Zakly. Go perfect game the Padres 3 nights in a row. I'm sure our friend would certainly root for that.

I went to a graduation party for twin great-nieces. I imagine that's some sort of bad voodoo.

one hit's a hellava lot more than zero. f*** off and go no-hit the Giants on their faith night. Or maybe they should call it "Jesus Is The Only Thing That Keeps Me From Living As A Fish In An Ocean Of Jizz" Family Night.

No, that's not human nature. That's psychotic nature. That's why hometown fans cheer when a no-hitter's broken up. I really can't understand the mindset of people who demand their fellow fans be "embarrassed" by losing, but root for the extremes. Liptak isn't a fan. I imagine he's still dealing with some Freudian thing with his dad where he needs the team he was brought up to root for to be deflowered by every other team he hates. Maybe he should talk to his therapist about that. Maybe you and Lippy can do couples therapy. I hear that's helpful.

This is psychotic. I guess I understand why you root for White Sox players to get injured.

The wand is getting a bit tiresome. It's cool, but you can't laugh at the same joke for 162 games.

Not sure what you're referring to. There's a cock-suredness that rookies who go 0-4 against a perennial Cy Young candidate suck and should be thankful to be breathing the same air as us keyboard Koaches. But then they go silent when the guy they wanted DFAed all winter turns into a top reliever. I don't even know what "eating crow" is. It doesn't seem to stop the subsequent screeds.

Neither was Bryan Hudson, until suddenly, he was. And something tells me that all the AAA relievers people scream about will come up and be embarrassing, too. Until they turn a corner, then they won't be.

Wouldn't the worst team to play professional sports be the football teams who had zero wins in a particular season? The '72 Sixers went 9-73 for a .110 record. I get the point, but the hyperbole is a little out of control.

Surf's Up!!

Just beers. We go on a walk. 4 bars one mile away. Waiting for a Pete's Pizza at home, now.

Easy with that wand. Don't blow out your spell casting elbow.

It's really weird that God's letting him hang out to dry, even though he took the pride patch off his hat. Maybe God's just a vengeful bottom.

Get on MLB.com and vote your ten times.

We do this every Kay start. "He must be removed from the rotation", but then he gives up 2 runs over 5 IP to the 2nd best team in baseball. While rough-looking, I think Kay's fine for where we are, now.

Watched at a bar with da wife. Looks like Tony Kay was worth one more win that Roki tonight.

...arriving in the middle of the 2nd and leaving after the 7th. Dodger stadium is a nice, historic park with a very dark history of how the land was taken. Back when I went, there was only really King Tacos to eat, and long lines for that. I haven't been to any ballparks where I was questioning my decision to attend. Jacobs Field was beautiful with downtown as the backdrop. I don't believe you could see the field from the concourse, which sucked.

And a guy with 0.1 WAR isn't all that much better than a guy with -0.1 WAR. 2021, a first baseman got the most starts in LF. No single player got more than 86 starts at 2B, LF, CF, RF or DH, so yeah, they were scrambling to fill positions. On top of that, there really wasn't any roster crunch conversation about where Jake Lamb would play when Eloy came back from injury.

What a whiny b****. Boo-hoo, my food was cold because I spent too much time complaining about the view outside the park from the inside of the park, INSTEAD OF EATING MY HOT FOOD!!! Yeah, slump starting sweep would be good for them.

Leading off with Alex Call is certainly a choice. And at what point does the Dodger FO have that serious talk about DFAing the 68 wRC+ Mookie Betts? And Roki is winning the fWAR race against Tony Kay, 0.6 to 0.1. May the better pitcher win.

There's something about the cadence. Costas just delivers. Schriff always exaggerates the ups and downs of his voice like he's reading a bedtime story to a child. Just be excited, not boastful.

Hey, thanks for sharing and I wish you luck on your prognosis. It's truly wondrous where medicine has gone in the last 40-50 years. When I was diagnosed, the best advice I got was to take it seriously and focus on beating it. I hope it's nothing and you feel embarrassed in a week for even worrying. I wish you the best.

Is he any worse than Trevor Richards? As much as people scream about him, Richards has a nice WHIP and is working on a 6 game scoreless streak. Hicks would refuse an outright assignment and become a free agent for the control over his callup, I'd imagine.

Hawk and Wimpy was an entertaining pairing that also taught a lot about what was going on in the game. I don't think Schriff has ever uttered a sentence I found interesting. When he talks about players' game prep, or changes they're working on, my mind argues with it as something he doesn't know but was told. Hawk, Wimpy or even Stone add such a dimension. Even Benetti sounded authoritative in ways Schriff will never touch. His constant "Do you give him the green light on 3-0" is so pedestrian. Any of us who never played ball and have no broadcast experience would stop using that as a crutch after the first half dozen.
