Hawk called 'Moneyball' 'Billyball' haha

Iguchi flies to right

 

Crazy Carl up

Well, that may be a new Hawk record. :banghead

 

One batter into the bottom half of the first and he has already bashed "Billyball" as he called it.

 

Wow.

I'll go with 5 times.

 

And it's begun!

 

Bottom of the first. Hawk says that he thinks that Oakland will begin to go back to "conventional" baseball...

 

Ugh... I don't even want to listen.

DJ just called Iguchi "Taguchi".

Carl pops out to 2nd

 

Sox go down in order

 

After 1; 2-0 A's

LMAO, Hawk saying you can do anything you want when you have 3 20 game winners, moneyball or not

 

Where have I heard that one before???? Hmmm... Oh yea, ALL OF SOXFEST :puke

 

GET A NEW LINE, HAWK!

Where does Hawk's disdain for Billy Beane stem from?

First, "Billyball" and then, he called Dan Meyer, Dan Haren at the end of the inning.

 

Hawk's getting sloppy.

A's win, Sox haven't.

Where does Hawk's disdain for Billy Beane stem from?

 

I dunno...

 

Maybe it's 'cause in "Moneyball", Beane shows a dislike for the older scouts, the ones who go off of 'tools' rather than results/stats. I assume Hawk goes along with the older scouts, though that could be a bad assumption on my part...

No, Haren is pitching

If I hear Garland say " I did my job" after a loss, like he did so many times last year, I'm going walk over there and sit him down myself.

Garland gives up a leadoff triple, holy s***

No, Haren is pitching

 

Ah, that's right.

 

They just listed Meyer. Good catch.

Please don't. We've had enough problems with fans on the field.

Sac groundout, 3-0

Sorry, you are correct. I'll do it the parking lot.

Uribe really is fun to watch defensively.

First Iguchi then Uribe with solid plays

2 down, nobody on

That's it.

 

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Widger stays with the organization during the season.

 

I really think he'll see some time with the big league club this season.

Garland is continuously missing Widger's spots.

Crede with an error :banghead

 

EDIT-Apparently it's a base hit
