him pitching well doesnt excuse us being down 7-0

 

True, but it's not like we were playing against a AAAA pitcher. This is Randy Johnson, the guy may be old, but he still knows how to toss a gem every once in awhile...

So what are the chances Oz puts in Mack next inning for BA?

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 10, 2006 -> 03:10 AM)
You know, I was thinking exactly that. He probably would keep the lefty in even though righties do much better against him.

 

Isn't it a strange world when rowand starts posting like us? :P

This is usually something I don't say, but even if we can't tie this and win it next inning, I think this can help the momentum of the team. If you disagree...then shame on me for being optimistic.

I'm going to disagree big time with you on this one fathom. Seriously, I don't see any momentum carrying over if we lose this one.

You dont want lefties against Rivera

 

 

ACCTUALLY Mariano's average against righties is better then lefties its because of the way his cut cuts

No Mac no LEFTIES

uribe needs to pinch hit here

 

or atleast cintron should bat from the right side

I just hope Ozzie lets Brian hit against Rivera. BA's due for a big hit :D

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 9, 2006 -> 08:09 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
One thing we should keep in mind, including me, is that Rivera would have been in to face Crede if Crede represented the tying run.

 

i just want to know one thing...is it:

 

Mar iano?

or

Mary iano?

 

cant we just consistentely pronounce the worlds best-ever closers name? even the YES network has 2 announcers with 2 different pronounciations...

Compared to what the atmosphere would have been if we lost this game like 7-2, I think the 8th inning was huge for this team's psyche.

If BA hit a game tying homerun, the Cell would go apes***.....

BA better be hitting this inning. PLEASE

RJ isnt the issue here. its our pitching and managing is for being down what we were

I feel like a wrestler who just did the hand shake with my rival, turned my back, and the guy turns heel.

nice try guys, so close, good comeback

 

rivera wins tonight

if we lose this ranks up in that loss vs Houston for me

it didnt carry over from the big win last night. why would it carry over from a comeback loss?

why would u bat lefty against this guy

naw

Is Cintron gonna swing?

I don't know what Cintron is waiting for. That was strike 3.

wouldnt it be considered pessimistic to call someone "optimistic" who blatantly desires to be pessimistic?

Cintron just took a close ball 1.

Well, if that's true, Ozzie is a pathetic manager.
