Anybody else having trouble with Flash on MLB.com?

I have Flash installed on my work computer, and I can watch YouTube videos just fine, but the complete Mariner home page won’t load and opening Gameday takes me to white space where all the goodies should be.

Mines working fine.

But this is on a personal laptop, not a work computer.

I have that problem sporadically

and if you have access to Google Chrome I’d try that as an alternative. That usually works for me.

“Kazmir used to hit 94-95, now he tops out at 89, 90, 91”
meanwhile, the pitch that hit Lopez was 93 and the first two to Sweeney were 94

So someone help me

One of the guys at DRB already has a boner seeing Kaz being about a tick and half higher then normal. Can anybody watching PitchFX tell me if it’s running a little hot based on Felix’s velocity?

I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.

He looks about ready to credit it to Mike Butcher.

Never mind it’s an inning and a half, and he still took 30 (25!) pitches to get through the 1st.

I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.

So... the NL is actually exciting this season.

I would LOVE for both the Rox and Giants to make the playoffs.

by lailaihei on Sep 2, 2009 4:22 PM PDT reply actions  

The angels are hitting over 300 with RISP?

Maybe because they are hitting about that usually?

another pitcher duel out of necessity

Well, that was a depressing bus ride home.

and this inning wasn’t any better … you know you are screwed when just getting out of the way of the incoming ball results in a pop to the pitcher.

by msb on Sep 2, 2009 5:05 PM PDT reply actions  

I hate that short bastard

But I do like how Rizzs always refers to him as “little third baseman Chone Figgins”

I love how Ichiro looked like he had a smile on his face before he did that.

I swear he knows what he’s about to do sometimes and is laughing before it even happens.

I actually bought a Betancourt t-shirt.

I concur!

And thank you!
We’ll see though – I had a shirt made up in honor of JJ in the offseason that I don’t wear now because it’s no longer topical. :p

Heh

It said “Redheads do it at 97 MPH”

Then they traded him, and I think it’s probably been a while since Putz has thrown that fast. Oh, well.

~I'm on the DA~

by section331 on Sep 2, 2009 6:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

I LOVE THIS LINEUP

Branyan as DH, Loafie at 1B and Bill Hall at 2B. Sounds pretty good for next year! Might save some wear & tear on Branyan’s back besides, since he’s usually turning to his right at 1B in addition to batting.

by Joe Meower on Sep 2, 2009 6:26 PM PDT up reply actions  

I had the same thought.

Even better if Beltre comes back (I can still hope).

I actually bought a Betancourt t-shirt.
P.S. Fuck the Angels!
