[lovetoaster]

Let's try not to be as sloppy tonight!

[lovetoaster]

....because if we give up 10+ runs again, there is a good chance I will be pretty sloppy by the end of the game :D

[lovetoaster]

Roberts walks to lead off...and I feel like I am talking to myself.

[lovetoaster]

Double for Markakis...second and third...nice start guys!

[mrbig1]

35th double for Nick this year.

[El Gordo]

35th double for Nick this year.

That should officially make Nick a .300, .400, .500 guy.:clap3:

[lovetoaster]

RBI single by Melvin.

[mrbig1]

1-0 birds.:clap3:

[lovetoaster]

Come on Huff...smoke one.

EDIT: Well, he did but it was caught. But he got an RBI on a sac fly.

[hammer310]

How do you get to be the double bubble scratch off contestant? With Roberts and Markakis your raking in alot of money.

Nice start guys, keep it going!

[ledzepp8]

Man Huff Daddy just crushed that ball to deep center to sacrifice Nick home.

I wonder if Mora could have tagged up also?:scratchchinhmm:

[mrbig1]

77th RBI for Huff daddy.

[Saintbird]

The birds are back in buisness!

[Saintbird]

Lets go Milllllllllllar!

[zff4]

we shouldn't have to much of a problem with Sowers

[lovetoaster]

Millar strikes out, but I will take two runs in the top of the first.

Now come on Olson! Come out strong here!

[mrbig1]

Which Olson are we getting tonight?

[Saintbird]

Millar strikes out, but I will take two runs in the top of the first.

Now come on Olson! Come out strong here!

Says the guy who talks to himself, Hehe.:D

[hammer310]

Lets go Olson, we need you today.

[Saintbird]

Yikes! First pitch to Francisco was right down the middle.

[lovetoaster]

Says the guy who talks to himself, Hehe.:D

The Orioles cause me to do that sometimes. I was perfectly normal until 7:05. :)

[Keith SIO]

Ramon, move your body, jeez. Even if it wasn't catchable show some freaking effort.

[Sanfran327]

I didn't know Gumby was a professional catcher.

After all of that fuss, Olson with the K. Good job, boy.

[Saintbird]

(Cringe):cussing:

[lovetoaster]

There we go....got Francisco looking!

[lovetoaster]

Good job, boy.

That just sounds odd.

[Saintbird]

The Orioles cause me to do that sometimes. I was perfectly normal until 7:05. :)

Then you spotted the Miller Light.:D I kid I kid.:D:D;)

[lovetoaster]

Then you spotted the Miller Light.:D I kid I kid.:D:D;)

If I was actually at home, I would have spotted it long ago. But I am here at "work" late.

[lovetoaster]

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh Ramon!

[Keith SIO]

A good arm would have had him out.

[mrbig1]

How many runs do we have to score tonight?

[snatch311]

he wasnt safe. tag was on him, and he missed the bag.

Edit:
NM, Indians broadcast fooled me.

[lovetoaster]

How many runs do we have to score tonight?

Hopefully not in the teens.

But it looks like it could be another one of those nights.

[Keith SIO]

he wasnt safe. tag was on him, and he missed the bag.

either way, past ball and a bad throw to the plate don't help. Luck was stacked against us.

[snatch311]

Oh, and Markakis would've gunned him down.

[El Gordo]

he wasnt safe. tag was on him, and he missed the bag.
Nope replay showed he got the plate with his back foot. Bad throw by Montanez.

[Keith SIO]

God please throw it to the catcher next time kid...

[lovetoaster]

Ramonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

Edit: is it Montanez or Ramon? I am listening to Angel and Manfra and they are putting it on Ramon.

[Sanfran327]

Ramon is so fat and inept. I want Quiroz in there before the end of the inning.

[Mackus]

That second play-at-the-plate, while not a good throw by Montanez, should've been caught and tag applied by Hernandez. That one's on him.

[snatch311]

Not much of an arm.

[Keith SIO]

How are two terrible throws and a horrible pitch Ramon's fault right now???

Shoulda been out of this a while ago with at least a good throw to the plate.

[vab]

Olson is completely pitiful. Send him out and get anybody from the minors up here.

[mrbig1]

Here we go again.

[lovetoaster]

Well, Montanez got the E, so maybe it was his fault.

[rooter]

Jesus christ.

[snatch311]

One good defensive play and the inning is over.

[blueberryale77]

Oh, and Markakis would've gunned him down.

