49er16 and myself will be combining our ideas for what to do with the MLB Playoffs into one thread here at Keith's Sports Journal. I will be live blogging the Phillies games here and for the rest of the games, we will be conducting this like a Saturday college football open thread. Enjoy the games and leave comments!
Here is your vital information for today's games. (all times eastern)
Game 1: Rockies @ Phillies 2:37 (Jimenez, 15-12 vs. Lee, 14-13) (TBS - Brian Anderson and Joe Simpson, SR: David Aldridge)
Game 1: Twins @ Yankees 6:07 (Duensing, 5-2 vs. Sabathia, 19-8) (TBS - Chip Caray and Ron Darling, SR: Craig Sager)
Game 1: Cardinals @ Dodgers 9:37 (Carpenter, 17-4 vs. Kershaw, 11-7) (TBS - Dick Stockton and Bob Brenly, SR: Tom Verducci)
Game 1, Twins vs. Yankees:
The Phillies took game 1 against the Rockies, 5-1. Cliff Lee pitched a complete game, only giving up one run in the ninth inning. The Twins/Yankees game will start in about a half an hour.
"The wind must really be blowing. That's the first time I've seen Craig Sager's hair move." - Ron Darling (JFein)
"Fisted out of play." - Chip Caray (JFein)
TBS drinking game. Every time Caray says Fisted, drink. Every time that Ernie Johnson commercial airs, drink. You should be drunk by the seventh inning of this game.
2-0 Twins in the 3rd inning. C.C. Sabathia gave up three straight two out hits that lead to the Twins scoring a run. Then Jorge Posada gave up a passed ball which allowed Joe Mauer to score. Could the Yankees already be applying their hands around their throats?
"Minnesota scores first...and they score second, and lead by two" -Chip (AL)
Derek Jeter blasted a 2-run shot off of Duesning in the bottom of the 3rd to even the game at 2.
6-2 Yankees after 5. The latest 2 came from a deep 2-run shot by Hideki Matsui. Duensing is out of the game already and after starting out good, it appears as if the Twins have slowed down a bit.
"Big poppers for Minnesota working here." - Chip Caray (JFein)
A-Rod just singled in Derek Jeter to make the score 7-2 in the seventh inning. A-Rod actually has two RBI's in the game.
Mercifully it's over in the Bronx. The Yankees won 7-2 and take a 1-0 lead in the series. Hopefully we can get more exciting games in this series.
Game 1, Cardinals @ Dodgers:
Even though Randy Wolf loaded the bases in the first inning, he was able to get out of the inning by only allowing one run. Yadier Molina took after his big brother Bengie and grounded into a double play. 1-0 Cardinals in the first inning.
A Matt Kemp 2-run home run gives the Dodgers the 2-1 lead. Cardinals pitcher Chris Carpenter is lucky he only gave up two runs in that inning. The Dodgers were pounding every pitch they saw in that inning.
"I'm not quite sure if he knew where he hit that ball, he just knew he hit it hard." - Bob Brenly (JFein)
The Dodgers scored on a horrible throwing error by Mark De Rosa. The Dodgers are currently leading 3-1 in the fourth inning.
"Our first official beach ball on the field." - Bob Brenly (JFein)
Skip Schumaker knocked in a run in the fourth inning. Then with the bases loaded, Dodgers reliever Jeff Weaver got out of the jam. 3-2 Dodgers going into the bottom of the fourth.
"It is three to one, three to two in favor of the Dodgers." - Dick Stockton (JFein)
"Ethier safe on the infield hit...really an outfield hit." - Dick Stockton confusing himself and all of America. (JFein)
"I'm not sure if they're lion tames out there with those chairs or if they're trying to get away from foul balls" Stockton (kt1000)
"That has to rank up as one of the most exciting post season games in all of baseball." - Dick Stockton talking about last night's regular season game between the Tigers and the Twins. (JFein)
"What a job Carpenter has done tonight. He has toiled and then some, really earning his salary and then some." Stockton (kt1000)
This game is still in the 5th inning and it's almost nine o'clock on the West Coast. I feel sorry for the East Coast baseball fans. I'm sure they don't want to stay up this late to watch a baseball game on a weeknight.
Carpenter somehow escapes another inning, but he did give up another run. 4-2 Dodgers going into the sixth inning.
After six innings, the Dodgers lead 5-2. Russell Martin was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded.
