vs. MARINERS, 8/03

[Mendoza Line]

Nice 1-2-3

Sounds like he couldn't take criticism even if he was doing an awful job. Talk about being on the ultimate power trip. But no I don't coach little league I coach high level travel ball. I've been run from my fair share of ball games.

So you take pride in getting sent off from a number of games? Tells me all I need to know (not that your previous post about getting in people's/kid's faces didn't tell me everything anyway.

Seriously, your takeaway is that ump had to be the one doing an awful job???? It's Little League Baseball. It's not Division 1 football... it's not the Big 12.

Is it me or is the "Buck Bites" segment really not THAT funny?

Sounds like Bug bites.

It's kind of interesting sometimes... not that funny.

MARINERS ANNOUNCERS:

Tillman was having trouble locating early on, but now he's starting to hit the outside corner against the left-handed batters.

Sounds like Bug bites.

I even like those boobs...

[Ori-Al]

That was a quicker inning.

Wasn't this supposed to be a rainy weekend? Forecasts were off.

[Guest]

Yeah baby more 1st pitch outs.

[WEAVERMAN]

I pleading for 2 or 3 runs, we REALLY NEED IT.

[scOtt]

We HOPE he's a Waca for us... would be huge!

Tillman only takes about 75 pitches or so to get warmed up.

He should be fine by about the 4th or 5th inning.

OK, he should be good to go now.

Been raining all weekend in VA. Not sure about Baltimore but I think I heard it rained over night both nights.

[O's84]

It's supposed to rain soon in Bethesda.

I actually agree with this if he was doing an awful job. At my kids game this year the umpire was calling strikes that bounced on the ground. BOUNCED! Now am I not supposed to question the umpire? Our kids are being taught the strike zone and this guy wasn't even close. When I questioned him about what his strike zone was he responded with he was trying to move the game along. He's getting paid and our kids aren't being taught properly at that point.

I have a problem with that.

Still a chance for some showers yet today. We've been lucky tho.
