Baseball Thread VI

so who is the next punk cub that AJ is going to make his bitch? let's see: barrett, dempster, i say HOWRY, although he's everyone's bitch.

WAR CUBS FANS SHOWING THEIR TRUE COLORS (YELLOW).

 

You think SporstCenter will at least put the Sox-Cubs highlights third -- after the Yankees and Red Sox?

God I wish I was in Chicago right now. The fun I would have.

 

DBacks Batista has set down the first 15.

 

18...

 

First 20 retired... then a walk and a homer.

 

Here's your chance to gain a game, zeke.

Tigers commit four errors (including three in the seventh) and the Pirates take advantage with a 9-2 win.



On the bright side, at the halfway point of the season (before tonight's game), the Tigers had the exact same record as the '84 Tigers.

 

Holy shit! It's about time the Tigers lost.

 

Hey, they had only won seven in a row.

 

Folks, I just saw one of the worst pieces of managing ever.

Royals, Cardinals are tied 7-7 in the 10th. St. Louis loads the bases on a walk and two singles. Nobody out. Kansas City gets a force at home for the first out. Eckstein comes to the plate. Down in the count 0-2, Eckstein tries a suicide squeeze. He fouls off the bunt for the second out. Then Jim Edmonds lines out to center.

Oh, by the way. The Royals' pitcher in the 10th? A guy named Luke Hudson. That may have been the most pathetic thing I've seen a team do.

Suicide squeeze on an 0-2 pitch with the bases loaded in the 10th against Luke Hudson??

Of course, I can't stop laughing either.

And Mark Teahen just homered for Kansas City.

 

Only seven straight, but it seems like forever since they lost on the same day the Sox won.

 

C'mon king, how can you question LaRussa? We all know he's a genius. :

 

I think Ozzie Guillen made a great call to have Pierzynski hit the game-winning homer in the ninth. Brilliant.
