Hell of a swing by Getz there. Keep Thornton in for the 9th.

I'll take it. Getz should bunt here.

Really could use another insurance run here.

Love this umpire giving Perez no respect

Hawk and Stone...that was not a breaking ball.

I never did like this fat f*** when he was on the Cardinals. Hopefully Dye's ok.

Uh oh, Alexei HBP in the helmet.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 01:13 AM) why can't we hit carl pavano? He had ridiculous sink on his pitches tonight. I thought we got lucky to score 2 runs.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 01:11 AM) Awesome job, Gavin! ERA down to 4.12. Would it be a stretch to predict Gavin's ERA ends up better than Buehrle's?

Efficient

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 02:09 AM) What do they shoot off to clear out the Lake Erie mosquitoes? Old Municipal Stadium, right on the lake, used to be horrible for bugs/insects. Copies of Major Leage III: Back to the Minors

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 01:08 AM) 2007 was totally worth it. Haha..well said.

Hell of an outing by Gavin. 8 straight quality starts.

Beckham with a peculiar play. That should be it for Gavin.

Last batter of the game here for Gavin.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 02:03 AM) Do they shoot fireworks off after scoreless innings or something? It seems like they keep shooting them off after the sox bat. Yes, it's to keep the birds off the field.

Pods has been huge in situations like this.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 12:55 AM) Ozzie doesn't deserve any credit for that. Gavin has been cruising all game, at around 80 pitches, and has shown time and time again that he might the best pitcher in huge situations like that. No one should have even been up in the pen. (Not blasting Ozzie at all, just saying it really wasn't even a debate). Isn't it crazy how often Gavin gets bases loaded against him in the 6th or 7th inning? I recall about 5 showdowns in those situations already this year.

QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 12:54 AM) hyperbole Two worst calls I've ever seen are Crede's 3 run homer called foul at Baltimore in 2003/2004, and the non-called 3rd on Milton Bradley with Joe Nathan pitching this year.

HELL YES, GREAT JOB UMPS!

Oh boy, that's an absolutely terrible call that should never be missed.

Please, please don't make a mistake with a fastball to Hafner.

Pavano is a ground ball machine so far tonight.

Timely double plays so far!
