Is Hays really safe?  What a crazy move.

Doubt there's a shot to overturn it if they challenge

I'm pretty sure he got up to around 11 feet and still missed the ball by 2 feet, lol

Yeah, saw that. I was joking.

[Gurgi]

Hays did the high risk high reward move there.   Its great he is in scoring position now.  Now we have two chances to bring him in.

OMG how on earth did he slide in safe there

The fresh haircut with the sides short is a lot more aerodynamic.  Hell of a (risky) hustle play by Hays.

[PHRESH]

Love the hustle by Hays

Well it's a good thing the O's don't suck, otherwise you would be forced to use the brown bag over your head.

Ahhh remember when we used to wear the brown bags over our heads, pre-2012? I can’t remember which season exactly. 

[Hank Scorpio]

You know your manager has no faith in you when you get pinch hit for by McKenna.

I'm not entirely comfortable with Joey Krehbiel pitching the eighth inning of a close ballgame since he's warming up currently. 

 

[Aristotelian]

This is the worst banter ever. painful, even.

To be fair, getting up to 11 feet would qualify as having ups in my book.

I’m not really comfortable with most relievers pitching in close games.

Beard clock. Thought clock. Manfred is already looking to implement these next year.

Unfortunately my memory isn't great these days.  I'm just glad we don't have to anymore!

Again …I don’t think the 29/30 is accurate. That ball gets hit into the monster at Fenway.

I don't know it hit high off our wall and was coming down when it did.  The monster is what, 40 or 50 feet closer than our wall?   And only about 20 feet higher.
