QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:33 AM) 17,701 is the paid attendance for tonight. Not good...but hopefully this is the last game of this recent trend.

This is the Freddy we know who has no problem giving runs back after we score. He's been flirting with danger all game with these high offspeed pitches. He needs to make some good pitches here.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:32 AM) He's clearly saying he wants Pablo to keep some playing time at 3rd when Crede returns. Yeah, I deleted it real quick once I figured it out. For a second, I thought Joe was a nickname for Marte!

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:31 AM) I just have to preserve this line from Gameday... Bottom 5TH B:2 S:0 O:2 With Tadahito Iguchi batting, Pablo Ozuna steals (13) home. How many other teams have had a steal of home this year? Sizemore had a more impressive steal when he went home on the pitch, and beat it rather easily. And when I say more impressively, I'm not downgrading Ozuna's effort.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:29 AM) I tell you what...we worked damn hard for those 2 runs...now Freddie can have a little bit of flexibility. I'm vastly less nervous now. Well, we know he'll be left in until he can't lift his arm anymore. Go get them Freddy.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:29 AM) LOL! That is a name I barely recall as well. I know he went back to the Red Sox after his stint with the White Sox, but does he even play ball anymore? Last I heard, he was putting up Gload-esque numbers in the minors.

Was that an actual call by Ozzie? I never saw the replay of Pods at first base, so I couldn't tell if he took a bigger lead than normal to try and get picked off.

Holy s*** Pablo! That was awesome.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:26 AM) give what up? Why would any one respond to my negativity? Because it's obvious you're trying to mock people.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:24 AM) pods is the biggest sucker of them all. Give it up...no one is responding to it.

Podsednik!!

Just no K's looking Pods!

Time for Pods to deliver in one of these situations. It seems like it's been forever since he had a clutch hit.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:20 AM) "The Core" is going nuts right now. Are people going to get kicked out of the game if they say something bad about the team tonight?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:19 AM) Please God...just 1 hit...do not get no hit by a guy who came into the game with an ERA over 7. Screw just getting a hit.....we need runs! There's your hit, and we could have a chance for a few runs if not for Uribe's tremendous AB.

Uribe swinging at a pitch over his head and a pitch in the dirt during the same AB.....THAT'S IMPRESSIVE!

Hawk is about ready to enshrine Howell into the Hall of Fame.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:12 AM) suck suck suck, suck suck suck. Trying the reverse jinx....or just mocking a lot of the posters on here?

Good job Freddy....now lets take a pitch, and try to get a hit!

NO BALKS OR WILD PITCHES!

QUOTE(Brian @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:08 AM) How many one pitch AB outs do we had? I've watched back and forth so far and have seen at least 3. Yeah, I think it's been 3, and about three 2 pitch outs. Just a lot of guys trying to pull the change-up.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 01:07 AM) These are the worst pitchers to have trouble against. Someone tell me how exactly our hitters are overwhelmed by Howell? What has he shown that you can understand his dominance thus far? In my view, his ERA is perfectly reflective of his weak arsenal. Their approach tonight is TERRIBLE. I'd be embarrassed to pay money to watch this crapfest. I Don't worry, not a lot of people paid money to watch this crapfest.

Good play Pablo!

We're letting a catcher steal against us? This just seems like one of "those" games.

Garcia has to get that curve ball down in the zone, or he's going to give up a homer on a hanger.
