s***ty AB for Cintron. f***ing swinging for the Dan Ryan.

 

The 2-1 would have been a golden chance for a hit-and-run.

:wub: Brian Anderson :wub:

 

Oh, this makes the entire night so much better!

Great, I'm doing dishes, and the guy I've been begging for all game comes in and makes a dynamite play that I don't see. :crying

What dynamite play? He just took a walk :P

Remember that thread I made about how opponents are able to bring in a Loogy to pitch to Podsednik, Iguchi, and Thome, and they can use that same pitcher for all 3 of them and get 3 good outs?

Lets send Brian. I'd think you could get a good jump on this guy, he may be a lefty but he is slow to the plate.

Yes. Email it to Ozzie.

It's times like this I'm thankful for that righty 4th outfielder we acquired at the deadline.

f***in Iowa State alums.

OMG! what is Torre doing? recognizing when his starter is tiring and pulling him before he can give up 3 or 4 runs? I have never seen such a thing!

Some very puzzling decisions on when to be aggressive and when not to be. This makes the 8th a lot easier for Torre to manage now.

Wouldn't be surprised if it was a botched hit and run, but I have no evidence it was. Just the way things have gone.

You don't do a hit-and-run with 2 outs. That's 3 outs on the bases tonight.

Twice now that I'd rather have a Pods out than that. Now, Myers will get the easy top of order, Pods, Gooch, and Thome, trying to hit lefties.

No biggie...you got to be agressive. Brian can run and Myers has a long arm. BA just got a bad jump or something.

I really want to see a walkoff homer in the 9th. Give us some life.. seriously, let's keep it tied until the 9th.

I would rather see a 5 spot this inning, and then let Riske finish it up.

Lefty in to face Podsednik, Iguchi, and Thome? It's already written, my son.

Iguchi going towards the 2nd base bag is about as worthless as a sack of wet mice.

 

 

 

Every game there is a Hawk Al Kaline reference.

I had a teacher named Al Kane (RIP, old guy).

Argh. Our starter actually gives us decent innings...and bam, bullpen manages to find a way to fall apart right away.

This is getting fuggly quickly.

 

Mac to face AROD.

This could be the biggest spot of MacDougals career

This team is clicking on all cylinders. I still laugh at people who say Abreu wasn't a huge addition.
