the Redskins beat themselves.

Joe got a ‘feelin’ in his belly about Nomar.

He forgot that was just exploding diarrhea from his wheat grass.

I would have thunk he matched up pretty well against Moyer despite the lefty-lefty.

I turn when I need some #

Hey the Chiefs didn’t lose today either! If only Mizzou hadn’t of lost, then this would have been a perfect week for football in MO.

some look awful. Jamie Moyer looks awful.

probably not, hopefully not, but it could be. Esp if the dodgers somehow manage to win this series.

He was in the next room over and Furcal went yard, and I yelled to him, “Bad news for the Cardinals!”

to afford tickets in that part of the stadium. It’s ridiculous even in the regular season.

throwing at a hitter right now would be moronic.

But I’m not sure what the Phillies are so bent out of shape over. I know they don’t like that Kuroda threw at S.V’s head, but their pitcher threw at Russell’s head, so I don’t see the difference.

If you don’t want guys throwing at your players’ heads, then get your pitchers in line.

Cornrows too tight?

Love the description “Dodgers dragging their meal ticket back to the dugout.”

“Hey, we can throw over your guys heads, behind your backs, drill you, etc…but gosh darn it, you better throw it at my ribs!!”

Perhaps the Phils were barking at him since he started this whole thing in the papers, calling out Billingsley for not retaliating.

we’re gonna see take out slides, collisions at the plate, etc.

it got a ton more stupid!

A bunch of millionaires getting their panties in a bunch over nothing. I enjoy watching baseball too much to get more entertained when shit like that consumes our time.

If they don’t want to play baseball, they should go home and allow the Cubs and Brewers to play for the NL title. Then they can create some WWF cage match between the two and sell millions of tickets. They need to grow up and act like men.

Is he breaking down? I wouldn’t be able to tell you. But his “history” to to play virtually every single day.

With the big Manny hair and I was like, is that the kid from Hook?

Manny redid the hair after the NLDS. Can’t decide if Belly’s playoffs hair was more effective.

if the Dodgers and Red Sox met in the WS and in Game 7 Manny hits a home run to tie it and Nomar hits one to win it?

thus making it pass through the plane of their bat at some point?

A right handed hitter, a changeup starts away and stays away.

most batters can adjust the swing for the slower pitch, after which the first baseman (for a lefty) should be prepared to take cover. If it runs away (to an opposite-handed hitter), and is thrown to the outside edge, it’s a lot harder for the batter to keep from getting out in front of it. If it has sink, too, that can produce weak ground balls.

you have the lead in the series, worst case scenerio is that you go home to Philly down 3-2 with Hamels and Myers available. No sense in forcing Hamels on short rest and leaving yourself without that silver bullet.

sometimes the all-stl crew serves us well. we get lingering comments/shots/references with no relevance to the game except for Cards fans.

and he probably thinks he’s at least got a shot to throw out Howard.

I actually look forward to it, but they’ve been sub par all the way around.

Breaking ball . . . clueless LA fans still booing their hearts out.

definitely didn’t bring their A game tonight.

as usual, but if we’re going with the team full of Jeff Suppan and Mr T clones, I’m liking footnote no. 36 for the prep school analogy of the Sauks.

Vlad’s giant strike zone.

before tomorrow.

Thank you National League with your non-communist rules.

good baseball & lots of it.
