That's no excuse. Those were the worst calls on a sequence of pitches I have ever seen.

Rivera always expands the strike zone to see how far he gets, he sees how far he gets then throws it there. That is how he pitches.

Home plate ump was squeezing Sab and Logan though so who the fucks knows whats with him.

They weren't even in the zone before they cut.

 

[Sanjuro]

I'm not blaming that on the loss. This entire game was full of fuck. Was still stupid to watch.

Tell us how you really feel.

The swing supersedes the hit.

Right, what I thought.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Diamondbacks winning 5-2, Giants losing 3-0.

D-Backs will be 6 games ahead if those scores hold. You can pretty much book the NL Playoffs now. Phillies vs. D-Backs/Brewers vs. Braves.

 

[Square Triangle]

Holy shit is Lackey annoying as fuck. Just hearing him talking in the post game pissed me off.

 

[oatmeal]

Brutal umpiring in the Sox/Yankees game. Both sides.

Mariano got the worst offenders on Lowrie, though. Changed the game.

CC pitched like shit, he's lucky he only had 2 ER.

 

[Corran Horn]

Phillies vs. D-Backs/Brewers vs. Braves.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Braves lose to the Nationals 9-2. Cardinals beat the Brewers 2-1. Diamondbacks beat the Rockies 9-4. Giants lose to the Cubs 5-2.

D'Backs incease their lead in the NL West to 6.0 games. Magic number to clinch is down to 21. Giants now fall to third place in the NL Wild Card race behind the Braves and Cardinals. Cardinals (8.5 back) have moved 0.5 games ahead of the Giants (9.0 back).

No phils mention? They played tonight.

No phils mention? They played tonight.

I made Phillies comments. They won 9-0. Howard hit two HRs and Ibanez and Pence both hit one. Halladay pitched a great game.

 

[Y2Kev]

Hitting Cervelli was pretty dumb. Glad their sense of honor was preserved in the loss.

 

[eznark]

I'm thinking the Phillies aren't terribly worried about the Wild Card.

 

[Dragon]

Hitting Cervelli was pretty dumb. Glad their sense of honor was preserved in the loss.

Keeping CC in the game in the sixth was much worse. They got away with it, but Girardi was playing with fire.

 

[The Elite]

Saw this on a billboard this morning and laughed my ass off.

 

[Doytch]

I've got friends who own a Booster Juice. Should call them up and get some swag out of this.

 

[Dragon]

Jose Bautista always looks high, so it fits that he would be promoting something high people would drink.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

Hitting Cervelli was pretty dumb. Glad their sense of honor was preserved in the loss.

Time to put "show up Lackey because he's a hotheaded dipshit who'll give us a free base in a late and close game" in Girardi's binder.

 

[clemenx]

Oh god, when are we going to stop playing the Marlins?

 

[Kingbrave]

Welcome back to Atlanta Matty Diaz!

 

[Runus]

Welcome back to Atlanta Matty Diaz!

Was about to post this. I always liked Diaz. Will be nice to have another right handed batter.

Lackey sucks, you shouldn't have to resort to such tactics as a manager against him. Girardi is an awful manager who has a great bullpen.

I do too! He seems like the type of dude I'd like to hang out with.

The smoothies offered by Booster Juice come with a choice of "boosters", or nutritional additives such as protein, echinacea, fibre, and other products such as ginseng or rosehip.

Some drinks offered by Booster Juice contain less common food products, including Matcha, Açaí fruit, a Brazilian fruit produced by the Acai Palm, and Wheatgrass.

Yum?

Giants DFA Tejada and Rowand.

Giants DFA Tejada and Rowand.

WHAT???

Corran and Xianaphyz are making out as I type this.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Braves bring back Matt Diaz? Shit just got real.

 

[turnbuckle]

These Royals are gonna be scary in the not so distant future. They've already robbed us of 3-4 hits including a homer. Hosmer's made Porcello his bitch twice through 4 innings.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

There are rumors that the Giants/Rangers are talking about a potential Aaron Rowand trade. Rowand is due $14 million in 2012. The Giants would obviously have to pay a ton of that.

 

[Malo]

Montero is expected to be called up tomorrow while Betances and Banuelos aren't according to Sherman.

 

[cuevas. PhD.]

Juan Pierre is so fucking good, gold glove candidate for sure.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Buster Olney is also reporting the Braves and Dodgers are talking about a trade for Jamey Carroll.

 

[methodman]

In remembrance of Rowand, I'm taking a shit standing up, in remembrance of TeNada, I'm taking that shit on his picture

This KC series has to be the start of Detroits second half collapse.

Yeah but they will have to nuke the team once the payroll gets to high.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

WHAT???

Won't really help the current team's squad, unless the minor leaguers who end up taking their spots on the 40-man roster end up being offensive juggernauts. But at least next season's roster is improved with Rowand out!

Ouch, Peavy. How many bad contracts the White Sox have? :lol

The fuck happened in the top of the 1st?

 

[The Frankman]

Was it as good for you as I imagine it was for Corran, XiaNaphryz?

Ouch, Peavy. How many bad contracts the White Sox have? :lol

I'll say this again: Jake Peavy for Jason Bay. I would do that GLADLY.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Was it as good for you as I imagine it was for Corran, XiaNaphryz?

Nah, I'm still feeling like this:

Seriously, Lincecum could be 20-1 if he had an average offense backing him up. What a waste of a pitching staff this season.

"ANY PLAYER BETTER THAN THE BEST YANKEE PLAYER IS OBVIOUSLY DOPING, YET GRANDERSON IS FASTER AND HITS THE SAME AMOUNT OF HOME RUNS BUT HE'S NOT ON DRUGS NO YANKEES EVER CHEAT" is all I heard from this post.

Yeah, but it's all homegrown talent in their rookie year. We have three years until arbitration and six to free agency on virtually everybody, and the minor league depth is still looking good. A good starting pitcher or two is all it's going to take for things to start looking like the 80's around here.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Attn Royals, do not blow another game late. God damn you.

You should see the fella that just finished picthing to the Tigers for a couple of innings... he's supposedly 5'7" and possibly 5"5".
