No. 14, Encarnacion/Sojo - The Baseball Thread continues

Gabe Kapler senior-citizen tour continues.

Walk-off HR in 13th to help the Brew Crew sweep the lowly Nats.

 

Why is it that Mariano Rivera can not come through in a tie game?
Gave up the winning hit again today after Marte put 2 men on.

And as a counter-balance to Nady's success, Marte has a 9.53 ERA in 7 appearances.

 

He's a nice small-market pitcher who'll never make it in New York?

 

Marte...probably

 

Marte is terrible on a big stage.

 

Just remember, if Tom Seaver was still around, he wouldn't need a closer.

 

Ahhh yes... the hindsight sniper crew.

 

The difference between you and I, simon, is that I know what I'm talking about. Marte was awful in crunch time for the Sox in '05. He was fine under the radar in Pittsburgh. I was in New York the day he was traded and told everyone who would listen he wouldn't do well with the Yankees. I also said it on here a couple of times. Pay attention, son.

 

Dude, I said Marte was terrible back in '04.

 

That's Richy Rich.

 

Sometimes it's tough to agree with pallister. This is not one of those times.

 

Awesome.
