I sat next to him one time at a baseball game. He is nuts.
But he does know how to go after an inexperienced hitter (AJ).

Welcome back, JJ, we missed you. Too bad Felix didn’t get the win, though. I’m with you, Lauren.

Can someone tell me how he looked on the radar gun with all the pitches he threw?

204 – Yeah, because veteran hitters never have trouble against Putz…
Really surprised that Trembley let Guthrie stay out there. Walker would have been a good matchup against Ibanez, and Sarfate would have been a good matchup against Vidro.
Nice to be on the right side of managerial competence…

DizzleChizzle: Upper 90’s with his fastball that he put them away with up in the zone. Breaking ball nasty. Huff hit a good pitch that was outside for the double. He looked pretty amazing
JJ even said as much (although I think Lowe’s gonna have some sort of pie comin’)

boy, real life interrupts and you miss the go ahead runs, JJ’s return and some really stupid posts apparently worthy of rapid banishment.

I missed Felix Day cause I was at the Rockies Phils game so I am about to watch the magic on MLB.TV archives. That Rockies game was pretty crazy, a female streaker(shirt off only), almost a cat fight between a grandma and a drunk Coors Light sponsor girl, and I had to watch Corpas ruin the Rockies and my fantasy team’s day. Very Eventful. I need some King Felix in my life right now…

Cliff really came through tonight.
He did look rather satisfied, standing on first base. “Take that, Frank Thomas!”
He did what he had to do, get a base hit. I guess that’s what makes him a professional.

Do you think we could get Red to swap out the giant Beltre head for a giant Frank Thomas head for a few games? To spur on Cliff…

HamNasty, I am envious. I pulled an allnighter to start a research paper due on monday…and had work all day yesterday, went to library, went to class at 8, then work, then class, then class, and now home to find out the Mariners won (YAY) and Obama lost (boo). Its been an up and down 48 hours. A female streaker, a drunk wannabe model fighting an old lady, and some poor pitching would have been nice.
And I bet you got beer. And it was cold. At least for a few minutes.

Why do I listen to the post game shows?
They were talking about Frank Thomas, pointing out that Frank’s best years are behind him, that he gets on base a lot but is a base clogger because he’s slow, and that driving the ball in SafeCo is hard. Then they go on to praise Vidro.
There was the humorous moment with Mark Lowe giving J.J. the shaving cream pie. He didn’t just pie him, he made sure to get in mic range to say “Welcome back Big Guy!” in a really nasally mocking voice.

So HamNasty, the question becomes… was the streaker pretty?

OMG!! What in the hell is wrong with you!? Do you want the Mariners to figure out that left-handed power is worth more to them than 75% of the teams in the AL?

The Vidro turnaround has begun.
And go Hillary!

Multiple delusions. =)
Seriously though. I’m happy the M’s won, I don’t care who gets the hit. Those of us who think Vidro is finished as an everyday player don’t root for him to fail to prove our collective point. No one cheered louded than me when Vidro had that hit last night.
I sat next to him one time at a baseball game. He is nuts.
hahahaha! Red got mentioned on TV!
Red just got mentioned on the radio.
Great shot of Red and mention by Sims just now. How awesome.
195 –
Is this true even in the 8th inning? I hate sac bunts too but I thought this is one situation where it is called for.

Oh boy…
JJ looks rusty, not surprisingly.
But he does know how to go after an inexperienced hitter (AJ).
He’s locked in now.

Any questions?
Cliff really came through tonight.
And is it my imagination, or is Huff one of those weird guys who always hits the M’s well?
Huff is a left-handed hitter with a bit of power. Safeco treats guys like that very well, making them “Mariner Killers” (c.f. Anderson, Garret).
Mark Lowe hid in JJ’s locker behind some coats to pie him in the face, that was nice.

Multiple delusions. Try it sometime.
Sounds like a terrible teen movie
