Okay so let me get this straight... I bought this on your recommendation. Now I go t watch Phils-Marlins, and I'm blacked out? I'm 994 miles away and I'm blacked out? I know I'm new to this but WTF?
You're in the Marlins' market. Just watch the game on FSN.
 
Just got finished watching the Archived game of the Braves/Reds.

Last 20 road games decided by 1 run. The Braves record....0-20.....
What really hurts is that it was Soriano who blew the save... him coming back was supposed to shore up the 'pen. I think this will be another year of the Braves just being fucking cursed with weird shit like our record in one run games and road woes.

Yeah I have that feeling too, especially considering this 1 run bullshit has been going on since last season. We are still only 3 gms back though, so maybe we can get this season back on track.

I thought he looked pretty good today, though. I mean, he just plain out-muscled a few batters.

God damn you Tallet. Oh well, I didn't think we would win against Lackey.
Pretty solid game on both sides.
Though the fact we had ~10 more hits and only 1 more run... I dunno about that.

3 walk-offs this week though, pretty awesome.

Torii is doing about what I expected.

Offense has been sputtering though. DAMN YOU JEFF-PAUL. DAMN YOUUUUUUUUU.

Yea... I'm still disappointed at how lolworthy the Anglols offense is. But then again, I also expected Hunter to be the linchpin for my fantasy team.

Kidding... and Junior Viceroy finally put up a good performance today. ._.

I have rosy optimism now that HK-47 is back. Bitch ass meatbags ain't got shit on HK-47.
He's looking pretty damn awesome since coming back. Hopefully this is the start down a good road...
 
Scott Patterson called up. People still calling on Britton to pitch. News reports say Bruney might be back before the season's end.
 
Ichiro Suzuki admitted that extended exposure to the '08 Mariners will lead to drunken shenanigans. "If I was not in this situation and I was objectively watching in the past week, I would probably be drinking a lot of beers and booing," Ichiro said through his interpreter. "Usually I enjoy Japanese beer, but given the situation, if I was objectively watching the game, I wouldn't care if it was Japanese beer, American beer or beer from Papua New Guinea."
:lol :lol
 
"We're a good offensive team," Cooper said. "We just got shut down. This is the third day in a row. I'm sure sooner or later we're going to get it cranked up again."

Even slugger Lance Berkman, one of the hottest hitters in baseball this season, resorted to dropping a bunt single in the eighth inning, with the Astros down by four. It was only the second bunt single of his career and first since 2002.

"That's a good play," Cooper said of Berkman's decision to bunt with the third baseman playing him deep. "That's a baseball player's play. It's a nice job. We need baserunners. If you hit a ball out of a ballpark, I call them rally-killers when you get down like that. We need to keep a rally going, and that was a nice play to me."

i dont know what to say..

also fuck the marlins
 
Manny hits 501... he's 2-3, 3 RBIs, double, and a 2 run homer. This slump is over, he was definitely pressing up there. He's been hittin the ball so damn hard. He went 1-4 last night, but 3 of those 4 were launched.
