holy crap Jason Kubel with a walk off grand slam in the 12th inning to win the game 5-2 ESPN instant Classic game if I ever saw one

wow going to the top of the 9th 1-1 Sox Twins Hr's by Veritek and Cuddyer Johan had 13 strikeouts Schilling has been outstanding

Johan Santana is filthy tonight 7 k's 9 outs

Johan Santana struck out the first 5 Red Sox batters 0-0 going to the bottom of 2

since a baseball player was pretty much caught red handed with HGH and now baeball is getting a lot of flack about their steriod/HGH policy. I wonder why the same scrutiny does go towards the NFL. They do not test for HGH. Gene Upshaw said over the weekend he doesnt support it because its unreliable. Why is this there is disconnect between the 2 sports? And how many NFL players do you think take HGH

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 04:48 PM) I want Sportscenter to revert back to how it was covered/shown 10 years ago. I agree thank goodness I get ESPN News on my cable. less talking heads. same amount of highlights as Sports Center. Plus I can just look at the bottom line to look for a score I want

for the record, tommorrow has an interesting pitching matchup Boston's Curt Shilling -vs- Minnesotas Johan Santana

maybe you dont remember the meltdowns he had against the Sox when he was with the Twins I sure do

Morneau with a walk off. his second HR of the game 7-5 Twins win

Joe Mauer is 3-4 with a walk and a stolen base in this game his average is up to .386 and his name in not even in the Top 5 in All Star voting for catchers well its 5-5 with the Orioles going into extra innings

Patterson was thrown out by Joe Mauer trying to steal third the first time this year he has been thrown out by a catcher (the other a pickoff) as Im typing this, he gets picked off by Fat Boy Dennis Reyes 0-2 in steals tonight

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 06:39 PM) Let's get us some Lew Ford or Torii Hunter. I'd be extremely happy with either one. you can have Lew Ford imo

3-3 and a walk .381 now but Ichiro has been killing the Twins pitching all year 12 hits this series (compared to Mauer's 9) and Ichiro is over .360

I think someone is blwoing some trade smoke a this Hunter deal. About 2 weeks ago, the Twins front office and Torii opened up some contract extension talks. So maybe this rumor is to up his price a bit Secondly, Lew Ford does not have a cannon arm. He is accurate, but not powerful. And he is batting about .230 this year and has taking some realllllllly bad swings

btw, Joe Mauer rasied his average last night too .370 and he got an rbi hit in the first today the man is a machine

Crazy Carl with a walk off in the 11th 10-9 Mariners crap

crazy I hope the Reds can keep the pace up

you're telling me it was unexpected!!!

I was surprised to learn that Grimsley was still pitching! ---- QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 03:07 PM) I don't give a s*** if they implicate numerous former or current White Sox players, I just really want to see some names thrown out there. This whole thing should lead to a blood test for HGH, Grimsley's situation should make the human growth hormone problem a major focal point. I agree with this post --- an interesting take from Keith Olbermann http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12131617/#060501a

Twins lost 4-2 Liriano with his first loss of the season but Joe Mauer went 4-4 and a stolen base he is now batting .368 this year

anybody is better than Scott Ulger who was the hitting caoch last year, and he did a wonderful job last year

The Twins should have 2 more runs, but our stupid third base coach puts up the stop sign too many times grr and things are falling apart this inning 3-1 in the bottom of 6

Liriano -vs King Fleix round 2 tonight

Former MLP ump Gregg has stroke, dies

he almost got thrown out on the double too he started to walk after he rounded first the next guy hit a booming double and Frank gingerly walked home. It was awkard to watch
