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.

Is the MLB pitch classification a formula or does someone decide what it is?

Pitch 2 and 6 were essentially the same, but one is a 2 seam fastball and the other a 4 seam.

Same thing with pitches 4,5, & 7. 4 & 5 are changeups and 7 is a 2 seamer.

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.

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.

At least Brian Fuentes is someone we don't regret trading.

Although it was looking bad a couple years ago.

So how many games has Felix been robbed of a complete game now?

This will be his 7th 8.0 IP game. It sure seems like he could have gone the distance in most, if not all of them.

10 or 15 pitches is a lot when you've already thrown 114.

Pitching tired is dangerous. And the season’s over, so why play with fire? I trust Wak and the staff to know what they’re doing.

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 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.