That's why Markakis doesn't play left field. ;)

But seriously, I suspect Luke Scott or any other very average-throwing left fielder could have nailed him too.

[Keith SIO]

This game is breaking my heart!

[Mackus]

Anybody know the last time a team gave up 4 runs in the 1st inning in 3 straight games?

[FollyFollyToo]

Welcome to batting practice.

[lovetoaster]

How are two terrible throws and a horrible pitch Ramon's fault right now???

Shoulda been out of this a while ago with at least a good throw to the plate.

I was just referring to the radio...they were making it sound like both plays at the plate were more Ramon's fault. :noidea:

[mrbig1]

Let's try not to be as sloppy tonight!

They didn't hear you.

[Saintbird]

Arghh! At least we know our future doesn't live in the present... or... wait, I mean, at least our present doesn't live in the future...wait.

[Jagwar]

How many runs do we have to score tonight?

Im going to say 94

[lovetoaster]

Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.

[snatch311]

At least he's keeping the ball low in the zone???

[Keith SIO]

I was just referring to the radio...they were making it sound like both plays at the plate were more Ramon's fault. :noidea:

A faster catcher would have had both outs, but both throws were not good at all.

[mrbig1]

Jesus christ.

Is he ready in the bullpen?

[lovetoaster]

They didn't hear you.

My hopes for a crisp evening of baseball = Fail.

[Jagwar]

Anybody know the last time a team gave up 4 runs in the 1st inning in 3 straight games?

I think it was when I was playing Tecmo baseball against my brother

[Hank Scorpio]

Every night it's the same guys.

Hernandez, Mora or Payton.

[lovetoaster]

Is he ready in the bullpen?

Ha! Very nice.

[blueberryale77]

Ramonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

Edit: is it Montanez or Ramon? I am listening to Angel and Manfra and they are putting it on Ramon.

Both. The error goes to the thrower unless it's right on the money and clearly gets dropped, but Hernandez had a chance to prevent that error if he played it perfectly.

[Saintbird]

Im going to say 94

Really? I was thinking more on the lines of 95.

[lovetoaster]

Both. The error goes to the thrower unless it's right on the money and clearly gets dropped, but Hernandez had a chance to prevent that error if he played it perfectly.

So just good ol' overall ineptitude? :)

[Mackus]

Both. The error goes to the thrower unless it's right on the money and clearly gets dropped, but Hernandez had a chance to prevent that error if he played it perfectly.He didn't need to play it perfectly. It was a clean hop, it was the second hop, but clean nonetheless. He had plenty of time to catch it and then apply the tag, didn't even need to be a "catch and tag" all in one motion.

Poor throw by Montanez, but it was still good enough to get the job done if Ramon does his.

[ledzepp8]

Well, Montanez got the E, so maybe it was his fault.

That was ridiculous that Montanez got an error on that. It wasn't the best throw in the world but it wasn't the worst either. It was at least on target...the catcher has to keep that in front of him.

[lovetoaster]

Really? I was thinking more on the lines of 95.

That might be some kind of record.

[Keith SIO]

The bad thing is, Olson didn't look too bad until the inning was prolonged.

[mrbig1]

Here comes 3 up and 3 down.

[lovetoaster]

Well, hopefully it is another one of those nights that pads my fantasy baseball stats since I have Rooberts, Markakis and Huff.

:awesome:

[Jagwar]

Hey it could be worse. We could be the Rangers, and playing at Fenway tonight :eek:

[Saintbird]

Is he ready in the bullpen?

Yah, it could be the sequel. Picture this... Jesus in the infield. Pretty good huh? I mean it's not like the Angels need the Angels anymore.

[lovetoaster]

The bad thing is, Olson didn't look too bad until the inning was prolonged.

Yep, and now I fear his confidence is shot.

[Sanfran327]

Is he ready in the bullpen?

I heard he can't hit a curveball... hopefully he can throw a good one.

[Mackus]

That was ridiculous that Montanez got an error on that. It wasn't the best throw in the world but it wasn't the worst either. It was at least on target...the catcher has to keep that in front of him.If you bounce a throw and it leads to runners taking extra bases, both the case on that throw, you get the error. Even if it was a clean bounce that should've been fielded.

[lovetoaster]

Yah, it could be the sequel. Picture this... Jesus in the infield. pretty good huh? I mean it's not like the Angels need the Angels anymore.

Is Tony Danza available?

