[GormanHarvey]

Have a night tony

2 runs Plush cost us tonight. Let's hope that doesn't come back to bite.

[moofnelson]

Prince has 2 career inside the park home runs. He's fast.

 

If I recall, cny, those were two very bizarre plays. I know your just joking, though.

[moofnelson]

Meow, Meow, Nyger.

Braun wouldn't have scored from 1st. This would have given a sac fly opportunity, however.

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Hardly surprising...but this Cubs bullpen is horrible.

[dlk9s]

Meow, Meow, Nyger.

 

Come on, man.

[PKBadger]

They couldn't have made that more obvious. The ESPN cameras showed Braun yelling, "Nyjer!" right after his single, and nodding toward the 3rd base coach.

 

Try a little secrecy next time, fellas.

Yes bizarre, and yes joking. The MP one was more bizarre than the Metrodome one.

[moofnelson]

Hawkins or Saito would be nice about now.

[GormanHarvey]

I sure miss Saito right now

[GormanHarvey]

Veras looking much better now

[coolcool]

Never underestimate the cubs ability to leave baserunners stranded.

[GormanHarvey]

Ataboy Mat

[GormanHarvey]

Nice bunt Carlos! Suicide and safety in one game by the Crew!

[coolcool]

Slo-mo'd that... The throw went to the right of Gomez, but the 1B was inside of Gomez... Can't believe he was able to catch that in time

[endaround]

Gomez lucky he wasn't called for running inside the baseline

[coolcool]

Gomez lucky he wasn't called for running inside the baseline

 

Last year Morgan got called on that. It's one of those things you don't see called unless it's not an out. Had the ball hit Gomez on a throw inside, it may have been called. Ironic part was Gomez running inside helped the pitcher.

[MVP2110]

Nice double play! 1 more inning to go!

[dlk9s]

I get this sense that as Gamel plays more and more and actually realizes, "Hey, I'm a starting, full-time big leaguer," he's just going to take off. Like once the AAA-player up for a few AB's feeling wears off, it's on. He seems like a true, down and dirty "baseball player" to me, if that makes any sense.

[GormanHarvey]

Nifty dp there with the shift on. I really liked how Gonzo kind of surrounded the ball to give Rick time to go the bag for the turn. Also, nice stretch by Mat.

 

dlk9s...its funny you say that as I too have always thought Gamel just looks like a ball player

[trwi7]

I sure miss Saito right now

 

So do the D'Backs, because he's on the DL again.

[GormanHarvey]

Jamie Quirk with the Rick Peterson perm mullet look goin. I wonder if he wears his pants as tight

[GormanHarvey]

I sure miss Saito right now

 

So do the D'Backs, because he's on the DL again.

 

Yes I heard that. I meant the healthy version

[endaround]

Thank god we have Ishikawa so we can all experience an Izturis PA
