Whoa

You got slurved!

Agreed.

Growing up, I watched the Mariners on the wrong side of games like this far too often.

Dear Lord.

We are becoming like the Angels.

Ok...

that may have been the funnest play of the season.

So he ran all the way to third on the throw?

That’s what Gamecast says…

Single up the middle, Jack Wilson held up at third, throw went all the way home so Rob Johnson broke for second

Olivo threw to second, Rob Johnson slid in safe and Jack Wilson came home, Callaspo threw home, Wilson safe, Rob Johnson went to third on the throw from Callaspo to Olivo.

Not quite

Throw went to the catcher.
Johnson went to second. Catcher threw to second.
Wilson went home Second threw home
Johnson went to third.

by yuniform on Aug 5, 2009 7:45 PM PDT up reply actions  

Seems kind of like they could have just held it at home.

Would have kept the whole thing from happening. This is also one of the first things that you are taught as a catcher,don’t throw the ball to second with a runner on third.

by Kirk on Aug 5, 2009 7:47 PM PDT up reply actions  

And thus our run to first place begins

Sorry guys, anyone who denies that this team is going to win 15 in a row is DUMB…

If we did the Angels would win 16. It's foreordained.

I'm bored with Royals games

I can’t imagine actually being in Kansas City and exposed to them 162 times a year

Incompetence goes a long way.

Especially in the FO. When did Bavasi take over? I know it was around 2003.

by Kirk on Aug 5, 2009 7:56 PM PDT up reply actions  

After 2003.

It nearly perfectly coincided, but 2004 probably wasn’t his fault.

FUCK THE ANGELS!

I've been a fan since before that

Teams have up and down cycles. I remember the Mariners being good, and I can see a point in time when they will be good again. The Royals haven’t been good since when my dad was my age, and there isn’t much hope for the near future, either.

I appreciate Wak's pitch fast attitude

It makes it feel more like those playback games where they cut out all the sniffing,scratching and walking around. Except when Bautista is pitching. Then it is Slooooooooow Mooootiooon

by Whoopetydoo on Aug 5, 2009 7:54 PM PDT reply actions  

Do you think...

they put together those tracer spots because they read LL game threads and felt the need to defend themselves?

by PLU Tim on Aug 5, 2009 7:55 PM PDT reply actions  

Has Loafie actually had to do any of those tests?

His physical ability tests they speak of on mlb.tv?

Yes he did, there are clauses in his contract about weight and general finess.

They suspect he will become a fatty.

I hope you die. I hope we BOTH die.

by BRKLN M'S on Aug 5, 2009 8:01 PM PDT up reply actions  

I know the clauses are there

but have the M’s actually made him do the 60 yd dash, vertical leap, etc. tests? Or is it just a threat in case he gets fat(ter)?

This game is still going? Christ.

Also, what the fuck happened to Juan Cruz? He use to be the premier K/9 guy in the game.

So you're telling me he got 3 people out?

I feel like that would be the Bavasi way of seeing that

It's lucky that everybody else is hitting or Beltre would be killing us

He looks terrible at the plate, I think he needs some rehab starts in AAA. His bat has been pretty feeble this year in the first place and adding rust to it makes its unpalatable.

by Sam Regens on Aug 5, 2009 8:13 PM PDT reply actions  

Hopefully it continues

so no one else will want him :)
