, even if it's not required on dropped balls.
Aardsma having the first name in the Baseball Almanac is a popular factoid apparently
I hope you die. I hope we BOTH die.
Miguel Cairo
he always looked like a guy who should hit 40 homers based on his stance.

Bahaha, that was perfect in the bullpen.

I love how he doesn't even look stoked to have caught that.
He just holds it up like he’s challenging someone to deny him.

He is doing a bit better at the game-ending stand-up
