In the unlikely event that we tie this game, it has the potential to go 30 innings.

In 3 of our last 4 games, Hawk has talked up the pitcher as if they were Johan Santana's equal.

 

YEP. WEAVER WAS THE SECOND BEST PITCHER NEXT TO SANTANA, AS FAR AS HAWK WAS CONCERNED

Before Hawk goes on complimenting Rodriguez, it should be pointed out his velocity is down and he has been hit recently. Ordonez took him deep several days ago. It's not impossible to score off him.

 

Maggs also took Santana deep today. He's just on fire right now.

or longer.

 

not that i'm expecting a tie.

 

two strikes

 

go ahead and steal

Well, his velocity was down. It seems he found quite the day to find it.

 

If Erstad isn't lookiing for a fastball this next pitch he should be immediately taken out of the game.

Erstad had his pitch

If Erstad isn't lookiing for a fastball this next pitch he should be immediately taken out of the game.

 

And he gets a nasty breaking ball.

feel fortunate we won one

Again, I state the obvious. Hawk is an idiot.

Ha....great AB by Erstad. Looks at four fastballs, then chases a hook off the plate. Even my dog knew a curve was coming.

Clutch.

That was a simply f***tarded AB.

 

Stare at 2 fastballs for strikes so you have to try and his his nasty offspeed stuff.

These hitters are so f***ing clueless. I don't know where their publicist is these days.

Baseball Retardation.

4.5 games behind first.

 

No way Podsednik or Ozuna catches that ball in LF. Sweeney saved two runs.

 

Wait, wait, wait. Isn't Sweeney a RF? So you're saying that a player can easily transition from RF to LF? Well, that just defies logic...

 

 

K-Rod comming in. f***.

He really doesn't need his fastball against us. All breaking pitches should do. I wonder what Shingo would do against us right now?

We managed 4 hits off of Kelvim Escobar. And 2 were from Erstad. That is downright pathetic and emabarassing.

And he gets a nasty breaking ball.

I typed the post before his 0-2 pitch, which was a fastball.

How deep into the season must we get before there is actually a real chance that Walker is fired?

You know what's impressive: you can easily say that we have 7 positions in our order that are not contributing at all right now. Only Dye and Erstad can be counted on to have a good AB

Jenks when we're losing...BRILLIANT

Brandon Wood's first career hit. Man, I wish we could have gotten our hands on that guy.

Screw firing Greg Walker, he deserves execution.

It's obvious the book on Jenks and Thornton is to swing at the first pitch straight fastball. Never in a million years did I think Wood would make contact against Jenks.

I don't know if they would take every pitcher at AA and AAA (except for Gio and Russell) for Brandon Wood.

To about the point where KW has to decide whether to sell on his FA's or go and try to salvage the season like in 03. I.e. sometime in June.
