will it be aardsma coming up?
I don’t know if my blood pressure can take DA in the ninth of a close game with a good team.
at least the ump is calling it both ways
Wow.
Aardsma got a generous strike call there.
Aardsma with a good outing
@Seahopp & King.Dome, I looked at the pitchfx, it was there. //sigh//
Oh god, was the Jack Wilson shaking Mike Sweeney’s hand? If the M’s lose, I’m blaming them.
I live in NY and can’t figure out why the game is blacked out by mlbtv…a game in Tampa? total rip off…I’m listening to the radio feed.
Thank god, we needed that badly!
BLAMO! DA strikes him out. This was a well fought game!
Wow…Double-A with a 1-2-3 ninth…yowsah!!
Sweeneys back looks like it is starting to act up on him as he was running out after the last SO.
Okay, I’ll watch this game in replay.
@badperson_ny, if its blacked out and shouldn’t be, you can give them a call to try and sort it out. You may need to provide a CC to prove you live in NY, but they should be able to fix it. (Unless for some reason it is supposed to be blacked out, but that would be pretty lame)
Sweeney with back to back games with homers! New whipping boy needed.
What is Sweeney talking about????
Gives you an idea of just how much power George Steinbrenner has.
Oh, good. Mike Sweeney with the sappy Junior love in the post game interview.
I’m sure Sweeney is a super nice guy, but this lap-dog act he’s been pulling for Jr. is almost embarrassing…
That’s baseball for ya .. lose against the worst team one night …beat the best the next.
OMG, I just saw Sweeney’s slide.
That is AWESOME.
Please tell me someone else heard Sweeney’s post game interview. He was asked something like where his hitting came from today and he said, “From Junior.” Huh?
Now I feel guilty, since lalo’s fallen silent. Please chime in, lalo, I just can’t deal with the “this happened, therefore that player sucks” and “this happened, therefore the hitting coach is the best” rationales.
I had to change the channel.
Maybe its a strategy to make fans not feel bad when, if he keeps playing at this level for the rest of the series, he is the reason that Junior leaves.
Does anyone think he’s being sappy for a reason? Either Junior retiring soon or being released? If so, he very well should be sappy. Junior may be too old to produce, but he’s still a legend and paramount in making this franchise what it is today.
You mean the Rays are going to beat themselves tommorrow night?
If that’s what it takes for Sweeney to get motivated, I am not going to argue.
Would you complain if Jr were to retire and the Mariners dedicated a winning season to him?
I was thinking that, too. Can’t let anybody else within earshot of NYC enjoy their team when The Greatest Sports Franchise In The Universe is playing — even if they’re paying for an mlb.tv subscription to get it.
Well, there is miracle number one.
Wow, Adam Moore and Sweeney with homers. It must be raining frogs.
“Is that the kind of production you want from a DH?”
Yes, please.
To further that statement, yes you want your DH to actually PRODUCE!!.
I love a win as much as the next person but cmon, lets not get on the Sweeney for MVP bandwagon just yet.
Nobody is calling him MVP, but maybe some of the people who cry when Sweeney gets a hit will get off his back some.
