vs. BLUE JAYS 9/04

[Jonesy10]

Agreed, the number four hitter should be able to get that runner in. too many fouled off pitches and too many big swings. It's not the end of the world and the last pitch was a nice changeup under the hands, but you expect your number four hitter against a guy like Vill to get that runner in with one out.

Yep exactly.

[UMDTerrapins]

It's moving.......

edit.....nope, not so much.

[OFFNY]

How long does it take to close the dome? More than thirty minutes?

It usually took between 30 and 45 minutes to close Exhibition Stadium in Toronto when the Blue Jays played there. That's what they said on WPIX when I used to watch them play the Yankees back then.

I don't know about this one.

Toronto broadcast says they don't have any tarp to put on the field. Ugh I'm so worried about injuries. That turf is bad enough dry.

I feel for Girardi, if I looked like a monkey and people were starting to put it together that I wasn't that good of a manager I'd be pissed too.

Good job getting 1 in, but Adam really needs to improve in those situations, not just for this particular game, but more so for games the rest of the season.

This is his line with RISP. .288 .331 .506 .838 OPS. I'd say he's doing okay.

Jones should not be a #4 hitter any more than Hardy should be a #2.

He's a pretty bad manager. I mean everyone could see Huhges was gassed after giving up 2 hits and a walk. And then you let him stay in there for Reynolds who hit a HR off him earlier. Bad, bad decision. Though I have no problem with it

.288 .331 .506 .838 OPS. It's not Babe Ruth, but your hyperbole is well stated.

What in the world are these people chanting?

[UMDTerrapins]

That pitch was unfair.

[crissfan172]

Looks like he threw a couple of curves in there.

Oh, my bad on this. Did Exhibition Stadium even have a dome ??? I may have mixed it up with another stadium.

[The Wedge]

What are they chanting??
