  1. 75% chance he mentions "Bear weather." What are the odds they show this play?
  2. It'd be nice if we could get our speed aboard to lead off an inning.
  3. For whatever it's worth, Neifi has a ways to go to be the leading walkless wonder... Most plate appearances w/o a walk: (shamelessly filched) Matt Holliday 79 Jeff Francoeur 79 Rondell White 70 Aaron Hill 63 Kevin Mench 61 Brandon Phillips 47 Jay Payton 47 Nathan McLouth 41
  4. AB #40: An intentional walk to get to the pitcher First non-intentional walk: AB #47, it will be on a 3-1 count. Neifi will make a half-hearted attempt, but check his swing on a pitch just outside of the zone, and stand there like a doofus thinking it's a strike while the home plate ump implores him to take first.
  5. Anyone remember this one... Let's go... Batter up... We're taking the afternoon off... It's a beautiful day for a ballgame For a ballgame today The fans are out to get a ticket or two From Walla Walla, Washington to Kalamazoo It's a beautiful day for a home run But even a triple's okay We're gonna cheer And boo And raise a hallabaloo At the ballgame, today! It's amazing how the lyrics have stuck with me after all these years.
  6. Jock is not too happy with the fans... This is the second time he's complained after delivering a big home run, maybe the fans are doing something right after all.
  7. Let me just add... NOMAHHHH! Nomar's granny in the 9th beats Brad Lidge and the Astros.
  8. They're just teasing us here, aren't they?
  9. Yes! All night the Marlins make gold glove play after gold glove play. Finally we get a break.
  10. This guy has trouble finding the strike zone. Be patient!
  11. Mabry swings at a pitch well outside. He is truly a Cub.
  12. Pretty good - not great - outing for Z. But when you're pitching in front of Dusty B. and the Hacktastics, pretty good won't cut it.
  13. Why was Zambrano left in to hit? He was already at 91 pitches. I know you want to save the bullpen and all, but you are down 3-0.
  14. No, this is good. This means he is getting that trademark fire back. Maybe he can beat up the water cooler in the dugout, then he's sure to turn things around. :roll:
  15. So the new theory is that Zambrano's calmer demeanor is effecting his pitching ability. Expect this to become a meme.
  16. Random factoid: Derrek Lee has more walks than 5 of the players in tonight's lineup combined (Pierre, Cedeño, Barrett, Jacques, Neifi).
  17. 2 out walk. Dusty needs to have word with that kid.
