Thought that was deeper. Got in on him.

Sweet, unsweet?

I have to have my coffee black tomorrow

I'm normally all about the non-dairy creamer.

I still think Strasburg has an outside shot of making the Hall of Fame. He has had a really good career, it's just been his health.

UN!  I love unsweetened iced tea, I basically live off it, multiple gallons weekly.  I don't drink soda.

And I hate sweet tea.  All that sugar makes me feel yucky.

I never pull away from a fast food drive thru without sticking the straw in and tasting it first.  Because about one out of ten times they give me sweet even though I asked for unsweet and that can just ruin my day.

Wojo on 3 days rest and unable to locate his fastball...I'll take any scoreless inning I can get.  Get 2 more out of him and bring in Akin.

Yep, I would be happy with 4 innings and less than 2 runs.

AT LEAST one out of ten! Pisses me off when they do that.

Why is asking the O's to get the first lead in a game sometimes seems like asking for too much.

[scOtt]

I don't mind tea a little sweet but McD's is sickeningly sweet. Yuck!

Can confirm, same down here.

He'll make it if he always gets the wide strike zone today's home plate ump is giving him, so far.     

[scOtt]

Pitch count getting out of hand. And Wojo isn't nearly as sharp as he was.

[scOtt]

SWEET 6-4-3!

[SteveA]

Man, not easy to double up Turner.  Well done by Valaika/Alberto.

[scOtt]

Good escape! And his pitch count is looking better now. 48 or 49 thru 3.

If I'm managing, try to get him through the lineup twice, maybe let him finish the fifth, then he's gone.
