Did Kerry get a standing O from the crowd when he went to the mound? What was his reception like?

[Balsa]

No runs, but we made him work for the first inning and he didn't look that good. We'll get to him.

[rocket]

jones grounds out to 2nd to end the inning.

How did I predict that was gonna happen.

 

at least it was on the 5th or 6th pitch

[Outshined_One]

I can and will boo our Cubs, sir.

Ward is starting to look like Randall Simon.

How is the velocity on Wodd's pitches?

[rocket]

where the hell was that?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Ring him up!

He looks somewhat different, like he's shortening up or something. I haven't noticed any falling off to the left, but whatever he's doing is looking good so far.

Throwing across his body, but his release point is consistent.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

I don't like the home plate ump's strike zone.

not as violent as previously?

[Chocolate Milk]

How's Kerry's velocity?

 

Ronny wanted that strike called. He was angry.

Yeah that's what I noticed. He's not really falling off the mound towards first base that much. You suck Zimmerman.

How is the velocity on Wodd's pitches?

Fastballs look to be mostly in the low-mid 90's.

[rocket]
