I'm in Boston for a reunion
And can’t get the game, so I’m relying on gamecast and u folks. Is this looking like a delay, or a rain out?
go cards.

There's some gnarly weather hanging out all over Northern and Western Missouri
so if they do get it in, they’re going to have to play like the wind!

I feel bad for my mom.
She’s at the game tonight on a “first date” kinda thing with a Met’s fan. I know when I’m at a game, even though they still sell beer, I hate rain delays.

how dare you let your mother go on a date with a Mets fan!
I suppose it’s better than a Cubs fan though :P

my only trip to Busch II
during the delay the scoreboard flashed—Have a BUD and wait this flood out!

I'm in FL
what’s it look like there
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
by showmejoe on Jul 2, 2008 9:43 PM EDT 0 recs
Like my living room
the living room is located in the basement, as there are 4 levels to the house. They are all split by small sets of stairs. We have two lamps and an overhead ceiling fan. The dog is asleep and I’m flipping between the various other ball games. There is an assortment of magazines on the coffee table and shelf with various little trinkets hanging on the wall. The missus lit a scented candle on the end table and you can see the flicker of the tiny flame on the wall, in an area the lamp light just doesn’t cover.
Why, what’s it look like there?

Usually I like your posts... Usually
But since you asked, my living room is dirty as hell, because my roommates refuse to clean anything. But the 63 inch HD draws enough attention that I don’t notice it while the Cards are playing, except when the MLB.TV rain delay graphic is on.

sitting on the end of the large L-shaped couch
I glance about the room seeing lots of cds, books, and dvds stored about the room. my hard drive recorder/mixer lies on the floor amongst multiple 1/4” audio cables as I turn on my practice amp and play the game through it. why I have been listening to the games lately through my guitar amp is anyone’s guess.

good one. actually, when I tried the built in delay it sounds more like an empty stadium. the reverb sounded like at the bottom of a well or in a cave. the best sounding one is the chorus though.

Another good relief inning for Clement
He has yet to give up a run as a reliever in Memphis

Who pitches when they come back?
Would it make sense to have Mulder pitch 3 innings or so?
by Hardcore Legend on Jul 2, 2008 9:56 PM EDT 0 recs
I wouldn't
mind seeing him pitch till he starts to buckle. Just to see if he can handle multiple innings
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
by showmejoe on Jul 2, 2008 9:57 PM EDT 0 recs
I also wouldn't mind him pitching multiple innings,
but not in a close game like this one. I think they should ease him back into things with low pressure situations.

Supplemental rounder Lance Lynn with 3 strong innings tonight
3 IP / 1 H/ 0 ER / 0BB / 3 K’s
He’ll most likely be taking the Clayton Mortensen route , ie the express train to Memphis.

the delay sent me over to the rays game and
watching them try to come back against the sox and one of the sparks has been bartlett, their ss. reminded of the zobrist talk. any word on zobrist and how close he may be to bartlett, who is playing very well this year.
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs, perhaps you haven't grasped the situation!

Zobrist is a man without a job over there
Reid Brignac is in AAA, knocking on the door to the majors and Tim Beckham they just drafted 1st overall, is a 5 tool shortstop

is the pitcher.

Tony is going to try and get him to go 5 to get him the win

now, if we rest wellemeyer through the break, can we still have boggs pick up a couple innings tonight?
by tom s. on Jul 2, 2008 10:19 PM EDT 0 recs
that's why I asked. I can't keep up with the mystical rotation,
which varies based on who is healthy and what house venus is in. Thompson pulled four innings last night, so who does that leave us for long innings. KMAC? Mulder?
