Game 34 Ragnarok

I turned the radio off for a meeting, with the M’s win probability at 94%. Walking to lunch, I saw that they’d lost.
I talk up Brandon League’s sinking FB and he does this to me. 2 94-95 MPH pitches with good sink, 2 home runs, ball game.
Yay Felix, Saunders and Langerhans. Even Sweeney chipped in with a home run to CF. But a recap is pointless; all I want to do is mock the team (but it’s already been done, better, by Jeff) or rant about their failings (and I can’t top this).
It’s gorgeous out. Let’s all forget this kidney stone of a game ever happened, and try not to think about how much better both Texas and Oakland look right now. It’s May 13th, and the numbness is setting in.
Though, granted, that line would hardly be worth the $8 mil he’d have been paid here, that still almost qualifies him for batting title contention compared to what RoJo and Moore have been doing at the plate so far.
Marc,
What does Ichiro! have to do in order to get a mention in your game recap? You praise Felix, Saunders, Langerhans, and Sweeney but you leave out Ichiro! after he goes 3/4 with a 2-run Homer. This is classic taking Ichiro! for granted. The Mariners don’t deserve him. On a dozen other teams he would have had a couple of WS rings by now. He’s probably more depressed than the rest of us.
Wrong post sorry
