Sweet, I was right, it is Veal. As sad as it is, he is our best lefty out of the pen right now. Thornton blows, Septimo blows. If Veal can locate that wicked curve, he's got a shot.

Even this is a better death scene than that lame Bane death scene.....

I don't want Santiago called up because I want Santiago starting in AAA. He has a legit shot at our rotation in 2013, I want that to be his focus. Call up Veal and his filthy curveball.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 07:40 PM) Did they at least do a better job of shooting it? i.e. avoiding the "Rapid fire camera changes substituting for excitement" that the last one was loaded with? Oh my god, those chase scenes.

Kibby with a nice start for Bristol. He's got some real nice peripherals. 54 K to 14 BB.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 04:23 PM) Who is coming up for now? I'm guessing Donnie Veal, but maybe Brandon Kloess.

Ventura announcing it now...

Erik Johnson is just awesome in W-S. Him and Snodgress, decent in Kanny, dominant in Winston-Salem.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 03:28 PM) Our league bought a machine that does a density check on our bats. If it doesn't pass, you can't use your bat. If it passes, they put a special silver sticker over the top of the bat that you cannot remove. If it is removed they can consider the bat shaved and it can be confiscated. If it is confiscated, it gets sent to the state softball headquarters, if it is found to be altered you could face banning from the league. It all comes down to injury liability in our league. Cheater bats increase the chance of injury in their eyes. Wow, your league is a lot more official than ours. No one checks our bats for anything. I could probably easily get a cheater bat and no one would know.

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 03:47 PM) The entire movie Bane was a super badass and in 1 minute he went to 2nd fiddle goon and than dead. Yup, and quietly dead. They never even walked over to check on him, and I don't even think a word was mentioned that he died.

Is Jordan Danks married, or is that not a requirement of the "wives basket" thing? "And here is Brett Myers' basket, complete with 10 yards of medical gauze, frozen peas to help with the swelling, and a sack of nickles in case you feel inclined to fight back"

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 03:18 PM) Robin just wants to be all dramatic about it and pull him in the middle of the inning so he gets his applause. Instead of doing the smart thing, he does the dramatic thing. He could have done both by pulling him after the 1st batter, not pulling him after the 3rd.

HAHAHAH!!!! DUMBASSES!!! AJ scores from first on a ball that never left the infield!

Man, Neil Walker is 5/5 with a HR, 2B.

It's funny everyone on this site said "Take him out now" or "Give him 1 more batter".....and yet Robin blew past both those ideas, and allowed Sale to give up another run and leave on a low note.........awful Robin, awful.

......and just like that, Robin leaves Sale in 1 batter too long.......good god....

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 03:10 PM) But no Thornton. No Thornton unless we score another few runs.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 03:08 PM) Robin will probably give Sale 1 more inning. I'd be ok with him getting 1 batter, just so he can get the standing ovation as he exits. That's the one thing Ozzie was really good about doing, letting the fans give our pitchers some love.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 03:05 PM) Gordon! Get Septimo up. No reason Chris needs to throw any more pitches. Yeah, I'm totally good with Sale just ending it right here. 100 pitches, been sitting for like 20 minutes. With the way Humber saved our pen last night, we can go Septimo, Jones, Reed from here on out.

BACON!!!!!!!!

Come on Gordo.....don't let Melvin make you look like a b****....

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 08:14 AM) No wood bats in our league. And the graphics/color aren't an option. If you want a highly rated bat you get what it looks like, old man Have you ever "rolled" or "shaved" a bat before? I had never even heard of it until a couple weeks ago when the team we slaughtered had the ump check my bat to see if it was "shaved".

Alright, NOW we are starting to get the s***ty hits to fall our way too! Reverse of luck, and we got a 3 run lead!

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 12, 2012 -> 10:16 AM) I'm really excited for Flight. #aviationnerd Ahh! That's what I was thinking of! Flight looked awesome in the trailer!
