Bases loaded one out and we score exactly 0 runs.

I wish tonights game was a road game. We're better on the road.
If the ball isn't going over the wall, this team doesn't score any runs.

another day, another bad ump call causing the white sox to be two runs down (in the 7th there was a pitch that should have been ball 4, wasn't even close, ump blew the call and if everything else played out as it did the game would have been tied 5-5)
but whatever. streaks of good luck, streaks of bad luck also part of the game.
it's painful to watch this right now, but it's just a bad span of games.
ideally tomorrow the bad stuff will break and the white sox will go back to winning.

Jays suck, my PM has an anger problem, and the Raptors are going to get humiliated by the Cavs.

It sure is looking like it. Just got to watch out for the Mets since they are the only team in the division that can give the Phils trouble.

and they walk the pitcher with the bases loaded to give the Cubs a 2-1 lead

Back to back complete games with Bum and Cueto. This year is soooo much better with those two and Shark even with the end of our rotation being crap.

The Shelby Miller trade is an unmitigated disaster.

I think he knew they lost and he wanted to give Hernandez a chance to get something going because he's been absolutely dreadful at the plate lately.

Man, what a resurgence Gordon Beckham is having. I would have never expected him to hit even close to this well.
And to think, I was calling for his release after like 3 days.

Wainwright looked like Wainwright last night. Tentative relief, but this Cards team suddenly feels a lot better with Wainwright doing what he does
don't worry. he'll start sucking eventually.
his K rate is a career low so far though. those numbers stabilize around 60 PAs (has 57 PAs). so he has that going for him.

Listening to Vin Scully do the Dodger game last night.
That man is a treasure, the likes of which we'll never see again. When he goes, we're never again going to hear the stories, get into the flow of the game or feel the mood set like he can, ever.
I know he's been getting incredible amounts of attention and praise lately. But if anyone's earned it, that man certainly has.
His description of Mike Trout last night was just fantastic. I will butcher the quote but it went something like 'if you were to play God for a moment, and you wanted to create the perfect ballplayer. Well, that ballplayer would be a lot like Mike Trout'. With that cadence, and of course I know I've missed some of the subtleties he added to that line, and it's by no means near his greatest. But here's a guy that has been broadcasting baseball games since 1950 and he can still go on about a young ballplayer and he can recognize the greatness unclouded by nostalgia for a past time.
The man can talk about beards, dirt, or the father of a cousin of a Priates' backup second baseman and dammit if it isn't the most interesting thing you'll hear that day.
Reading that SI article this week on Vin, man, someone was chopping onions or something when I was reading it.

Not playing everyday has affected him very badly, but at the same time has given Thompson the opportunity to get better since Hernandez world have played the outfield.

Good to see. Hopefully he can get his rythm going, must have been super tough with all that time off.

It's weird on the struggles he's had. It all seems mechanics related. Hopefully he's back to form now.