[Sanfran327]

Is Tony Danza available?

He's the boss!

[lovetoaster]

I heard he can't hit a curveball... hopefully he can throw a good one.

I am going to have that scene from Major League in my head for the rest of the evening.

"Jesus...he is good, but he no help with curveball."

[Saintbird]

Is Tony Danza available?

Yup, just booked him.:D

[lovetoaster]

Here comes 3 up and 3 down.

Did you call Cleo from the Psychic Friends Network?

:D

[Sanfran327]

I am going to have that scene from Major League in my head for the rest of the evening.

"Jesus...he is good, but he no help with curveball."

Try not to start a holy war.

[lovetoaster]

Yup, just booked him.:D

I think we need to start casting. Can I be the "rough, but with a heart of gold" manager, like in every baseball movie?

[Keith SIO]

"let's just play catch"

[Saintbird]

Yup, just booked him.:D
Yea! 400 for me and Lovetoaster is one away from 1,000.

[lovetoaster]

Up your butt, Jobu.

[waroriole]

Does anyone know what "A Tony Danza" is.

[Keith SIO]

Double play time? :scratchchinhmm:

[Saintbird]

If you know how to spit seeds and look like there's not another care in the world, you're hired.:D

[mrbig1]

Boston has scored 10 runs in the first inning with Ortiz hitting 2 three run nomers in that inning. Manny who?

[Sanfran327]

I think we need to start casting. Can I be the "rough, but with a heart of gold" manager, like in every baseball movie?

Oh, you gotta get Judith Light now.

[Keith SIO]

how bout this 0-2 count? Freezin him up.

[lovetoaster]

Does anyone know what "A Tony Danza" is.

Yep, this guy does.

[Keith SIO]

Really great strike out.

[Saintbird]

Boston has scored 10 runs in the first inning with Ortiz hitting 2 three run nomers in that inning. Manny who?

Haha... I hate them.

[Keith SIO]

yikes...n olson was doing so well.

One more curve ball and this inning will be over though.

[Jagwar]

yikes... that error should be on the ballboy

[lovetoaster]

yikes...n olson was doing so well.

One more curve ball and this inning will be over though.

Well...nice prediction!

[Keith SIO]

6 strikes in a row... :eek:

Olson's Curve ball looks nasty.

[lovetoaster]

yikes... that error should be on the ballboy

Would that be an E10?

[mrbig1]

Now it's our turn.

[Sanfran327]

Is it safe to say that the only time Bob Costas is acceptable is during the Olympics?

[Saintbird]

Would that be an E10?

E11, everyone knows the crowd is the tenth man!:D

[Keith SIO]

Is it safe to say that the only time Bob Costas is acceptable is during the Olympics?

Yes it is.

[mrbig1]

Take him downtown Nick.

[Sanfran327]

nicknicknicknicknicknick crap

[lovetoaster]

E11, everyone knows the crowd is the tenth man!:D

Well played. :wedge:

[lovetoaster]

I know I am stating the obvious right now, but Mora is killing the ball right now.

[waroriole]

Yep, this guy does.

Not something you can share on here, but that is funny.

[Sanfran327]

I'm going to go ahead and ask it in the baseball thread: is Coach K really the guy we want leading the US Basketball team? He's great and all, but I don't know if his style of play (not including a big man - ever) is good for international ball. Do we lose at all in 2008??

[lovetoaster]

Not something you can share on here, but that is funny.

Yeah, I don't there is any acceptable way to describe it on here.

[Keith SIO]

What is with Markakis and Huff hitting into DPs?

[lovetoaster]

Fudge. I thought Huff was going to come through there. What has he done recently?


:D

I think he's the perfect guy to lead the U.S. team. The apparent dedication to this team as compared to previous years is night and day. I hate Duke, but Coach K is probably the best guy to coach these guys.

Not to derail the thread, but...

I hate Kryzyzsyxzyzski, but I agree. There is a different feeling about this team then there has been in a while. I wish there were another perimeter shooter though.

[Sanfran327]

Good point. I just hope that the players respond to him and have the same respect for him that as his players at Duke. But you're right... dedication has been lacking for Team USA lately.

[Keith SIO]

10 pitch inning. not bad.

[Jagwar]

Fudge. I thought Huff was going to come through there. What has he done recently?


:D

Heck, he almost hit the ball THROUGH Sizemore in his first AB. ;)

[lovetoaster]

10 pitch inning. not bad.

