vs. ROYALS, 6/07

[DNM13]

We might be in for a Boston-like slugfest.

I LOVE it when we face an opposing pitcher who's having a terrible day. It's so nice to know that we're not the only team whose pitchers regularly make horrible starts.

Unfortunately, that sensational catch keeps it at 1-0.

"1-0?!" you say?

Yes. ONE to nothing. That's currently the score. In Ubaldo runs. You see, where a regular pitcher's runs are measured in ones, Ubaldo's are measured in fours. A comfortable lead would be 3-0 in Ubaldo runs, or 12-0 in regular pitchers' runs. 1-0 is a razor-thin margin. One 10 or 15-minute lapse in suddenly and inexplicably "realizing that he has no idea how to throw a baseball nor having any idea where it might go when he does" for Ubaldo, and it's tied right back up.

I wouldn't feel comfortable if Ubaldo had a 10-0 lead. He can give up a 7 spot in a heartbeat. He may do that here...

Tough luck there

Bordick said that the fans here appreciate good baseball, hence the applause for that amazing catch by Cain in centerfield.

I suspect that if the score were still 0-0 instead of 4-0, they would not be so "appreciative."

Agreed. I take everything Bordick says with a grain of salt.

I wish that our damned batters would show some patience, and take a pitch or two.

They just hack away at everything. :angryfire:

:rofl: Rep incoming :rofl:

This is starting well.

No lead is safe.

That Cain catch could prove large. 4R is hardly Ubaldo proof. As we are about to see.

[weams]

4 is alot. We might need 10 for Ubaldo tonight...but at least he has a cushion.If that ball went out it wouldve been 6-0.Sigh.

I was sure it was gone.

[ArtVanDelay]

Ubaldo's 0-2 pitch of choice is a hanging 77 mph meatball at the eyes.

[Slim Shady]

UGLY pitch right there

[TouchemAll]

OMG his mechanics are ALL OVER THE DANG place. :rolleyestf:

[Slim Shady]
