vs. RED SOX 5/05

[LA2]

Cook is cooked. Valentine is such a fool: he fell for the macho act and got burned--by Hardy, Markakis, What Cook's still in there?, Jones, Wieters, Haven't pulled him yet?, Davis, Betemit.... I know Bobby had to keep him in there b/c of how he handled the BP last night, but hey, I'm sure Buck wd have pulled him.

OK Reynolds... look for a first pitch changeup.

[weams]

I am sorry


That Cook is still pitching. I think if he had left, it would be a different story right now.

I am glad Cook stayed

You know, it's a shame to see ANY pitcher struggle, get injured, come back and play hard and still get knocked around. But I console myself with two things:

1. As in life, baseball isn't fair.
2. 14 consecutive losing seasons is enough to deaden anyone's nerves to feeling any sympathy for the opposition. Win, boys, win, is all you can think about. FINALLY, we aren't the ones in those shoes. Thank God.

I hear ya. Kick them repeatedly when they're down.

How did that nasty cut happen? That'll be stitches I'm sure.

He got spiked by Chris Davis while covering the plate after a passed ball.

In fairness to Valentine, his bullpen is absolutely torched after last night's game. I'm sure he wanted to squeeze as many innings as possible out of Cook. And Cook wasn't pitching badly until this inning. I don't think Valentine did anything wrong.

Hey people, it's still early in the game, but how about we give this guy some greenies for his post in the ongoing lineup thread before today's game ???

We honestly should win today's game 8-1 with Hammel going 7+. It's what good teams do - that lineup the red sox are throwing out there is crap and their bullpen is exhausted. It's baseball so anything could happen - but today's game shouldn't be close.

Covering home on a passed ball he did a rock star style powerslide when catching the ball...right as Davis was sliding in to home. He basically impaled himself, but since he was moving (as was Davis) it became a gash instead of puncture wound.

[Arthorn]

haha, 8-0

I still think he didn't get spiked.

3-RUN HOMER! IT'S COMPLETE: THE ORIOLE WAY IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Oriology]

Stick a fork in this one...Mark Reynolds!

[socalbirdfan]

Reynolds finding his swing?

[allquixotic]

I hear ya. Kick them repeatedly when they're down.

That's right, baby! 3R HR by Marky Mark!!!!

Cook the victim of SoSH karma? Interesting post early in their game thread:

For me, Luke Scott will always be an O.

That's all. F*** them in the shins.

Hi, my name is Mark Reynolds. You might remember me as somewhat of a power hitter.
