Game 62 Open Thread Overflow

Bendermad_tiny by azruavatar on

Lots of comments tonight. 

 

Parisi has probably punched his ticket back to Memphis especially if Pineiro is going to be out for much longer.  FWIW, Anthony Reyes is matched up on the same rotation day in memphis -- not that that means anything.

If AK wasn't an idiot

It’d be 7-2, parisi could bunt, and with a little luck we’d be back in this game if Iz2 gets a hit.

It's inconsequential now

Because if everything had stayed the same, Kennedy would have scored on Glaus’ hit, and Parisi would have bunted. It would be 7-2 now and Izturis batting with runners on 2nd and 3rd

"headed for the bullpen"

I’ve heard that the press boxes at Nats Park are way up there – does it affect depth perception? I’ve noticed that Bob Carpenter has been really excitable about routine outs.

That one off Nieves’ bat was “deep into the bullpen! and it will be corralled.”

Which was it Bob?

How does he not make it to first in time

THe defender double clutched on that play, and he still couldn’t beat it out.

Nah

He’ll wait for the DFA so he can get the 3 million for next year too.

I'll bet..

He slowed down intentionally, because he was certain he hit into a DP, and wanted to give them the opportunity to turn it.

I'm calling for a test run of Hoffpauir right now

lets see what hes got…cant be worse than AK.

The only one who liked the Cardinals so much he became a St. Louis Cardinals football fan.

He is killing this team tonight! (just as he does EVERY night)

Easy mistake to make

But Todd couldn’t rake like Mark can.

I take solace in the fact

that it will be really hard for AK to hit into ANOTHER dp tonight.

by TheBirds on Jun 5, 2008 9:24 PM EDT up reply actions  

I think it's safe to say that

this is the funniest I have ever watched. Don’t get me wrong, it would be great if we could somehow manage to pull off a comeback win. But either way, I got a lot of laughs out of it.
