I feel kinda bad for Hatch. 

Surprised Rocco wasn’t eager to throw Kiske in there tonight 

[karcherd]

Rocco's new strategy is get behind by 8 runs so he can bring in Clemens.

[Patzky]

That was damn impressive. Nice work Hatchman..

Is it a serious question to ask how Gasper’s game calling and framing is? 

I understand he framed some family photos for his Aunt. She said they were good but not great.

[AceWrigley]

Nice stop by Gasper.

[AceWrigley]

So, Hatch is gassed, and they'll bring in a lefty to face Stanton, great Rocco.

[karcherd]

So you give Judge an intentional walk to first to set up a lefty lefty matchup but don't bring in Funderburke.  But now bring him in to face Stanton.  Is Rocco even awake anymore.

The options are limited. Funderburk and find out

He possesses those skills?  Your observation skills are right up there with Justin Morneau.  😉

Is somebody compiling all of these memorable Morneau quotes of the night?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

This game goes to 11.

Apparently we set a new summer record for bases on balls.

That's the Rocco we know and (not) love so much.

[mnfireman]

Who had Hatch for 100 pitches on their Twingo card...

[Doc Lenz]

When Rocco comes out to change pitchers I get chills. Just seeing the greatness 3-5 times a game is so impressive. We need to appreciate that greatness while we have it.

Tremendous point!!

[Aggies7]

Throw strikes dude

Is this game ever going to end?  Seems like it's been going on for hours.

I wish I would have been.  It would have been a great thread to contribute for tomorrow.  Alas, as much as I am willing to endure watching this game until the end.  I'm not rewatching it in order to record all of the great Morneau observations espoused during the game.

They can only bring up two additional players and one is usually a pitcher.

 CAN they not send a person down...or is it due to them not being on the original roster. I honestly don't see much pitching worth bringing up to this level. Culpepper and Jenkins ..

Timidly raise my hand...

 

Where do i get one?

I never got such a card.

So for all i know, my card has it.

Tomorrow morning there will be a message taped on hatches locker  ...

See manager ...

( Rocco) Mr hatch you pitched and gave a hell of an effort last night , I hate to be the one to tell you this but we're sending you down to St Paul AAA  for a fresh arm ...

Isn't there a law against abuse  ...

You mean framed like this, from Sixteen Candles when they were making out in the car?

I don't disagree but Rocco is going to be using every available arm in the bullpen and I am guessing they will want one more.  And they did just sign another castoff so I am sure he will be up soon as well.

Has to go to 10 runs.  I am just waiting to maybe see a Clemens return to the mound at Yankees Stadium

Begs the question... who's our drummer?

[Western SD Fan]

Someone please explain to me why Clemens is positioned so far inside the RF wall.  We always hear about the famous short porch of Yankee Stadium's RF.  You would think that they would position their fielder a little bit farther back so those balls don't go over his head.
