Every time. Every single time. Every fucking single time. Every fucking goddamn single fucking time I see this same shit. Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.
This team can't win with 2 runs because this goddamn bullpen can't keep its shit together.

Oh man, I missed the Dodges' bullpen implosion. I got distracted after the walk and pitching change. Watching now.

Yikes and that was at 1:21. No faith in your bats to come back that early?

I know, this is crazy. This is what, 7 or 8 of them now destroyed?
But their two games over .500 which means that they know how to win baseball games, due to having gritty guys like Bryce Harper

If they build it, he will come.
Haha. Probably sticking in town for a bit since he's playing a Cleveland Browns GM in some new movie.
True that. This lineup is so much better than past two years, new manager, only maybe Reynolds is over achieving. I like our chances to keep it up this year.

Well, fuck this. Three days in a row with good starting pitching and an offense so rotten that we lose by a single run.
Ned Yost has never heard of a pinch hitter and manages the pen like he's playing PS3. Screw him, he's gotta go. Send Hos AND Moose to AAA for a couple of weeks, too.

It's nice to see that the Red Sox seem to have recovered from their slump... that was not a good stretch, but they're clearly much better now. 
Also, so I was at another Sea Dogs (the local team, Red Sox AA affiliate) game yesterday. I wouldn't usually post about it, but the ending was one of the most memorable in any baseball game I've been to, so I thought it was worthwhile.
So, the Sea Dogs were behind 7-6 entering the 9th because the shortstop had made a major error a few innings earlier, which allowed two runs to score instead of getting out of the inning with a lead. Yeah, minor league baseball can be like that. So, it's the bottom of the 9th. The other team (Binghamton Mets) closer apparently was 11 for 11, and could throw hard, but his control wasn't perfect -- threw quite a few balls. The first two batters got singles, which put men on first and second. The next guy had a long 10+ pitch at bat, and fouled off pitch after pitch... before finally striking out. Yeah, that was deflating. The next guy also fought, but ended up striking out as well. So, down to the final out. The next batter got to 2-2 count, when the Sea Dogs did a double steal. There was no throw (maybe they were hoping for a called strike three?), so now it was second and third. And then... he walked him! Bases loaded.
The next batter, Matt Spring, hit a grand slam home run on the second pitch to win the game. That hit had a loud "crack", it was the sound of hitting the ball dead on... and indeed, the ball hit a sign over the high wall (Green Monster height wall in left field). Winning a game with a two-out grand slam in the bottom of the 9th? That's the kind of thing you dream about, but it never happens for most people...
Yeah, that was pretty exciting, to say the least.
(article about it is here. As for the uniforms, apparently they were special Breast Cancer Awareness Day light pink uniforms with black sleeves. They look more like circa-1994 Marlins-style Sea Dogs uniforms (with the black sleeves on a light shirt), from before they became a Red Sox affiliate, except light pink. I couldn't tell what color they were at the game, though, just looked off-white.

I have Path of Radiance for Gamecube, so I really liked that with Ike in it. Have you downloaded the DLC? Is Marth or Ike worth downloading, or have you ventured that far yet?

Just got home.
Lol Dodgers.
Lol Dodgers.
they had a few blowout losses i think.
Nah not yet im only about 10 hours into the game, still trying to feel out all the classes. although yeah getting characters from past games is a really cool feature for sure, ive grabbed a couple but they can be hard to get since they're always accompanied by high level dudes who you have to beat :\

Ruiz is fucked, but Howard may be alright. Howard said he's just got some knee soreness, but Ruiz said he felt his hamstring pop.

Eh? Major league baseball can be like that.
At least they still have Michael Young.

Ask Stephen Strasburg if Major League Baseball can be like that. Make sure Ryan Zimmerman's around if you do.

Yawn. Kratz can fill in fine. Losing Howard would be way worse but I think he will be okay.
