  1. HP Ump wants to go home. 3 straight balls called strikes.
  2. I feel like that was an opposite Javy, refusing to swing looking for the walk.
  3. Garcia is holding lefties to a .095 BA so far this year. He's about to hold Happ to a .000 BA this game Oh, hey, Kris Bryant just pooped on this kid's ERA Oh I know, it's obvious though that they view Garcia as being very tough on lefties and went with an all righty/switch line-up. I still expect Happ to go 0-4 with at least 2 Ks.
  4. Damn it Javy, that was ball 4 and wasn't even close to being a strike.
  5. Garcia is holding lefties to a .095 BA so far this year.
  6. Time to make a change: Drop Addison Russell Add AJ Pollock
  7. Austin Gomber* And despite this outing, he's still not anything worth noting.
  8. Yes, but not in the one year any of us actually cared about the AS Game.
  9. This is just a way to prevent Brewers fans from being able to sit there.
  10. Probably calling up a pitcher.
  11. Melt the snow, water drains pretty quick from the field.
  12. I went to a game last year and trying to leave was insane. They have a huge parking lot and two ways out resulting in it taking over an hour to get out of the parking lot. It's horrible.
  13. Apparently he plays in the highest level (elite) at Johny's Ice House.
  14. this much time? Or at all? Emergency goalie has definitely played before but I can’t remember more than 2-3 minutes I was wrong about it being the first time in recent history, but it's only been one other time that I can fine where the emergency goalie actually made it into the game. While I found a bunch of stories about emergency goalies getting dressed and being on the bench, I finally found one. It was actually last year and was apparently the first time it had happened (Hurricanes equipment manager Jorge Alves). But he only played the last seven seconds of the game and didn't face a shot. The one big difference is that Alves had prior professional experience, playing in the WHLEHCL, and was signed to a PTO (Pro Try Out) contract prior to the game. Foster doesn't have pro experience, so he was only sign to an ATO (amatuer). Alves was put in the game by choice, I think the only way Foster could get into the game was if Delia got injured and he had to go in (as in Q couldn't pull Delia for Foster), but I don't really know if that's the case. This is all only referring to recent history, I wouldn't be surprised if it happened a few times back during the Original 6 era and before (yep, back before 65 teams were only required to carry 1 goalie, so a house goalie was at every game. Seems the last time this happened before Alves was in 1963: http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/the-inside-story-on-the-oddity-that-is-the-emergency-backup-goalie-and-why-it-could-soon-change)
  15. About 14 minutes was left on the clock in the third. Also, I don't think this has happened in modern NHL history (at least not that I could find).
  16. I don't know whether to feel excited or depressed over having a unique WC pick If they hit a lot of HRs; you'd feel excited. It would move you up the scoreboard because no one else has that player. The problem is that he chose Yasmany Tomas, who's been sent to the minors. He should probably be depressed considering Arizona is writing off Tomas as a bust.
  17. If your getting that off of gameday, they don't necessarily keep accurate pitch counts. Many k's are 3 pitches, walks are 4, and all balls in play are on the first pitch. Still, 9k, 2bb in 5 innings is pretty damn promising.
  18. A: Giancarlo Stanton B: Nolan Arenado, Paul Goldschmidt C: Bryce Harper, Kris Bryant, Freddie Freeman D: Rhys Hoskins, Max Kepler, Addison Russell, Christian Yelich, Matt Chapman
  19. No. Dickerson is terrible in left as it is.
