[rando14]

If he's lucky he'll last 3 innings.

Get well soon Kuma and Taijuan.

Yup. Well, at least he's getting out of jams (so far) :\

Just got in. How did the M's score their first point? From this page it seems Elias isn't looking too hot...

Throwing too many pitches, has like 6 full counts through the first two IP

 

[Chris R]

We might have a solid 4 rotation??? Nice!

"Houston Astros ‏@astros 12m

We're going to have to talk about what just happened, aren't we?"

lolz

 

[Loco4Coco]

Chavez looks malnourished.

 

[Fox318]

The hell was wrong with that woman in the orange shirt?

 

[3N16MA]

The hell was wrong with that woman in the orange shirt?

Embarrassing herself.

 

[UraMallas]

Okay. They just explained how M's got their first run. I don't hold it against anybody for not explaining that - it was a mouthful.

 

[BigAT]

The hell was wrong with that woman in the orange shirt?

So desperate and ridiculous, made me cringe.

 

[Chris R]

There are like 20 people at the game... WTF Oakland.

I missed it, what happened?

It's Oakland... I'd be scared to go there too.

Plus O.co Stadium is a dump.

 

[Dominican Power]

Offense is shit.

 

[3N16MA]

Solarte doing it all.

 

[UraMallas]

On a Thursday night, too. Damn.

 

[jello44]

Carter strikes out on a pitch about a mile outside of the strike zone.

Jeter was trying to give a little girl a ball after the end of the inning. Some lady is getting in his way begging for the ball.

 

[Loco4Coco]

A lady was going crazy for Jeter's ball.

Carter strikes out on a pitch about a mile outside of the strike zone.

So nothing new.

Overhead angle:

LOL

 

[BigAT]

I missed it, what happened?

Jeter came over to the stands after an inning to give a ball to a little girl in a Jeter shirt, some older woman in an Astros shirt was begging him for the ball, then when Jeter went to give the little girl the ball the woman actually tried to reach and grab it out of his hands. He actually had to pull back a couple times so she wouldn't take it out of his hands as he was giving it to the little girl.

Ugh... I hate that shit. Reminds me of that one lady who grabbed the ball out of the little girl's hands and held it up and celebrated like she won the fucking lottery.

Fuck, these people can go to the store and BUY one.. disgraceful.

 

[Doogdogg]

Pete Abraham ‏@PeteAbe 18m
Counting the postseason, @TeamUehara in his last 48 appearances: 52.2 IP, 9 H, 1 R,1 ER, 1 BB, 66 K. That would be a 0.17 ERA, 0.19 WHIP

OMG

But why do that when you can tell your grandkids the time you were given a ball by the Captain.

 

[UraMallas]

OMG

That is seriously unfathomable. Like the size of Suns, my brain can't comprehend those numbers.

 

[Syrinx]

OMG

What the fuck, damn...

 

[Chris R]

5 pitches that inning, very nice

 

[sangreal]

Throw to first some more

 

[Chuck]

YES network made this nice 'under review' graphic and they're going to use it dammit!

 

[Doogdogg]

That is seriously unfathomable. Like the size of Suns, my brain can't comprehend those numbers.

He retired 37 straight batter at one point, and the guy reach was on a misplay ball.

 

[Chris R]

Great base running and more run support! Yes

 

[rando14]

Baseball points!!

 

[Chuck]

THEY DID IT

 

[Malo]

Baseball points!!

I know you guys are offensive juggernauts, but can you guys keep it within 3 runs? I need a Rodney save!

 

[Macattk15]

Abraham Almonte is fast.

edit : Then he fucks up baserunning there. Poop.

 

[UraMallas]

These M's bats are dangerous to start the season.

Edit: I have no idea what Almonte saw there.

 

[Chris R]

Can I take the bit about good base running back?

 

[captmcblack]

TIME FOR SON OF GOD TO CLOSE

 

[rando14]

I know you guys are offensive juggernauts, but can you guys keep it within 3 runs? I need a Rodney save!

Almonte's got your back, he just screwed up with his baserunning lol

 

[UraMallas]

It shall be written on your tombstone as epitaph.

 

[3N16MA]

D-Rob taking his place as the next great closer.

 

[Macattk15]

Almonte's got your back, he just screwed up with his baserunning lol

Sure did. But hey he got an RBI and took an extra base ... and made a nice play in the field the previous inning.

I'll let this one slide .... as long as we win ...

 

[Dominican Power]

Michael Kay, if you fail the 8th, you'll more than likely lose the game.

 

[jello44]

Castro with a foot contusion.

Great.

 

[sangreal]

It's going to be an entire season of Kay droning on about how special closers are, isn't it

 

[rando14]

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

this piece of shit ump, that breaker was right down the middle. Fuck off

EDIT: AND THEN HE SINGLES. Can we fucking take the umps out of the game forever

Sure did. But hey he got an RBI and took an extra base ... and made a nice play in the field the previous inning.

I'll let this one slide .... as long as we win ...

Agreed!!

 

[Pryce]

This umpire in Oakland should be fired.

 

[3N16MA]

Yankees win! The start of a win streak.

 

[Malo]

Yanquis win!
