2008 All-Star Game: NL (Sheets) @ AL (Lee) 7 pm FOX

[Bruno7481]

Bob Feller is a turd. About 20 years ago he was in town participating in a local celeb baseball game before the AAA all star game. He spent the whole time bitching about being in it and forced to share the field with disc jockeys. One of the AAA guys got fed up and put on street clothes pretending to be a local guy. He took him deep on the first pitch and Feller left the field cussing. Edited July 16, 2008 by Bruno7481

Winfield with two hats.

[illiniguy]

no Stan the Man??

 

I heard he was in real bad health lately. Very sad that he isn't there.

Yeah, he has cancelled a ton of autograph shows and isn't even signing through his home anymore. Doesn't sound like he is able to. It's too bad I am sure he hates missing this.

[splintersag]

I didn't know Kevin Garnett was a Braves fan :lol:

[UMFan83]

I wonder if Kosuke has any idea who the hell Willie Mays is.

 

He's no Sadaharu Oh

[UMFan83]

Catcher?

[Bruno7481]

This game might start by 9 EST.

I'm sure he has NO clue. He's like, who is this guy? Willie Mays??

[Careless]

We've got Pujols DHing instead of Braun?

 

That raises the question: who would be worse in left of the pair? Interesting battle.

Pujols used to be a decent outfielder, but that's half a decade ago.

He's not very good at transfering the ball after catching it.

 

Hopefully somebody catches that reference

Feller has always been known as a bit of a douchebag.

 

Did have a cool windup though!!

And they give you cash, which is just as good as money.

[UMFan83]

Is it just me or is Buck really messing this up?

 

There is no way they intended for the managers to get announced before the catchers. And then on the last one he introducted the starting catchers first and then the HOFers.

[OleMissCub]

Yogi doesn't look very well.

In the blue corner, coming in at 5 foot 2 inches.....

[Little Slide Rooter]

He clearly forgot about the catchers and went back to them.

I think they did it that way to let Yogi go last. But, Buck messes these up all the time. He tries to be the moment. Instead of letting it happen.

[UMFan83]

And tonight is a very special night...as we introduce a lost legand.....freshly thawed and reanimated... TED WILLIAMS!!

 

 

Whoops, too soon?

[OleMissCub]

I'm surprised that egomaniac JoeMo wasn't on the field. Maybe he refused to stand near Ryno....

How fast did he throw? I heard stories that he got it up in the mid 100s.

Gwynn got fat fatter than a retired football player

 

edit: faster, not fatter

 

It's better the other way.
