QUOTE(qwerty @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 08:03 PM) Does ozzie realize what inning it is? LoL, just saying the same thing. He's gonna burn the pen out. Thinks it is the 8th.

They said they had a power surge in the production truck, but everything is good now.

Something is wrong in the truck because they are only using the camera behind home plate. Don't know if Hawk and DJ realize they are on the air.

Um, Comcast SportsNet in Chicago just put on "This Week In Baseball". Instead of the Sox game. Now it is back, without Hawk and DJ. I like it!

"Take Me Out To The Ballgame" for now. But come September, it will go to "Hail to the Victors".

Contreras is pretty good for afternoon games at home, if I recall.

QUOTE(KipWellsFan @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 06:58 AM) I have some serious doubts about this one coming anywhere close to the quality of the first. They don't have to try very hard to make it better than the first.

QUOTE(spiderman @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 01:12 PM) What do these guys do ? I know you're not going to hear everything, everytime, but what exactly do these guys do besides check newspapers/message boards around the Internet for their information ??? This Griffey stuff is priceless...The report comes out, and both have been their stations since acting like it was something that they knew about, trying to sound 'on top' of the situation.... They talk to GM's PERSONALLY, having their numbers on their cellphones. They don't read message boards and the internet for their information. They get it at the source, at least Levine does, I know for sure.

Had some computer problems during the game, but just wanted to come back and say that 8th inning at bat for Crede was f***ing pathetic. He had no plan. Usually if the guy goes away the first two pitches, you should adjust and look away.

FYI, we are hitting just .221 off Miguel Batista in the past 3 years.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 02:17 AM) Well he's responsible for over half of our runs tonight. Somebody else needs to step up at some point. Couldn't get Gooch in from 3rd with 1 out earlier, and now this. But hey, 1 out of 3 ain't bad.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 02:12 AM) I predict Paulie will ground weakly to SS, put his head down and job to first as Everett is forced at 2B. Hope I'm wrong. I was kind of right.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 02:14 AM) 2 wild pitches please 1 down, 1 to go

2 wild pitches please

I predict Paulie will ground weakly to SS, put his head down and job to first as Everett is forced at 2B. Hope I'm wrong.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 02:09 AM) The Cubs just lost in awful, awful fashion!!! Rollins played Barret, BAD!

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 01:59 AM) I know, I know. I just think that it's better to be more careful with the starter at this point in the season than to push him to the max. I just wish Ozzie trusted Cotts a little more. Especially with 3 lefties due up.

Walker is rather nasty. Not sure why he was yanked from their rotation.

Aaron nice enough to hit that ball before it killed a worm.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 01:48 AM) Pk is hitting a robust .000 w/ runners on 3rd at home this year. And .042 overall. Found that he is hitting .368 with a runner on 3rd and less than 2 outs. But .145 with runners in scoring position. Awful.

He pissed me off in the 1st, but kudos for Orlando for shutting em out for the next 5 innings.

Did you guys know we almost had Griffey?

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 01:09 AM) Just like how people said there was no way the Red Sox would beat the Yankees after being down 3 games last year? I'm sorry, but there's no guarantees in sports. Up 15 on Cleveland in the loss column, with 50 some games left. Tough for them to play 16 games better than us in that span. If it gets to 5 games, I'll worry.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 01:07 AM) My computer is unbelievably slow right now, but I would guess the OPS against him by lefties is much higher. .833 for lefties .755 for righties He's very inconsitent either way for me.

Paulie=garbage
