Spring Training Game 1: Twins/Red Sox @ 6:05

[Brock Beauchamp]

OMG, Hicks. Come on, man.

[Riverbrian]

Hunter is gonna have to work with Hicks on the art of the home run rob.

 

Jumping into the fence while jumping up usually impedes progress.

[JB_Iowa]

6 months but huge improvement the last couple of weeks.  All of a sudden I realized I could straighten my wrist and lift my fingers but fine motor skills are not quite there yet.

 

Well Hicks tried and apparently didn't give himself a concussion.

[Boom Boom]

Hard to tell if Hicks could have caught that, but he obviously was not aware of where he was relative to the wall.

[ashbury]

Are we witnessing the end of the Tim Stauffer Era?

[Riverbrian]

OMG, Hicks. Come on, man.

Concur... And throw in a Come On Stauffer while you're at it.

Did he have a chance at it?

 

If not, i imagine it's also important to learn how to fall without getting hurt.

If that's the case, i got no problem with it.

[ashbury]

Yeah, I had to look at it a couple of times but I think it was well beyond the wall, as far as having any chance at a catch. But you don't like seeing him hit the wall the way he did - not a skillful look.

[JB_Iowa]

Can we send Stauffer back somewhere?

[ashbury]

but I'm still typing one-handed

At THIS site? Wow.

[Circus Boy]

Gotta admit, I like preseason. No pressure. Games don't count. Stats are meaningless. In other words, it's exactly like the regular season.

[Riverbrian]

I don't think he did... But one day he might.

[Riverbrian]

At THIS site? Wow.

I'm gonna call JB "Rick Allen" until she says she's two handed again.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I don't think he did... But one day he might.

Hear Hear!

I vote for sending him back to the mound.

With another 3 run lead.

I attempted to find an animated GIF of him doing a slow-clap of admiration but it froze my computer.

[Squirrel]

I want to see Arcia hit Six Mile Cypress. Maybe next at bat.

Better that than anchovies. Or worse yet, both.

I vote with your son.

[Squirrel]

Yikes. Imagine if he wasn't wearing steel-toed shoes.

[notoriousgod71]

Good to see the official scorers are in mid-season form. Suzuki out by about 10 feet if the throw is good. Hit.

[ashbury]

Suzuki gets credit for a spring training hit. I think his speed intimidated them into a rushed throw.

[Squirrel]

YES!!!

[JB_Iowa]

Escobar!!!!!!

[ashbury]

ESCO-BEAR!

 

The opposition can not expect to stop Eduardo, they can only hope to contain him.

[Squirrel]

Brian, want a piece of some home-made banana bread? I realize it's not quite the same as a Hawaiian pizza, but it's good.

[Riverbrian]

Escobar!!!

 

OK.. Stauffers turn

[Halsey Hall]

Back to a 2 run lead.  It might take double digits to get a leg up on the mayors cup.

Had Banana bread for lunch today... Opened the fridge and there it was...

 

I said... Yum... Lookie there... Banana Bread for me.

 

Turned out to be meat loaf.
