Won't get 20 tonight.

It's about to rain.
oh. COL. lucked out.
No, theres going to be at least two astros and probably both of them will start.
I guess since those two teams don't have a good 1st baseball then Berkman will start. I just wondering if Chipper will start since everybody in New York hates Chipper and they have their own 3B that they want in.
 
People have found a new place to advertise at basball games. "Brewers.com" is written in the dirt on the back side of the mound.

edit: ok now its gone, I wondered how long it would last.
 
THE HOME RUNS BY BALTIMORE'S KEVIN MILLAR AND RAMON HERNANDEZ IN THE SECOND INNING WERE HIT BACK-TO-BACK.
THE HOME RUNS BY NEW YORK'S BOBBY ABREU AND ALEX RODRIGUEZ IN THE FOURTH INNING WERE HIT BACK-TO-BACK
NEW YORK PITCHER IAN KENNEDY LEFT THE GAME IN THE BOTTOM OF THE FOURTH INNING DUE TO A STRAINED RIGHT LEG.
THE HOME RUNS BY BALTIMORE'S LUKE SCOTT AND KEVIN MILLAR IN THE FIFTH INNING WERE HIT BACK-TO-BACK.
 
man a guy at work called it but that no hitter by lester and the sweep by the Sawx has turned the Royals into the... uh, Royals :( season over
 
Time to get the sweep with Big Z tommorrow.

I can't believe how differently the cubs play at home than on the road. They need to catch some of that fire on the road.
 
Hudson is staying in the game? Why?

nm..whew got a out. But damn, Hudson should have been taken out earlier.

Guys are lucky no one on the Doyers can hit for shit with RISP.

Kuroda is 2-4 even though he has given up 3 runs or less in 10 of his 15 starts. =(

Those Doyers are a shitty bunch.

Yes they are, But at least almost all of the shitty vets that haven't done shit are injured. Furcal is about the only vet worth a damn on this team, I have no issues watching the rooks struggle out there. Glad to see that soft tossing wuss Bennett is gone somewhere and Ardoin did a good job.
 
Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuckity Fuck Fuck.

Another 1 run loss for the Braves. This team is absolutely pathetic on the road.

How about instead of swinging at the first pitch every at bat, take a few. You know, work the count? I wonder why you were scoring alot of runs at home....oh you had patient at-bats. SHOCKING!

And Tex, stop grounding into fucking DPs. Damn, its almost June, start earning your money. Also Fuck you Franceuor, stop trying to hit a home run to left field every at -bat. I guess Chipper was right, "Lose a Andruw, gain a Andruw".

And WTF were you thinking Bobby? Take Hudson out of the game! If you stop using your good relievers in blowouts then we would have them for close games.

Damn this team sucks on the road. Absolutely horrible.
 
Great W,Chacon pitches great again and <3 Pence... 5 for 5 :o
 
So I was over on SoSH and I came across this.

According to Wiki...
Aside from being a baseball player, Batista is known for his love of poetry and philosophy, and he has written a book of poetry in Spanish titled Sentimientos en Blanco y Negro ("Feelings in Black and White"). Batista also recently published The Avenger of Blood, a thriller about a serial killer. The novel was released on January 25 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic and on February 10 in San Juan Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico, where it has had great success in very few months.
WTF? Miguel Batista is a writer?

Also, the Red Sox are fucking terrible on the road.
 
Going to a Trenton Thunder game tomorrow.

Going to get myself a Shelley Duncan bobblehead for free!*

I'll sell it to any Yankees fan for $30

Besides Austin Jackson, what prospect should I be looking for?
 
Those may have been the weirdest ejections I've ever seen in a baseball game. The game was going along and all of a sudden Lugo was thrown out. Then Francona was trying to figure out why and he was thrown out.

Edit - So Lugo was arguing balls and strikes as the shortstop in the field. So that one was figured out, if also the first time I've ever seen that happen. I'm still confused what Francona said to get thrown.
 
Yep. Girardi should probably get a whipping after this game. :(

Left Kennedy in....left Ohlendorf in....put in Hawkins...