After eight innings, the Dodgers still lead it 5-2.
Broxton strikes out Ankiel and this game's finally over! 5-3 Dodgers over the Cards.
Thanks for hanging in there with this long game. 49er16 won't be around much tomorrow, but I should be. We'll have the same set up here as last time. I'll live blog the Phillies (with no 4:30 class!) and we'll have the open thread for the other 2 games. Good night and I'll chat with you later today!
@ Jay: Yes, you were fine closing out the live blog. ;-)
ReplyDeletekt, actually closed out the blog. I will be in-and-out for the rest of the night. You might have to update this thread until Keith gets back.
ReplyDelete"Will Cinderella's slipper fit for one more night?" - Chip Caray channeling his inner awful announcer, Corporal Cliche.
ReplyDeleteIs it bad that I actually like the Bon Jovi song that TBS keeps playing?
ReplyDeleteBon Jovi is the best. Livin on a Prayer is still one of the most played songs on the radio.
ReplyDeleteSager acting like a weatherman. I'm debating whether to watch/listen to TBS, listen to ESPN Radio, or listen to Twins Radio.
ReplyDelete"The wind must really be blowing. That's the first time I've seen Craig Sager's hair move." - Ron Darling
ReplyDeleteAnd we thought the winds in Philly were crazy.
ReplyDelete"The winds must be bad. That's the first time I've seen Craig Sager's hair move."- Darling
On ESPN Radio, Jon Miller is there but so is Steve Phillips. On Twins radio, John Gordon and Dan Gladden are not good painting the radio picture if it's to synched up to TV. Finally, if I mute the TV, I can't make any TBS crew comments.
ReplyDeleteAs Olmec on Legends of the Hidden Temple would say...
The choices are yours and yours alone.
Runner at 2nd, 1 out. I'm testing to see how I can automatically publish.
ReplyDeleteWild pitch moves Span to 3rd. Still have type verification code but decent. This should work.
ReplyDeleteOof, Joe Mauer stikes out.
ReplyDeleteMauer with the whiff- Dan Patrick'd
ReplyDeleteWhat are the chances that the Twins can actually win this game?
ReplyDeleteIf you want to play a drinking game that will surely end in your death, drink everytime Chip Caray says "fisted".
ReplyDeleteCuddyer flies out. Nice clutch hitting Twins.
ReplyDeleteAnd thought for sure C.C. would give up a run in that inning. Until he proves it, I'm not buying C.C. as a "big game pitcher."
ReplyDeleteAnd drink if you see a blackberry promo.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see Sabathia and the Yanks fail. It would make watching the season-long Nats debacle worth it.
ReplyDeleteFirst-pitch hit by "The Captain"
The Twins have no chance, no chance in hell! /Vince McMahon'd/
ReplyDelete"Fisted out of play." - Chip Caray
ReplyDeleteDRINK!
Caray said fisted! Drink!
ReplyDeleteGulp. Damon pops one up...doesn't actually go over wall for a homer. Shocking.
ReplyDeletekt1000 must be pissed Teixeira, born in Mayland, went to the Yanks.
ReplyDeleteI'm pissed and I root for the O's!
Texeira grounds out. AFraud up, runner at 2nd
ReplyDeleteDuensing gets the Twins out of the inning.
ReplyDelete"Driven to right field and caught."-Caray
ReplyDeleteHe made it sound like it was a home run.
"The more things change, the more things stay the same" -Actually not Chip Caray but me on AFraud's continued PS failures.
ReplyDeleteJay, yes he did. It was a low line drive.
ReplyDeleteKubel check swing strikeout. 1 out.
ReplyDeleteAnother strikeout for Sabathia.
ReplyDelete"They were really two winners last night" -Caray
ReplyDeleteThat's not what the scoreboard or the Choking Dog Scale say.
+1 Al.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to go grab some dinner. Be right back.
No score, Bottom 2. I see I'm talking to myself.
ReplyDeleteP1: Hello, Al. How are you?
P2: I'm fine except my baseball team stinks.
P1:So does mine.
P2: What is that pole Sager is holding?
P1: I don't know but I'm more worried about his suit. Ugh.
Cano batting 2 out, nobody on.
ReplyDeleteHa! Nice conversation Al.
ReplyDeleteI want to watch the Twins bat next inning, then I have to type an essay real fast. It shouldn't take me longer than hour and a half. Then I will devot my full attention to baseball.
