Running baseball thread part VIII

As good as the Braves' trades were, I'm more enthused by the trades they DIDN'T make. I remember seeing both Bronson Arroyo and Jon Garland tossed around as possibilities. Yikes.

 

It's tied.

 

Tie game.

Hilarious.

 

Posada doubles and the game is tied.

Tell me about Clemens getting slapped around and how it fucking matters.

 

To steal a word from a fellow SportsJournalists.com member: Fucking FUCKQUAKES!

 

First time in history that each team scored at least 8 runs in the same inning?

 

This is fucking ridiculous. And thank you Dodgers for trading a young player with power who can play anywhere in the infield for the corpse of Scott Proctor.

 

I knew I shouldn't have started Garland; 1 1-3 innings, 54.00 ERA.

 

To be fair, HB, making fun of Clemens is always acceptable, whether it matters to the game at hand or not.

 

Oh boy. Now the White Sox bullpen will try to shut the Yanks' bats down. After all of their success in the last two games, there's no way Ozzie's 'pen gets lit up, right?

 

It doesn't matter. The Yanks are going to win the game and they're gonna be the Wild Card. It's pointless to root against them or Clemens.

 

And to make matters stranger, Karstens throws all of 10 pitches to get four outs.
