Bremergasm over LaMarre grounding one to right field.

[Han Joelo]

Hey, it worked!  Okay, now a picture of Mitch Garver's baseball cleats:

 

 

[VATwinsFan]

As I've said before, that was simply LaMarrrrrrrrrrvelous...............

[USAFChief]

So I'm a little cranky tonight. My wife and I were coming home from a nice dinner, and I got pulled over. The nice officer said he was giving me two tickets! One for speeding, one for not having my seat belt on. 

 

"But Officer," I said. "I had my seat belt on! Ask Mrs Chief!"

 

"Is that right, ma'am?" he asked Mrs Chief.

 

"Well, sir, one thing I've learned over the years is never to argue with my husband when he's been drinking."

[Blake]

 

As I've said before, that was simply LaMarrrrrrrrrrvelous...............

John sterling over here.

Regarding John sterling (Yankees radio broadcaster for those who don’t know)...his homerun call for miguel andujar is actually this:

 

“Andujar (pause) hits it very far, he’s gettin miggy with it”

 

He’s the WORST

John sterling over here.

I was thinking more like Zsa Zsa Gabor.

This thread needs some pictures from Carole's shoe closet:

 

Funny story ... on a previous website I used to frequent, we used to have statuses that were dictators. The site moderators gave me a special status because I was one of only two women who posted there. Mine was Imelda Marcos.

[David HK]

Well, meetings and such today, but a quick check-in reveals:

 

6 hits, 3 walks, 100+ pitches for the White-hosed pitcher (belly-itcher?)

 

Aaaaaaaaand.... 2 runs.

 

We're getting set up for another late-inning Addison Reed giveaway, methinks.

I actually like Sterling.

 

No Susan...I can't stand Susan.

[Brock Beauchamp]

That's some top-notch (god-awful) baseball in a laugher (close game) against a good (bad) opponent.

[USAFChief]

How is it that's not a double play ball? We weren't shifted, and also weren't at DP depth?

 

 

[jtkoupal]

Jake Odorizzi's "Law of Third Trip" is applied again!

 

Odorizzi is the perfect pitcher for what the Rays are doing. Start with an "Opener," then bring in Odorizzi, then mix & match from there.

[Aggies7]

I actually like Sterling.

 

No Susan...I can't stand Susan.

Sterling is absolutely fine until he feels the need to be wacky with his childish nicknames and catchphrases

[TwinsCD]

I'm gonna cover my eyes.  Lemme know when this Pressly disaster is over.

[USAFChief]

Awful breaking ball.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Damn, Max, way to scare that bastard back to third base with that throw.

[USAFChief]

Need a K here, Ryan.

[OTPS300]

Because he had to take two steps to his left.

[Aggies7]

FFS garver, again

[mrmpls]

Garver AGAIN!!

[USAFChief]

Garver'd. Again.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Okay, I'm done with Garver.

[Jham]

Mitch Garver is my least favorite player. How overrated..

[Aggies7]

Does this qualify as awful Baseball yet??

 

And Eddie contributes

[Brock Beauchamp]

To be fair, that was a bad pitch from Pressly but Garver gets no leeway at this point. He's a butcher behind the plate.
