This games fun.

We get it, Halladays amazing, but with over 100 pitches, is it really necessary to have him throw a CG with a 6 run lead?

FFS, Philly bullpen.

Derek Holland's "mustache" should be illegal

Guys who have that moustache are usually doing something illegal.

Halladay now with 16 consecutive batters retired. I'd say he's settled in

 

Ended up retiring the last 21 batters he faced after a leadoff single in the second. It's the longest streak in the postseason since Larsen's perfect game.

D-Backs just got screwed out of an early double.

Great performance by Max Scherzer so far. 1 hitter through 6. The series immediately shifts into Detroit's favor if they win this, with Verlander starting game 3 in Detroit.

Good AB by Arizona's pitcher.

Future Cubs RF Justin Upton hits one of his soon to be trademarked line drive HRs. Guy is years away from his prime and he's already one of the very best in baseball.

I gotta say none of these games this weekend have been all that enjoyable. The best one was probably the phils game yesterday. I want to see some close games.

Iunno I have had fun watching the Brewers. Fielder and Braun are everything I thought they'd be so far.

 

Hoping to see Lee dominate between the million commercials during SNF.

i want to see the cards get no-hit and lose 37 to 0.

 

i hope that arizona announcer who flipped out and said something like "ARE YOU WATCHING THIS MILWAUKEE????" when they had a big comeback earlier this week is terribly embarrassed right now.

Cards scored 3 in the 4th, but Carpenter, who only threw 64 pitches was pinch hit for, so that doesn't look good for them.

Hopefully he came down with a case of death.

I really hate Ryan Theriot. Not a Phils fan by any stretch, but if they could hang up 9 or 10 runs this inning, I'd really enjoy it.

[TruffleShuffle]

fuckin ryan theriot... [expletive]

[Yeti]

suck it theriot

[TruffleShuffle]

larussa's boner for L/L and R/R matchups certainly does pay off when ryan howard is one of the LH batters.

[Sammys Boombox]

This is an extremely frustrating game to watch.

[TruffleShuffle]

i want the phillies to scratch across one run, which would be problematic for the cards since they've already used about 19 pitchers in this game.

[El Duderino]

frak

[TruffleShuffle]

all he throws is fastballs, someone hit a fastball.

[UMFan83]

Blah. Hamels better be awesome the next game. Are the Phillies going with a 3 or 4 man rotation this round?

[TruffleShuffle]

i'm sure they're going with four, because why wouldn't you when your fourth is roy oswalt? even if the phillies lose game 3, i doubt they move up halladay, because you need to win two games, and it's better to have a normal-rest oswalt and normal-rest halladay. even if halladay is kind of a robot.
