Am I missing something? Is there a reason Dozier is sitting again?

[snepp]

He needs to be fresh for watching The Sandlot after the game.

Carroll is playing better? Almost 100 pt higher BA to date.

Good inning for Pedro

Dickbert, as they come back from break: "A scoreless top of the first!!..."

It was an exciting path the game started down.

Alright, I think I can say it definitively now:

 

It's not the weather, this sideline girl just cannot string multiple sentences together without falling all over herself. It's painful and someone may need to show her some mercy and minimize how often they spotlight her.

Sideline Girl > Telly.

[snepp]

Bring back Telly.

[Riverbrian]

Oops

[snepp]

Sideline Girl > Telly.

 

Telly's rock-gargling interviews > Jeff Gray

[GCTF]

Telly's rock-gargling interviews > Jeff Gray

 

Based on entertainment value, yes.

[mikecgrimes]

Looking at the radar they will be lucky to get 7 in today

[Guest USAFChief]

Oops

It's still 0-0. We all know it's impossible to hit HRs at TF.

[Riverbrian]

Oh... That didn't happen... Whew... That's a load off. I swore I saw Middlebrooks go Oppo.

[GCTF]

It's still 0-0. We all know it's impossible to hit HRs at TF.

 

It's impossible to HRs to RF at TF so I think that one counts.

Offense needs an oil change.

While they're doing that we'll send the starting staff to get an enema.

I think it worse.... time to fulfill the living will and pull the feeding tube.

[Riverbrian]

While they're doing that we'll send the starting staff to get an enema.

 

lol... Although that will be very new territory for most mechanics.

 

How about an alignment for the Starter Staff. Eh Eh?

[Riverbrian]

I just saw the replay on that Gomes flare.

 

My question... Does Hicks have a gun or not? Looking at wide angle replay they showed... He had a shot at Victorino at third.

[Riverbrian]

Pedro ain't deserving this.

[GCTF]

Plouffe'd

[mikecgrimes]

If we want to avoid getting through 5 those are the kind of plays that help out. Probably gotta drag 2 and half innings another 90 minutes.

[GCTF]

Big Arias, not happy.

[Squirrel]

I have unfortunate timing as to when I tune into a game.

[Reginald Maudling's Shin]

Should be 2 outs now. Gomes looked at strike 3. Terrible
