Fun fact, Willingham currently leads the league in infield flyball %.

 

Your idea of fun, sir, is different from mine.

"OMG! Who does your nails?" "Johnny Pesky."

 

This is the current rally avatar?

[glunn]

C'mon Hammer -- put one out.

Hey Mauer, swing the goddamn bat and you wouldn't have to argue if that was a strike or not. I know he is an On base machine, but holy Christ will be ever clutch up and swing the frigging bat in these close situations?

 

i thought outside pitches were his bread and butter?

[ashbury]

Coom was thinking Joe was going to get ahead in the count. When has anyone seen that?

 

The previous inning?

 

/ was this a trick question?

[snepp]

Le sigh.

[glunn]

Damn.

I failed to get a reliever started in time so I stayed with my starter.

[Top Gun]

It's a final.

Gardy, you're not supposed to be posting from the dugout.

[Reginald Maudling's Shin]

Mauer has approximately that talent too. And it's safe to bet that 1% of those few are ever on the first pitch.

Yeah, if you're going to be a crappy hitter at least have the common courtesy to take a few pitches, like a gentleman.

[Gibby]

Lawnmowers Dodge Darts, manicures, and Phyllis Diller. Must have been a crappy game.

But there was a short leash. One more baserunner and I'd have sent in some ace, or something.

That is the message I'd like to think posterity will infer, when they research TD game threads.

Typical Game thread... It makes the Game thread better than the other threads.

We can only hope.

Exactly... If you're gonna be a crappy hitter... At least raise the pitch count number a little before you pop up.

I'm not smart or cunning enough to troll anybody.

Sorry, I thought your comment about crappy hitters in reply to a mention of Joe Mauer was just to get a rise out of someone. It did.

 

And anyone smart enough to quote Monty Python is capable of, well, torturing us with soft pillows.
