QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ May 28, 2006 -> 11:00 AM) Dont look now guys but Crede's hitting again! If he keeps this up for a few more days/a week, then I will be fully convinced we have a shiny new Joe Crede as of September of last year. Last year, he'd get into a funk trying to pull everything, and it'd take him 2 months to fully recover. He was in that funk a week ago, and now it looks like he's swinging a lot better to me.

hmph, Dan Wheldon seems to be running away with the 500 thus far

Vernon Wells taking his sweet ass time there gives JD time to score. Good work Joe and Joey.

Ah, the ol Pop-up/Bat slam.

Dye starting to wake back up...

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 28, 2006 -> 10:53 AM) He was fortunate in the first that Wells ball was a couple feet foul. That one I'm 1/2 willing to forgive...when a guy sees 14 or 15 pitches from you, eventually he's going to elevate something, I don't care what you're throwing. But this inning JG's elevating the ball a lot more than in the 1st.

Way too many fly balls this inning. Get the damn ball down Jon.

Goddamnit Jon, keep the ball in the f***ing park.

Nobody seems to have caught the Major League 2 reference...

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:41 PM) The Tribe might turn into sellers at the break.... As young as their team is...who exactly do they have to sell? Wickman is about the only one who comes to my mind. They have guys like Byrd and Johnson, but IIRC, none of them are FA's after this year.

Well, when your 3 and 4 hitters have 31 home runs between them, I guess a couple DP's are tolerable.

Zaun needs to resume reciting the data from Playboy.

Taubenheim pulls a K-Rod. Nicely done scotty.

Ok, we got the 2 I wanted...now it's time to put this game away. Make it easy for Garland, come on Paulie.

I think Jim's raised his bat a little bit higher at the plate. He's changed the angle he's holding it at.

Thank you Alex. Jim...break one of those windows in CF this time.

We better walk away from this with at least 2.

Walked the bases loaded...come on Alex...that's basically the free bunt. At least Juan didn't GIDP.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ May 27, 2006 -> 05:26 PM) I thought the goal was peace in the Middle East. Not "democracy" in the Middle East. Seeing as Hitler was elected, its the people not the system of govt that mean something. Hitler and the Nazis never actually won an election.

Juan...2 walks already this inning...PATIENCE.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ May 28, 2006 -> 10:35 AM) Well, they do need a 2B more than they need a 3B/1B/DH. And the Angels are going to be letting Kennedy walk at the end of the year and giving Kendrick the 2b spot anyway...the kid's already up, so why hold onto him at this point?

Patience Mack...don't help him out.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ May 28, 2006 -> 10:33 AM) Damage is done though. Even though he didn't give up anything he still threw 30 pitches. They can't foul off 15 pitches every at bat. They were working the count like Crazy. Now it's time for JG to respond by focusing hard on getting that first pitch over so that they can't just sit back like that.

Link. Even if you assume that they're counting every pound of CO2 and not normalizing by number of passengers on the plane, they're still off by a factor of over 10^3.

Man, did Jon EVER need that. Yowza. 2 baserunners, a strike em out throw em out, and that inning took FOREVER. Good work getting through that Jon. Hopefully they won't be able to keep up fouling pitches off at that pace, or we'll run out of pitchers.
