7/11 AL All-Stars (Rogers) @ NL All-Stars (Penny) 7:20CT FOX

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Haven't seen any of the game (just got in), but I'm willing to bet John Legend has been the best part of the whole game.

 

Highlights

 

- McCarver calling Brad Penny's fastball 'boring' and then Penny goes out and strikes out the side to start the game with 97-98mph fastballs.

- some pretty good pitching all around

 

 

When he said "Boring", he was calling it a drilling fastball. For example, one can "bore" a hole into the wall or in this case into the catcher's mitt. He was praising Penny's fastball.

[Roast]

Ugh, pitch Z dag nabbit.

[TruffleShuffle]

Haha, way to jinx Eckstein by calling him one of the best 2 strike hitters in baseball.

[ToupeeOnFire]

Thank you Phil Garner.

 

Z needs the rest.

Yeah.

 

And I just want to point out Troy Glaus went to UCLA. He's pimp.

[Brian]

stupid Hoffman

 

Z should have closed :(

[TruffleShuffle]

hey, i didn't know dempster was on the all-star team

[J.R.]

WTF

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Certainly would have been cooler if Glaus had the go-ahead hit instead of Young.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Now it really feels like a White Sox game.

Now it really feels like a White Sox game.

 

It's awful.

[TruffleShuffle]

It's ok, I'd rather the Tigers have home-field in the World Series

[Brian]

Have Carlos PH, he could take Rivera deep :D

[ToupeeOnFire]

Go to hell, Trevor Hoffman. You just cost the NL the home field advantage in the World Series. Go to hell and DIE!

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

Did anyone see that NFL Fox commercial just a few moments ago?

 

James Brown is no longer the host of the NFL on Fox?

[TruffleShuffle]

Go to hell, Trevor Hoffman. You just cost the NL the home field advantage in the World Series. Go to hell and DIE!

 

who cares?

[UMFan83]

Phil Garner should be shot.

 

Sanchez

Beltran

Howard?

 

 

Should have been

Nomar

Jones

Howard

 

 

What an idiot, I hate Garner

[TruffleShuffle]

Those of you who don't know Mariano Rivera??? He's not a rookie, McCarver.

[UMFan83]

BTW, the NL still has

 

Uggla, Nomar, Jones and Rolen on the bench

 

AL has

 

AJ

 

This is criminal keeping these guns on the bench you fool

[Brian]

Those of you who don't know Mariano Rivera??? He's not a rookie, McCarver.

 

I was going to make a similar post, I can't think of a scenario where a person is going to watch this game for more than a couple of minutes and not know who Rivera is.

Not like it affects the Cubs any.

Too many creeps in silver and black on the dugout's top step with screwball grins on their faces.

[UMFan83]

Everytime I pick a team in baseball to cheer for, they end up sucking. I hate baseball

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

9 years and counting for the American League.

Yeah, but Dusty has his horses back, well except for the one that had to be put out to pasture.