Until then, JFein will update the thread.
Cano gone looking, scoreless after 2.
ReplyDeleteKeith, take your time. I've got nothing better to do.
ReplyDeleteCaray and Darling talking about Twins/Yanks circling about the ring, tentative early like a boxing fight.
A fight would make it way more exciting.
First miscall of this game, Pitchtrak says strike 3, ump doesn't. Punto singles.
ReplyDelete"I firmly believe they gave Joe Girardi number 27 for a reason" -Chip on Pressure for Girardi to get Yanks to win 27th World Series.
ReplyDeleteThat's actually a great quote.
Followed by stat, Yanks have spent nearly 1.8 billion dollars since 2001.
5-4-3 double play
ReplyDeleteThe Yankees could have bailed out Wall Street all by themselves.
ReplyDeleteCabrera singles after nearly striking out on a close pitch.
ReplyDeleteKeith, why the hell didn't they? I would give them some goodwill. Mauer doubles, 2nd and 3rd.
ReplyDeleteDamn Mauer is good. The majority of his hits are in the opposite direction. You have to give him the MVP.
ReplyDeleteI love Minnesota. They just keep grinding away. That's there 3rd straight 2 out hit.
ReplyDelete1-0 Twins
Blooper falls in! Cabrera scores! 1-0 Twinkies
ReplyDeletePassed ball and Mauer scores!
ReplyDelete2-0 Twins
If Mauer was in New York, there would be no question, and he scores on the wild pitch!
ReplyDeleteKubel strikes out.
ReplyDelete"Minnesota scores first...and they score second, and lead by two" -Chip going to break.
I'm back and I can't believe the Twins are leading!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm eating dinner so I'm going idle. I can't type w/ dirty fingers.
ReplyDeleteAlright JFein, I have to work on a paper. Update the thread as the game goes along ;-)
ReplyDeleteI never remember Chip Caray being good, but good grief, I don't remember him being this bad.
ReplyDelete@ Al: Wasn't it you who mentioned the plays during the pre-recorded interview? There you go, a Melky Cabrera basehit during it.
Jeter smacks one and it's tied at 2!
ReplyDeleteStill 2-2 through 3.5 innings.
ReplyDeleteRIP Tony Fein.
ReplyDeleteHe was an Iraq War veteran and an NFL rookie this year with the Baltimore Ravens before being cut on the day of the final roster cuts.
Um....okay....Girardi chose the 8-day series because of his bullpen. He wants to give them extra rest and apparently resting tomorrow is more important than resting today.
ReplyDeleteReally? The thought of forcing the Twins to play a playoff game less than 24 hours after what would turned out to be a classic extra innings war never crossed his mind?
Chip Caray was the source so there is a question of accuracy in that story....
Now I'm the one having a conversation with myself!
ReplyDelete- Hi, JFein!
- Good evening, JFein, how abut those Phillies?
- Awesome! Cliff Lee is the man. Isn't Tony Romo a moron, JFein?
- You're absolutely right on both accounts, JFein.
- Thank you, JFein
- You're welcome, JFein.
Wow....That was fun....
I'm trying to concentrate on my paper, but all I hear is Carray/Darling suck off Jeter.
ReplyDeleteYankees take the lead on a basehit down the left field line.
ReplyDeleteI'm back. JFein, that's eery about Tony Fein. RIP Tony Fein.
ReplyDeleteKeith, concentrate on your paper. God, I sound like my parents...Caray/Darling sucking off Jeter was so predictacble after he homered. I wouldn't even make a bet, I'd lose money.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I leave for a few minutes and Duensing can't throw a strike unless it's really hard and Mauer can't catch a relay throw. I should've ate before the game.
Random question: How long until someone starts a blog entitled, "Line Drive Base Hit Caught Out There"?
ReplyDeleteNow Caray and Darling talking up Sabathia as he's Ron Guidry. Good grief.
ReplyDelete7 strikeouts for "C.C." according to Darling. You would never he works the Yanks' rival, the Mets.
ReplyDeleteAre they playing this game at Candlestick Park? The winds must be that bad if garbage is blowing on the field.
ReplyDelete"Random question: How long until someone starts a blog entitled, "Line Drive Base Hit Caught Out There"?"
ReplyDeleteYou know, JFein, I don't have a blog. I have an account now w/ Blogger, and it's free...
