He'd only given up one run before Giese allowed it to score. :(

Still...not awful.
Joba, work on that curve and change. You will need it so people don't assume fastball/slider.
 
Hey the White Sox got two runs in the first, they must have responded to Ozzie's rant about the offen-oh wait it was a 2 run homer from Quentin
 
Extra innings is getting on my nerves...Quinton hits the ball and I get a "tuning channel" screen.

fuck you comcast

oh it was a HR...how nice to miss!
 
I love all these rookie pitchers coming into start for us:

here's the template:

nibble
nibble
nibble

*shit gotta throw a strike*

fastball down the middle

double

nibble
nibble
strike
nibble

*shit 3-1 count*

fastball down the middle

homerun


These guys need to stop being vaginas.

One day Ryan is going to understand that standing so far away in an open stance is killing him.

fuck

I love Ryan Howard. I really do. He's a great player, and a great guy. But, from what I've seen these last two years, he is the black Adam Dunn.
 
He's becoming that...Not even rollins is getting through to him...


Heres griffey!! we gave him a standing ovation
 
This has to be the most frustrating team to watch. How do you get so many base runners and not score any runs damn it.

Bases loaded, 1 out. Pretty much guarantees a GIDP.

YES A BB.

I wasn't watching the game, so why was Chamberlin taken out so early? It says he only threw 61 pitches

All the Blue Jays hitters were taking him to 3-2 and he had walked a ton of people, he was only on a like 65 pitch count.

Hahaha oh boy somehow I missed that looking at his line. Man, whatever happened to KENNEDY HUGHES CHAMBERLIN FUTURE, it seems that train has been derailed hardcore.
 
Well I'll cop to it: I was apparently wrong about the Blue Jays offense. They've flipped some kind of switch lately. I was expecting this game to be 0-0 until the 9th with Halladay and the Blue Jay offense. At this rate I could see the best 3 teams in the AL all coming from the East and one of them cursing some crappy team in the Central. Maybe all 4 of the best if the Yankees ever get a starting pitcher that works.

Onto the Sox, its been two whole outings where Craig Hansen has looked REALLY good. Its too early to get excited, but I'm getting excited to get excited.

Edited for grammarz.
 
I have a feeling Pedro's going to get lit up tonight. Pitching in SF, in chilly weather, I don't even want to think about it.

They couldn't agree on who should be the one to win all of those Cy Youngs, so they decided it would be best if they all sucked.

Yea but you guys are up against Barry Zito, so regardless of how much Pedro gives up you should still win

Word dude, it's like bizarro world! Redsox stealing bases, Craig Hansen not sucking dick...very strange.
 
Last time, Doyers-Age I got 2 more tixs to tomorrows Rookies game. If anyone's still interested pm me. They're pretty good seats and its free.

So far I'm going and possibly 2 more gaffers.
 
Holy Shit, we won a 1 run game.

Also, Soriano actually looked like his old self, he was throwing 95-96 not 91.
 
I'm betting the 3rd inning will be Fat Pennys downfall inning. He will probably lose track of what he is doing as he starts craving the cheeseburger he keeps in his locker. =(
 
In a brief diversion from the PoliGaf thread I just wanted to say God damn Arizona! It would be nice if you didn't suck so bad on the road. :(
 
Krukow's sarcasm is freakin hilarious. I love Harry(and sometimes Sarge) but these guys are the best combo i've heard.
 
Wow, Fat Penny is finding new ways to suck. A balk and a shallow out to noodle arm who couldn't gun down a toddler crawling from 3rd to home.
