Horton speculated

they’d use him to pitch to the lefty Giles… but changed his mind.

I was wondering about that

maybe Tony thinks we’e going to extras….?

by nota bene on Jul 20, 2008 3:53 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

yeah

he could have at least gave looper an at bat.

by adiueordie on Jul 20, 2008 3:54 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I was wondering that same thing.

I guess they want to let him get a bat in during his first start.

Unlikely this year

This weekend would have been the one but a death in the family a couple of weekends ago threw a wrench into that plan

if you're high enough

you get shade from the over hang.
Then if you are low enough, one side is shadier than the other. I can’t remember which one though.

buy your tix online

and at the purchase screen enter the code ESAVER and you can get half price tix.

Sad to say, I think he's right.

Did you see how Flores tapped the bag with his toe AFTER the feet slipped? He knew. Bad break, but the right call.

by StanTheManFan on Jul 20, 2008 4:38 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

He had his foot planted

in the dirt just foul of the bag, but he was touching it.
