Okay, so I was at the game today and here are a few of my notes:

 

1-The home plate umpire drove me up a friggin' wall with his 10-second delay before calling a ball/strike.

 

2- Pie NAILED that triple, and holy crap can he fly. It's even more impressive in person. And in his second at bat...that shoulda been a home run. he missed by literally two feet and the wind was blowing in when he hit it.

 

3- Cesar Izturis? Seriously? hahahahhahah

 

4- Lee really made me mad. He looked so out of it. He just watched quite a few great pitches just float over the plate.

 

5- Ellison (I think thats his name...#9) is a prick. He fake-threw to the stands at least three times during warmups.

There's no way that's Lilly, the guy in the pic isn't even white.

 

:oops: LOL you're right, comp screen gave it a weird look, not sure who that is.

 

Ohman, maybe?

I had to ask, what kind of a camera were you using? I mean, it must be a pretty darn good camera just to get that up-close. Yeah, they showed up pretty darn good.

 

And hope that you had a good time at Wrigley.

Really nice pics, Roast.

 

Remember when Pie was skinny? He's really added a lot of weight. Stop me now before I start thinking he might actually turn out well.

Ohman is white too....

 

It almost looks like Izturis..but I dont think Izturis was on that side of the field, I'm pretty sure that he was in the batting cages...

 

 

Also, I'm actually kinda disappointed with my pics from this game. I was messing around with some of the different modes on the camera (like with the marquis warming up pics) and some of them turned out blurry.

 

I think this is still my favorite picture i've taken this year:

(thats lee on Jackie Robinson day)

 

by the way, THIS is the camera I was using. I LOVE that thing. It's a Godsend. A blind monkey could take great pictures with that thing.

Those are some really nice pics. I was in the bleachers in April, and the dude sitting next to me showed me a ball that Dempster signed for him which said "Ninja Warrior, Ryan Dempster."

 

Said Demp was the only pitcher to sign.

Does that brace on Aramis Ramirez's knee concern anyone else?

 

not really considering that's why he's on the DL

I know thats why he's on the DL, but I always seem to think there is more to the injuries than what the team says.

I'd actually be a little more concerned if he wasn't wearing a brace

I'm with you on Felix. He's been a beast since coming back up.

Holy crap, do you need to go to a school with better looking women. if that's not the worst picture ever, she's a 3 in good health

Isn't that Izturis with Z in that one pic?

 

Also, is it just me, or does Felix look a lot like Akon?

 

EDIT - Nevermind, it's definitely not Izturis. Not sure who that is.

Wow that was a lot of pictures...

 

Am I the only one who doesn't get the Miller Lite sign?

 

It's poking fun at Starbucks.

Ahh...ok

 

I'm giving myself a pass on looking like an idiot since I have never been to Starbucks. But yeah, Seattle...kinda common sense.

She appears to have a pretty good body though...I'd hit it.

QFT...

 

And at midnight/1:00 a.m. I'm guessing she reaches 7-8 status.
