Vargas vs Moseley, 7:10 pm.
Dustin Ackley is not in the line-up tonight due to bruised ribs, but apparently he’ll be back in the line-up tomorrow. Still, that makes tonight’s game about 99% less interesting.
Ichiro, RF
Ryan, SS
Kennedy, 2B
Smoak, 1B
Cust, DH

Ryan could have put a little more on that, and he knew it.
I love Ryan so much. He gets pissed when he doesn’t perform perfectly.
Or, for the fifties, Cust could use Patsy Kline’s “Walkin’ after Midnight”.
Now we need to cover the 70s and the 90s…
RE: Cust-
I REALLY wanna see a “throwback” Jack Cust, sitting in the dugout in one of those old school, interwoven polyester/aluminum frame lawnchairs, next to an old green, metal Coleman cooler, poppin’ cold ones between innings (REAL aluminum pull tabs on the cans, that come all the way off!)… Straight out of a 1980’s softball tournament.
83 MPH high and inside.
Change up? Didn’t really have any apparent movement. Does Vargas have a slider?
Bad Religion’s “A Walk” for the 90’s.
90’s walk like an egyptian
70’s walk of life
I think that Fats Domino – “I’m Walkin'” would be better for Mr. Cust…
Cust’s ’60s song could also be, “Walk Don’t Run” by local faves The Ventures (first surf song to ever crack the Top 40).
You kow the guy who invented the pop top on beer and pop cans lived in Medina until he was killed in a plane crash about 10 years ago? Just a little trivia to make you a bit smarter.
hehehehe I am loving all of these ideas…
Also, Vargas is a stud.
MrZ – I was also thinking that Walk Away Renee would work too…
It would be GREAT to see him doing the whole hand thing on his way to first…
Mr Z’s comment reminded me of that, so not out in LF as it looks at a glance. I posted it and it seemed really out in LF. LOL
Auggey-
This might be my favorite bit of random out-of-the-blue trivia ever dropped on me in my lifetime. *laugh*
Somehow Ichiro got a uniform that fits him perfectly.
I’m pretty sure “Walk Like an Egyptian” was from the 80’s.
Could Cust wear the gold makeup and have the stone next to his eye? Maybe the pitcher would be laughing so hard and never be able to throw a strike.
We talk about Pineda. A lot!
Was thinking the same thing.
In fact, it was 1986.
I have mentioned that I am in love with Brenden Ryan, right?
Mr Z I might be able to top it. His second invention made him even more money. He invented the 1st cornea transplant. He sold it to Dow for millions and stock. From a pop top to a cornea transplant. When I worked construction (I was an ironworker/welder) I worked at his house 3 days tying up the rebar for retainig walls around his house on the water next to Jack Sikma. OH and he was a jack ass.
Tip of the hat to Denorfio for giving the bat to the fan.
Walking on the Moon by The Police came out in 1979
@IPL_Baseball: Helsin Martinez agrees to terms with the Seattle #Mariners for 2 million!
I heard he has ridiculous power, we´ll see!
That was a classy move by Denorfio – AND a great jump by Ryan!
After that robbery, he probably doesn’t want the bat any more. But, yeah, good for him giving it back.
Not sure where that 0-1 pitch was.
So close.
Ryan is pissed that he didn’t make two incredible catches in one inning.
How about “Jumping Jack Flash?” as a theme for Cust?
DAMN VARGAS YOU SCARY
When I googled Walk like an Egyptian there was a rerelease or something like that in 1990.
I’ll take being pissed about that over making two boneheaded errors any day of the week!
I like the high school football horn at the end of the win.
Vargas looked really good tonight, pitch placement is so important. Not the fastest, not the best stuff, but the ball in the right place both sides of the plate.
Hey I just realized RoJo wasn’t catching for our hated rivals.
Cust’s walk up music must now be the Oompa Loompa song <_<
Nice job, Jason! I think that the theme of the game for Mr. Vargas was “Gettin Jiggy Wit’ It!”
IBU’s got it oomps loomps loopity doo
Me thinks that the “Baby Elephant Walk” is more like it!
LOVED the oompa loompa reference by him there.
Seems like someone would mention to him that Babe Ruth wore a loose uniform. And that Babe Ruth was fat. And that he’s a little chunky. And that Babe Ruth hit home runs. And that he used to hit home runs. And maybe then he’ll get it.
Maybe if we trade all 5 of our pitchers Peguero Figgy and Carp for their 5 a LF a 3rd bm a C and a DH would that work? Maybe we throw in walking man too.
Hey we could have a big party in the woods were women are topless and call it walking man. In place of running man, and Cust could be the star attraction.
Hey, ‘Hatari’ is a fun movie!
In all honesty by next year, how good could Vargas be? he keeps getting better! 3 Shutouts this half of a year!!
We were first Row just behind first base and noticed the left ear medical bandage Kennedy had what appeared to be a cut bandage inside his left ear. Good guy gave autographs to the kids just before game time. Solid pro.
Smoak looked pretty good at the plate but man does he have some wheel problems? I’ve got to believe he’s got a problem with a knee? Ludwick made a nice catch off Peggy tonight. If we could get him cheap he’d be a nice addition. Cheap is pick up his salary and a B prospect.
You want a walk up 90’s song for Cust? How about Walking Contradiction by Green Day? Fits him perfectly.