He certainly has rebounded quite nicely. I will admit, I had my doubts.

[lovetoaster]

Heck, he almost hit the ball THROUGH Sizemore in his first AB. ;)

I bet that would have been a top play on Sportscenter.

[waroriole]

10 pitch inning. not bad.

Olson seems like the most insecure pitcher. It's like he's waiting for something bad to happen when he's out there. Then, once it does or he realizes he's going to pitch good his confidence comes back.

[waroriole]

I bet that would have been a top play on Sportscenter.

Not tonight, Ortiz hit two HR's in the same inning.:D

[Jagwar]

Not to derail the thread, but...

I hate Kryzyzsyxzyzski, but I agree. There is a different feeling about this team then there has been in a while. I wish there were another perimeter shooter though.

Heck, I'm surprised Coach K didn't lobby for Reddick :eek:

[Jagwar]

I bet that would have been a top play on Sportscenter.

Nah... ESPN hates us ;)

[lovetoaster]

Nah... ESPN hates us ;)

I think Buster Olney just said on ESPN News that if Jeter would have hit that ball, it would have gone through Sizemore, then the wall, then sold itself to charity.

[Keith SIO]

LM does not have an arm...

[Keith SIO]

:mad: :mad: :mad:

[blueberryale77]

LM does not have an arm...

He sure doesn't. I'm not sure he could beat Cintron in a throwing contest. Roberts could've run back to the clubhouse, taken a whiz and gotten back out to his position by the time that throw got to 2B.

[hammer310]

2 errors on 1 play, man Mora.

He has had a rough couple games.

Give him an off day tomorrow.

[lovetoaster]

I am speechless...two errors on Melvin.

We just can't keep doing this.

[GeorgeD]

It's all because you meanies said bad things about him.:eektf:

Payton's hit was solid.

Yes, I agree. Jones getting hurt was like a punch in the stomach. He was really playing well and getting better every day.

Ramon tried to drop the ball though :noidea:

[El Gordo]

Pinch hitting for Castro? I don't like this unless Fahey is hiding in the dugout and we just haven't noticed because he's hiding behind somebody's bat. I'm calling it right now, we come back to go ahead by one or two, but lose on a Cintron error.

Great call by our manager. It's a tough call to use your best bench bullet, but it was the right call. LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKE!

Just kidding.

[blueberryale77]

WTF was Samuel doing? He's just flat out incompetent as a 3B coach, the Indians weren't even going to contest Scott's run. The only possible excuse for not sending him home is if he can't run because of his achilles tendon and if that's the case why the heck didn't Cintron run for him since he's going to have to come in and play SS anyway?

[JTrea81]

The only thing about taking Castro out, is that Cintron comes in...

It's going to have to be either a strike em out/throw em out, the line drive variety, a 5-4-3, or a ball right up the middle that Roberts can turn by himself.

Hmm, Cintron, Mora... I'm not liking our chances.:(

[ChrisAF79]

I just hate the way we've been giving away wins with our pitching and defense lately.

Errors, walks, HBP's, mental blunders, etc...

I think I'm going to be sick.

Didn't you say that last night?

And the night before last, too?

[Saintbird]

But that will work!

I think he should buy a life time of bags.

??????????????????????

[Hank Scorpio]

How many errors do we have tonight?

How many wild pitches? How many hit batters?

This just isn't a good team, kiddies.

[ChrisAF79]

If only home plate were 10 feet further back...

[mrbig1]

Ball game.:cussing:

[Hank Scorpio]

??????????????????????

Oh, I literally thought I saw you say "I think I'm going to be sick" in the game thread last night.

Maybe you didn't my bad.

So, what to do with Montanez?

The thing that annoys me most is that Trembley STRESSES the very aspects of the game that we're so damn terrible at. It's so frustrating to watch this crap at times.

Very, very sloppy baseball.

The difference between this and teams of the last few years though is that this one does not give up.

I can deal with not being very good, I can not stand for simply quitting.

You're kidding right, I think Masn is pulling our legs, at least I hope.

[mrbig1]

Fcab is coming in.

[Saintbird]

Fcab is coming in.

I was hoping you were joking.

[ChrisAF79]

I guess it could be worse. Imagine how Boston fans feels tonight after scoring TEN runs in the 1st inning only to now be losing now in the 7th...

I feel their pain.

And that is supposed to be a surprise? ;)

I love it.

Geez. If Shoppach weren't so nimble that would've been another HBP.