OT, Maybe I know why Keith is watching the game and doing his essay. It's almost 5:00 in San Fran. The times of our posts are in Pacific Time. I wish I had those extra hours.
ReplyDeleteJeter walks, actually not the worst thing to do.
ReplyDeleteHot shot by Damon to Cuddyer at 1st. Jeter moves up to 2nd.
ReplyDeleteMark writing a Tex message saying "I just popped out". /John Sterling'd/
ReplyDeleteAFraud actually comes through, singles home Jeter.
ReplyDeleteYankees now lead it 4-2.
ReplyDeleteDid Chip just call EJ, "AJ"?
ReplyDeleteTwins going to Liriano, 5-13 record, 5.80 ERA.
ReplyDeleteGod, I feel real confident he can get out of this mess.
The Twins starting pitcher looks like he's ready to cry in the dugout.
ReplyDeleteMatsui launches one deep into the night. 6-2 Yankees.
ReplyDeleteJFein, I don't know I flipped over to see what my other channel surfing options are, WASH/ND football replay, WNBA Finals.
ReplyDeleteI may have to go surfing now. Matsui, a two-run jack. 6-2.
"The Twins starting pitcher looks like he's ready to cry in the dugout."
ReplyDeleteI'm crying and I'm not even a Twins fan. /sarcasm/
I'm rooting against the Yankees
Posada called out on strikes. Inning over, 6-2 Yanks after 5.
ReplyDelete"This is not good folks"- Duane Kuiper
Lined to short, 1 out.
ReplyDeleteChip, Jeter was in perfect position because it was it hit right at him.
That's a really quiet Top of the 6th for Minnesota.
ReplyDeleteIndiana Fever showing more comeback ability than Twins in WNBA Finals. Phoenix lead cut from 13 to 4, 43-39.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm giving a WNBA update during an MLB thread. I DON'T CARE!?
Great barehand, diving throw by Punto, web gem.
2 up, 2 down in Bottom of 6th.
ReplyDeleteEnd of 6th, show some guts Minnesota.
ReplyDeleteTolbert hit-by-pitch w/ 1 out. Tigers screaming why they didn't that call last night.
ReplyDelete"Big poppers for Minnesota working here." - Chip Caray
ReplyDeleteHuh?
Ground ball kicked by Sabathia. It's up, It's good. 1st and 2nd for the Twins.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Chip is thinking of Pop bands, god forbid.
ReplyDeleteWild pitch, 2nd and 3rd. Posada is awful as a defensive catcher.
ReplyDeleteUnproductive shallow flyout to Swisher, 2 out. Sabathia leave while TBs is in replay. As much as Fox sucks, they would stay live and show the replay coming back.
ReplyDeleteYes, I know everything about TV. I should produce/direct these games.
Phil Hughes in for Yankees
ReplyDeleteGreat at-bat by Cabrera. Hopefully, he can finish it off.
ReplyDeleteDAMNITTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!
Foster's Language of The Game, I thought it was me reacting to Cabrera's strikeout.
ReplyDeleteJeter singles, cue Caray/Darling lovefest.
ReplyDeleteDear MLB,
ReplyDeleteYour great attendance figures are because the big market sell out their home games and many of their idiot bandwagon fans invade other team's home parks on the road.
Sincerely,
Me
Twins go around the horn for the DP, 2 out.
ReplyDeleteChip, AFraud has always driven the ball w/ authority except when he's not on steroids and in the playoffs.
ReplyDelete7-2 Yankees. Snore. Bring on the Cardinals-Dodgers.
ReplyDeleteRed Sox announcer Don Orsillo calling the Red Sox/Angels series...That's sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteAnd nice job ESPN Radio sending Jon Miller to cover the Yankees series and Shulman/Campbell to cover the Red Sox/Angels series.
Their OBSESSION never ends it. If a lightning bolt struck their satellite dish, I wouldn't ask for another thing as a sports fan.
We head to the 8th inning- Chip
ReplyDeleteI head to the lavatory.
I'm finally done. Now I'm going to get something to eat before the Cards-Dodgers game.
ReplyDeleteBack for the Top of the 8th w/ Joba coming in.
ReplyDeleteCardinals-Dodgers will be moved to TNT to start until this game is finished.
ReplyDelete@ Al 6:08: TMI!!!!
ReplyDeleteCards/Dodgers will start on TNT at about 9:30. Easy force to end the threat.
ReplyDeleteJfein, TM?
