2013 MLB Regular Season running thread

The Giants have now won 15 games in a row started by Barry Zito.

 

I meant Yankees. I knew it was the Yankees. Why the hell did I type Twins?

 

John Lackey hurt for the BoSox. Throws a pitch and holds his arm in severe pain. Didn't look good.

 

Took my youngest out to Rangers Ballpark today (wife and I were at Opening Day yesterday) ... During that little video they show right before the game, they slipped in a number of little clips saying "Baseball Town" ... then, in the video, they had Arlington's mayor putting up one of those city limits signs saying, "Baseball Town, Pop. 3,406,280" (which was last year's attendance) and closed with a "Welcome to Baseball Town" ... it was pretty funny.

 

Justin Upton just homered again. Thanks, Gibby.

 

A.J. Burnett throws a lot of pitches.

 

Ranger fans need to let it go.

 

What's the deal with Hamilton's family sitting in the crowd? Sounds like they're being lined up to be insulted. At least put them in a suite.

 

Sure, they probably do ... I chuckled myself. But, honestly, he's on about a 73-for-75 tear regarding his inability to either: A) talk himself out of this; or B) just shut up about it.

 

BJ Upton ties it with a solo homer in the 9th off Marmol and Justin Upton wins it with a solo shot two batters later. That's 5 for Justin, BTW.

 

Also, Carlos Marmol - LOLZ

 

Upton Saturday Night!
