Anyone watch the pregame show? If so, Falvey or Levine appear?

I've heard Falvey audio. It's only worth listening to if you want to get angrier.

[RpR]

Pajax is pitching.

Noticed that as well, especially the bottom of the zone is very consistent.

Time for bad jokes.

Do you know why baseball games are best played in the nighttime? It's because bats are nocturnal.

That's pretty good.

Depends on the question.

Duran has been scary lately -- an insurance run would be nice here.

Here's a snippet. I'm going to be honest here and it took me so long to find this. I've worked an obscene amount of hours lately and may have eaten something shortly after the deadline that makes it really hard to do... well, pretty much everything.

Buckle your seat> It's going to be a bumpy ride in the ninth.

You can't handle the truth!

[RickOShea]

At least falvey has a career in politics at his disposal, when he eventually gets canned from baseball.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Not wishing for any insurance runs myself. It may not be St. Crispian's day, but it was a good trade deadline.

[glunn]

No walks please.  Make them earn it.

[Elite Benchwarmer]

Framber Valdez pitching a no-hitter vs Cleveland.  One out in the 9th.
