Damnit. Anderson probably saved a run with the slide and throw there

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:52 PM) This might shock you, but Griffey eats babies. It was a big concern for the team what with Buehrle having a kid about every two years now. Kids on the Reds were just too young to care. Didn't he try to devour Cueto?

Wow. Bachmann. And the last time it happened was 1976. The Ford administration.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:49 PM) I've always been confused at how people thought Griffey Jr. was going to be a clubhouse cancer with the Sox? It's like people are surprised he was a good clubhouse guy. When he was in Cincinnati, every one of their young outfielders said how amazing Griffey Jr. was with them. People actually said that? I was worried he'd be terrible in CF.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:45 PM) The sad thing is, he is very very fast. Not Owens fake fast. Really fast. So all he has to do, is make contact and run like hell. Yet for some reason his swing is long. One of the comments that Farmer made earlier in the year was that he thinks he is a bigger player than he really is and thinks he has power. Once they can convince him to slap and run he might actually do something. "Every time I see you hit one in the air you owe me twenty pushups"

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:45 PM) Were you the one who posted the Vasgersian thing? Mitch Williams was great in that clip. No, can't take credit for that one.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:46 PM) I'd just start Getz, since you know, he's going to play tomorrow anyway but Ozzie has his rules. That's a rule I happen to agree with.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:38 PM) Possible good news with Josh Hamilton headed to the DL Beat you to the post by like 45 minutes I think.

67 pitches through 5.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:32 PM) I'm telling you, all signs point to us scoring many runs today. If Colon keeps pitching like this, and we've got Danksy going tonight...I'll be content with a few more.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:29 PM) Well, in that case HBP shouldn't count towards OBP either, because you did nothing to earn your way on base. You may have done just as much as if you'd taken a walk.

Ok Q, welcome back to the hit list.

59 pitches for Colon through 4.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:21 PM) Am I a retard or is it unpossible to have a .333 avg and a .316 OBP? Sacrifices will count as a PA but not as an AB.

Jakovasaurus on pace to throw 93 pitches through 9 innings.

Whatever we're doing with the bats is not working.

Hamilton may be on his way to the DL.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 03:04 PM) But he did not call the MLB Hotline, which would have covered his ass. He was lazy, and he put a banned substance in his body. Which is why no one here is saying the MLB did anything wrong.

Neither team seems really gunning for it big time yet.

QUOTE (WCSox @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 02:48 PM) The game has officially started, yet I can't access the radiocasts of either team. My only option is Chicago's Spanish station. WTF, MLB??? Seems there's nothing currently offered for this game, that'd be my guess.

Colon got 2 of his fastballs up to 94 in that ab against griffey.

Thanks for that throw last fall KGJ!

Ichiro made an out against us (and there was much rejoicing).

Classic. (Uses word "Hell" if you're at work.)
