I hate getting shut out more than anything. I'd much rather lose by 15 runs than get shut out. Last ABs for everyone with the top of the order coming up now.
I tried to log in on my iPad. Turns out it was an etch-a-sketch and I don't own an iPad. Also, I'm out of vodka.

Never heard Ueck talk about balls and strikes so much. He's calling out Jerry Layne by name. The called strike 3 to Betancourt was a joke and then he came right back and didn't give Wolf a call on a pitch right in there.

 

Ueck's also abusing TJ Simers but how hard is that?

Funny - two things just happened that would've scored Braun from third after his "big" steal: an infield single and a balk (true, the balk wouldn't have happened then).

Like I said, I don't expect the ump to get every call right but FIVE pitches in a row called strikes that pitch f/x shows as balls? No way.

It doesn't matter how many different ways a runners can score from 3rd than 2nd, it matters how often they happen. The numbers say, not very often. That said, Braun wasn't being held at 2B and the 3B didn't even try to cover the bad, so I can't complain about he attempt. It was basically a sure thing.

Hart with a nice AB and hit it well but right at someone. Baseball can be really annoying at times.

I was just making a fun little observation, I wasn't arguing anything about statistics and probabilities.

Stinks that even if Fielder gets on and drives in Weeks that I don't think we'll be able to drive him in. I just have no faith in that part of our lineup.

 

Hopefully he just jacks a homer.

Looked like he hammered one about as hard as he could earlier, and it still didn't go out. We need someone to pull one down the line for a homer.

Fair enough. I think you can add catcher interference then as a possible way?
