Wow, Blake was clearly safe at 2nd base on that.

That was a very nice catch by Manny. His hair could have got caught on the ivy.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 03:58 AM) It will be interesting to see the type of contract Manny gets this off season. The guy can absolutely rake but he is 36 and his defense (not that it matters with the way he swings the bat) is really bad and will only get worse. I could see him getting 3 years, 70 million from the Yankees.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 02:57 AM) Dodgers organization won't let go of Manny. I at least I can't imagine they would not match any offer. I don't think he's expected back there, even though it seems like a perfect fit.

Go read the Bill Simmons novel on Manny on espn.com. Some interesting stuff on him.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 02:55 AM) F it...just move Quentin to CF and Manny to LF and just mash the ball. Trade Thome, put Dye at DH, CQ in RF, Manny in LF

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 03:54 AM) So this Manny guy is pretty good Isn't it f***ing awesome to root for him? That's it...trade Quentin for Lincecum, and sign Manny.

Oh Manny, you devil!

Aramis couldn't get to 2nd base fast enough to block the throw.

That has to be interference on Lee at 2nd base.

Ugh, you can't walk Zambrano there.

Wow, that 0-1 to Kemp was pathetic.

Damn, I really wish the wind was blowing in.

BTW, Torre's hit-and-run call with Loney in the 2nd was amazing. Loney is a huge DP threat, as he's hit into 27 this season. Combined with Zambrano's sinker ability, that was the perfect call.

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 03:19 AM) Zambrano always get that outside half of the opposite batter's box. It's f***ing ridiculous. My first bad memory was that Sunday game at Wrigley in 2003 where Manuel pulled Bartolo after 80 some pitches, and Angel was giving Zambrano EVERYTHING outside. Should've swept that one. I'm sure fathom remembers this too. Oh yes....Marte blew it in the 8th inning. I had to go to my girlfriend's family function after that, and they're all Cubs fans. Sadly, I married the girl

Blah, that 3rd strike wasn't close. Big inning for Billingsley here.

Holy cow, Zambrano is freaking out. Totally trying to overthrow now, and his mechanics are nuts.

Wow, why are they pitching to Manny here?

Hell of an AB by Martin! Way to break it open.

Crap, this umpire is giving Zambrano a huge zone.

What a fantastic play by Furcal! I was worried the ump would get caught up in the atmosphere and call him out.

I'm pretty sure Billingsley is a terrible hitting pitcher. Just take every pitch, and give Furcal a chance.

Wow, Derosa botches the easiest double play ball imaginable.

Just a terrible at bat by Kemp. He's a very annoying player to watch.

Looks like the good Zambrano so far. If he can just pitch on 2 weeks rest all the time, he'll be good.
