JT Snow and Darren Baker, 12 years later:

Wow. I had completely forgotten about that moment. Time flies!

For anyone else that forgot:

Classic.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

He looks the same. Actually why did he retire? He could still hit in his last season.

Collusion. Bud Selig is a piece of shit.

Lol wth is happening here

Lol wth is happening here

Dusty Baker's 3-year old son Darren was a bat boy in the 2002 WS when he nearly got ran over going for a bat during action at home plate.

After it happened, the MLB instituted a rule that required bat boys to be 14 years old.

 

[Askani]

Went to the final regular season Sporting KC game last night instead of watching the WS. Sounds like I didn't miss much. Bummer wrecked us again. That guy is nails. Incredible.

You're not Sanjuro!

I wonder why Fox didn't bother showing any of the Robin Williams pre-game tribute stuff, at least his kids throwing out the first pitch to Billy Crystal.

Because it's fox, and they wanted to subject us to more Joe Buck.

Joe Buck is the best!

the Oscar Tavares stuff is just sad. Not only that, but there is always something eerie to me when athletes or artists (musicians/actors) are cut down far before they even have a chance to hit their prime.

The San Jose Dodgers will be fine in 2022.

A foul ball caromed into the Giants dugout Friday night in Game 3 of the World Series, and Peavy foolishly stuck out his right hand to catch it.

The ball skipped off his right thumb, bending it all the way back and tearing off skin. Peavy has been undergoing treatment, wrapping his thumb in ice each day to calm the swelling.

GG Royals.

GG Royals.

Petit to come in the 2nd inning confirmed.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

It's pretty big news if the Giants have to go to their pen early with a game 7 potentially looming.

 

[HBP]

Peavy, who had a muscle torn off the back of his shoulder four years ago and once pitched after slicing his hand while opening a can of cat food, is not about to let a swollen thumb get in the way of bringing home the Giants' their third title in five years.

What is with this dude? Lol.

If this leads to the Giants losing the WS...

SMH

 

[XiaNaphryz]

It's pretty big news if the Giants have to go to their pen early with a game 7 potentially looming.

Petit and Lincecum can eat up a lot of middle innings if Peavy goes out early. All-hands on deck for game 7 regardless.

Bumgarner says he can do an inning of relief if needed today, but I'm guessing Bochy would rather save him for Game 7 since that would be his bullpen throw day anyway.

I'm sure he'll pitch, the concern is how effective he will be. Peavy historically already sorta sucks in the playoffs so an injury on top of that can't be good.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Lincecum will be the savior.

 

[Fjordson]

Bochy can't be shy about bringing in Petit then.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

So Game 5 we had the pitcher with the best WS ERA starting and Game 6 we will have one with the second worst WS ERA. Great.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

I wonder if Butler will have any rust, he's had only 1 at-bat in the last 5 days counting travel days.

 

[JDHarbs]

I wonder if Butler will have any rust, he's had only 1 at-bat in the last 5 days counting travel days.

Possible, but doubtful. If anything he's likely just getting anxious to get out there and play. He hates sitting on the bench. If it were up to him, he'd be playing first base every night.

 

[zroid]

You could see his soul evaporate when he got struck out in that one at-bat

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Justin Smoak is a Blue Jay. Now all we need is for Jesus to be DFA so that Jack Z can officially have nothing to show for his tenure with the M's.

 

[kris.]

godddd i hope my professor lets us out as soon as possible tonight. he's a huge Royals fan and was at the '85 series yada yada yada pls kind and merciful professor pls

 

[JDHarbs]

I just want to see a Game 7.

 

[Tragicomedy]

I think mainly he was pissed at how far outside the called strike three was. That same location was called a ball twice on the very next batter. Not that it really mattered to the outcome.

 

[JDHarbs]

Let's do this!

 

[Rekwest]

Play Ball!

 

[lazybones18]

Good catch, Cain

 

[Get'sMad]

is that e-40 sitting behind home plate?

[Mulberry]

Good start, now I can breathe.

 

[Gouty]

Good D, good pitching.

Royals hungry

 

[JDHarbs]

WIZARD OF HOZ!
