Yeah I'm sure it doesn't cost them anything to produce like it does during the regular season. I'm sure all the people involved are doing it for free and the telephone and television companies are not charging for their services. Greedy MLB just wants you to pay a fraction of a penny for each game so they can just fill pay for reporters like Adam Mcalvy (who probably just mails in his columns that he downloads from previous years and changes the names) or complete access to all the teams. Yeah those greedy bastards!

 

 

Wow, sorry for not being clear in my last post. I REALLY deserved to be mocked for making such an egregious error. If McCalvy and Co pushed for it to be free and apparently got the nod that it was indeed going to be free I don't see why the games shouldn't be free.

Top of the 6th

 

5-1 Rockies

Julio Santana Pitching for the Crew. Host of changes. Mascara( spelling), Prince, Rickie, JJ, Durrington, McGruder, Krynzel, and not sure who they said is in right.

 

Garabedo - HBP (caught stealing, Mascara from his knees)

Sullivan - E 4 Weeks throws one low to Prince, but Schroeder says it was more of Fielder's fault as he should have made the play

Gonzales - (Sullivan steals second) 6-3 (Sullivan to third)

Reggie Taylor (hitting for Matt Holliday) - K looking

 

Through 5.5 5-1 Rockies

Despite yet another slow start from Helms, he should be the backup third baseman, PERIOD. Cirillo is garbage and the only reason he's even here is that the Padres are paying him 7 Million to stay away. I just don't like the idea of all the nostalgia surrounding this guy, because what Cirillo did 6 years is irrelevant. If he makes the team as a super sub, then fine, but he should NOT be the backup 3rd baseman. That being said, I actually hope Helms stays sluggish in the spring so Branyan will indeed play 75 percent of the time. It's at least nice to see that he slimmed down and should have much better range this year, and I gotta think the bat's gonna bounce back as he gets settled in.

Not that you directed the question at me, or if it belongs in the in game thread, but I graduated with a girl whose dad was the batboy for the Milwaukee Braves in 56 or 57... How's that for an experience??

I was lucky enough to batboy for the Brewers in Sun City during ST in '85. Freddy Fredrico (sp?) was the trainer at the time. The first day we were down there my Dad noticed them pull a kid out of the stands to batboy for them. The next day I asked if he needed a batboy and they let me continue doing it for the rest of our stay.

 

They paid me in baseballs which was just fine with me. I got a ton of memories from it. Got to hang in the club house, rub down the baseballs before the games, the whole works. Good times.

Sounds like it was fun. The experience at Beloit was like no other. It was a volunteer job and didn't get paid but the experience was awesome. My duties were just to fill up a jug of water for each bullpen and dugout, hang out in the dugout/on the field til game time, pick up bats during the game/give ump balls, and after the game empty out the water and that's about it. I am proud to say I batboyed for Prince, Weeks, and Tony Gwynn Jr. Got a Gwynn bat too with his name on the end and I had him sign it.

Bill and Daron just talked about an e-mail question concerning the "free" webcasts.

 

First, Bill plugged the idea that the $14.95 spent for Gameday Audio is very well spent. (I agree with that.)

 

But then Daron added that he felt these particular games should be free, that it was promised that they would be free, and that the people involved are trying to work things out.

That’s the only thing Chicago’s good for: to tell people where Wisconsin is.

Sorry lost it for a minute on a call can anyone fill in the blanks.

 

 

 

 

Sutton just said they are trying to work out the deal for the free spring training webcasts. He said they are having some problems, but did admit that it was sent out that they were supposed to be free for ST.

I was the batboy for the TimberRattlers for one game. I was picked by some girl when I walked into the game. I actually was the Batboy for the other team. Nobody spoke English, and I was there with a group of people. I wish I had not agreed to do it.

 

 

It sucked.