ReplyDeleteOn another note, the last 4 innings of the Phillies game and this Yankee/Twins game are very, very long.
Dick Stockton does not look right with a light blue tie like that.
ReplyDeleteIt's Senile Stockton and Bewildered Brenly on Cards/Dodgers.
ReplyDeleteThat was cold, I know.
Stockton was very good at one time and works alot more than Joe Buck whose probably half his age.
Brenly is just there, nothing controversial. Thank god.
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteRivera has 1 out in the 9th in Bronx.
ReplyDeleteBases loaded for Matt Holliday.
ReplyDelete2 outs in New York while bases loaded in LA.
ReplyDeleteDecided to listen to Vin Scully on Dodgers Radio. Vin called Wolf's slow curve, a "soap bubble".
ReplyDeleteAnd Holliday strikesout.
ReplyDeleteWhat? Holliday isn't aggressive, Brenley?
2 on, 2 out for Twins then Cabrera grounds out. Yankees win.
ReplyDeleteYankees win 7-2.
ReplyDeleteHow's this stat. Since 1909, Dodgers have 995 victories, Cardinals have 994 victories, with 16 ties.
ReplyDeleteLOL Ronnie Belyard.
ReplyDeleteIs it windy in LA too?
Hahaha....Dodgers drop the pop out and the Cardinals score while the bases remain loaded.
ReplyDeleteBloop single in the Bermuda triangle.
ReplyDeleteGame on TBS now.
ReplyDelete1 and 2 on Molina w/ 1 out
ReplyDeleteWhoa. How did the Cards not score more than 1 run?
ReplyDeleteEven thought it's the Dodgers, that was a sweat double play.
ReplyDeleteDouble play gets the Dodgers out of the inning.
ReplyDeleteJFein, Cards inherited the Tigers/Rockies inability to hit w/ runners on base.
ReplyDeleteKemp launches one! Dodgers lead it 2-1!
ReplyDeleteFurcal singles, Kemp homers. That's an answer.
ReplyDeleteMannywood coming up.
ReplyDeleteGive Lincecum the Cy Young. He doesn't give up that homer.
ReplyDeleteBTW, it's that time of year again for a Tony LaRusa team to choke in the playoffs.
/I find LaRusa to be terribly overrated as a manager
Crap, the Dodgers feed went to Tom Looney doing an update.
ReplyDelete"This is not good folks"
What's happening to Chris Carpenter?
ReplyDeleteCarpenter gets out of trouble. I think I going to turn in for the night. I'm already getting dreary-eyed in the first inning.
ReplyDelete"I'm not quite sure if he knew where he hit that ball, he just knew he hit it hard." - Bob Brenly
ReplyDelete2 on and 1 out for the Dodgers.
ReplyDeleteI'm switching back-and-forth between this game and the Kings game. Former Nova player Donte Cunningham is playing right now for Portland.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrible error by De Rosa. 3-1 Dodgers
ReplyDeleteSchumaker with a double pulls the Cards within 1.
ReplyDeleteAnd Skipper knocks a run in. 3-2 Cardinals.
ReplyDelete@JFein, I thought you went to bed like Al.
ReplyDelete"Our first official beach ball on the field." - Bob Brenly as a beach ball managed to find it's way on the field.
ReplyDelete@ 49er16: Nope, I'm awake, just doing some schoolwork with the game on in the background.
ReplyDeleteso, how terrible has Stockton/Brenly been?
ReplyDelete@kt, I'm actually listening to the Kings game on the radio while the TV is on mute. So I can't say how bad Stockton/Brenly have been.
ReplyDelete@49er16, will the Kings be any good this year?
ReplyDeletealso, i've been watching for 2 minutes and all ready i'm annoyed by the audio problems...
@kt, they probably won't make the playoffs, but they should at least be better than they were last year.
ReplyDelete"It is three to one, three to two in favor of the Dodgers." - Dick Stockton
ReplyDeleteThe man is senile.
@ kt1000: I've only had it on in the background, but from what I've heard of it, it's been pretty bad.
ReplyDeleteBrian Anderson > Chip Caray > Dick Stockton
/Not saying much.
"Ethier safe on the infield hit...really an outfield hit." - Dick Stockton confusing himself and all of America.
ReplyDelete@JFein, just add those quotes to the thread yourself. I can't keep up anymore.
ReplyDeleteStupid of Bowa to hold Either. But what do I know, I'm not a baseball genius like Bowa alledgedly is.
