  1. Mr. Mauer will inform you if the pitch is a strike.
  2. Wow, it's great to see Hildenberger pitch like this.
  3. I sent an email about this to an umpire friend. I'll see if he responds while the game thread is still active.
  4. Worst jinx of the last week. Maybe of the whole season.
  5. Grab it right away, take 3 steps to step on home and throw to first for the DP. And Dick is calling it a good play by Garver. Sorry, no.
  6. Even if you think it will go foul get the sure out.
  7. MAJOR mental mistake by Garver. Pick it up right away and get the sure out.
  8. Depends on which 3 guys. Morneau is OK for a rookie and Smalley is the best of the other color guys.
  9. It's your obligation, nay, your responsibility to see to a victory in each and every Chicago game. Unless you don't feel like going, of course.
  10. Every player's career ends at some point. I hold no negative thoughts about Phil Hughes but the time appears to have come. I was at Steve Carlton's last major league game in 1988. He made an unsuccessful appearance out of the bullpen and when he was pulled I stood up and applauded and yelled, "Great career, Lefty!" His 1972 season is considered by many to be the best season ever by a starting pitcher. He was 27-10 with a 1.97 ERA for a team that went 59-97.
  11. Blyleven was a once-in-a-generation talent. He should have been a first ballot HOFer. When he retired he was third all-time in strikeouts. BLEEPING THIRD! It would be like voting down the third all-time home run hitter just because he played on losing teams. A travesty.
  12. No athlete can be at his or her peak every time. There will be days like this for any 23 year old pitcher, even one who is very talented. We can only hope that he snaps back next time and that the offense can come back and win today's game.
  13. Maybe not best. Based on performance this year I'd say Berrios. But I'd say he's MVP of April.
  14. Votto assumed Morrison threw to second base without stepping on first base first, so he thought he was out and was sliding to avoid interference.
  15. Don't let Chief know. He might tell one of his little vignettes he thinks are funny.
  16. Wonder if Molitor would consider bringing Mauer in to play 1B in the top of the ninth. We'd lose the DH but if all goes well that's a moot point.
  17. Nice catch fighting the sun by Rosario. Target Field is a beautiful place, but from home plate to center field is almost exactly west to east. That's why it's such a horrible place for outfielders in the second part of the afternoon.
  18. Ok, let's follow the tried-and-true formula: Reed in the 8th and Rodn... Ok, let's see if we can score some runs in the bottom of the 8th!
  19. Couldn't not go for a walk on a beautiful spring afternoon. Just got back and I like the score. Let's see if we can get some insurance.
