C'mon Correia.

C'mon Correia.

 

They'll be saying something similiar tomorrow in Seoul.

[stringer bell]

Without minimizing the nature and severity of the mistake, and recognizing that everything afterward changes, the grounder Dozier hit to second would in this instance likely have been a DP preventing the run anyway had Santana not goofed and remained at first.

Santana runs on the pitch, Pedroia covers, and the ball goes through.

You say Ko-Ree-Ah, I say Ko-Ray-Ah, let's call the whole thing off.

Fair enough.

US coach a master of the reverse jinx?

In Pyongyang, Correia pronounces you.

This is stupid and funny at the same time. My type of humor.

Interesting motivational technique

This game is kind of boring.

Hot diggity. When did Correia turn into an out machine?

This game is kind of boring.

 

It's a chess match... Pretty soon... Someone will throw a rook

Or try to jump a piece and get another King.

Corriea has given up 23 runs in his last 49.33 innings from May 1rst through the 4th inning today for a 4.20 ERA. So subtracting his April stats he's been his usual barely acceptable self which I guess is good enough for a 5th starter. Though I still want to see May and Meyer up.

[Beezer07]

Poor Arcia...he needs a breather. He's swinging at everything these days.

Or Sacrifice a Parm

You wanted Meyer's most recent start to occur in a major league park?

How is May doing tonight?

I'd go for a Fienchetto. Or maybe call up Ruy Lopez from AAA.

[Brandon]

I didn't say it had to be tonight. If Corriea is pitching well then it is less likely that he gets traded if we are still in the race come July. Though if we fall out of the race he will be easier to deal I guess.

    Trevor May gave up a leadoff double to Mookie Betts to lead off the 4th inning.
     
     
     
    
    • After the Betts double, May struck out Shane Victorino, got a line out by Will Middlebrooks and a flyout to end the inning.

Nice job Willingham.

[Riverbrian]

Stephen Drew looks like a Eric Sogard now.

[Squirrel]

This game is kind of boring.

 

Oh, thank you ... and here I thought I was just tired from driving a combined 1000 miles yesterday and today.

[JB_Iowa]

I'm satellite-less so I have nothing better to do than watch storm coverage (on Antenna) and post Twitter info.

Yeah, but I'd like to see him try to do the same thing against major league hitters.

  Five shutout, one-hit innings for Trevor May tonight. No walks. 5 strikeouts. He's up to 64 pitches so way he starts for Twins on Thursday.

Ha ha Stephen Drew.