Orsillo is the best of the TBS announcers, too bad they stuck him with Buck Martinez(the most annoying voice in broadcasting).
ReplyDeleteand I'm shocked the Dodgers are knocking Carpenter around like this...
Wow. Each team has left 9 men on base and we are only through 4 innings.
ReplyDelete@kt, I'm not. They can knock around any pitcher if they want to. I saw the Dodgers get to Lincecum a couple of times.
ReplyDeleteBTW, Carpenter did get out of the jam.
How long this game is taking, it might not be over until Midnight!
ReplyDeletethat was an awfully weird angle to take for a fly out to right field
ReplyDelete@Keith good to know..i don't really pay close attention to the NL during the season....
ReplyDelete"I'm not sure if they're lion tames out there with those chairs or if they're trying to get away from foul balls" Stockton
ReplyDelete"That has to rank up as one of the most exciting post season games in all of baseball." - Dick Stockton talking about last night's regular season game between the Tigers and the Twins.
ReplyDeletePull him now, Tony!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, but La Russa is no baseball genius the way people make him out to be. Carpenter has walked two straight people with no outs. It's time for him to take a walk.
you have to ride your ace as long as possible, Keith
ReplyDelete"What a job Carpenter has done tonight. He has toiled and then some, really earning his salary and then some." Stockton apparently forgetting that Carpenter isn't pitching like a Cy Young award winner
ReplyDeletestories like that girl and the Ryan Howard HR ball really bug me...
ReplyDelete@JFein Time Warner synergy baby!
Not that I've ever really been around consistently, but I'll be back in like 30-45 minutes.
ReplyDeletei hope you're off "hanging out" with a girl JFein
ReplyDeleteYou can run the thread tomorrow, JFein ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis is too much for me.
Russel Martin can put this game away right here...
ReplyDeleteMartin HBP! Either makes it 5-2 LA!
ReplyDeleteHow do you hit Martin with the bases loaded?
ReplyDeleteman my spelling sucks tonight
ReplyDelete@kt, because it's Midnight where you are!
ReplyDeleteBTW, if this game doesn't end, which it won't, by 10 I'm going to bed. I have to be at work by 5:30 tomorrow mourning.
@Keith... that is the sensible move, my friend
ReplyDeleteThome K's...the Cards are still alive
ReplyDeletethe Cardinals have the tie run at the plate and 2 out...
ReplyDelete"they hope Sherrill will come up unscathed with a 3 run lead" Stockton. Sherrill isn't even in the game.
ReplyDeleteGlaus strikes out...the Dodgers still lead 5-2
ReplyDeleteYeah, La Russa is a genius. He just had a guy who just go off the DL pinch hit with runners on base and two outs.
ReplyDelete@ 49er16: Do you want me to host it here?
ReplyDeleteAnd my schedule is so much better tomorrow it's not even funny.
@JFein, please take over. I'm about ready to fall asleep and I have to go to work early tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteHoly hell. This game's only in the bottom of the 7th?
ReplyDeleteGood Night, Keith! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWhat about tomorrow, I meant?
ReplyDeleteGood night, Keith!
ReplyDeleteoh, JFein, I'm gonna be bringing the energy in the 8th :-)
ReplyDeletegood bye Kemp
ReplyDelete@JFein, you can host it here if you want. I won't be around much.
ReplyDeleteDouble play ends the inning!
ReplyDeletedouble play...
ReplyDeleteIT'S BRIM REAPER TIME, BABY!!!!!
i've got my Sherrill t-shirt on and i'm ready for him to bring it...
ReplyDeleteIs you bringing the energy a good thing? ;-)
ReplyDeletePop up. One down in the 8th.
ReplyDeleteTHATS 1 OUT!!!
ReplyDeletethat's George's style..put a couple of guys on base...tease the opposition a bit...
ReplyDeleteTHAT'S 2 OUT!!!
ReplyDeleteOH TORRE YOU PUSSY....I HOPE THE CARDINALS STICK IT DOWN YOUR THROAT
ReplyDeletec'mon Albert
ReplyDeleteAnd that's bye-bye Sherill. 2 down and here comes Broxton. The last time he pitched in the playoffs, Stairs "launched one deep into the night".
ReplyDelete/Joe Buck'd.
Groundout. Inning over. 5-2 middle 8th.
ReplyDeleteoh Albert....
ReplyDelete
