There is absolutely no way the explanation for pop outs can simply be put on the players trying to hit homeruns. There is nothing that simple about baseball.

Ozzie will probably give him a shot to go one more inning with only 97 pitches. But if he gives up one walk or hit he'll probably be out.

I'm dumb.

Fearless prediction: If Riske comes in to close it out it will be over quickly.

He did throw 24 pitches the inning before, but leaving him in may have worked out better. Oh well.

Don't have the game on tv but he started off terrible but ended on a more positive note with 2 solid innings.

Way to Go Billy!

That sure is bad luck because if that runner comes in to score in will be an earned run. Apparently you can never assume that a double play will be made.

Why does everyone always say that when Billy comes in?

Why would someone pay 16000 for that?

Pleased Adkins (Before this year never proved to be anything more than a mopup guy) Cotts (Been very reliable in the lefty reliever role) Mike Jackson (I guess he's not too old, we'll see how he copes as the season continues) Loaiza (I have to admit I thought he was going to suck in comparison to last year) Schoeneweis Garland (Kudos to Ozzie?) Gload (More than adequate so far off the bench) Uribe (Wow) Konerko (Props for the great comeback year... so far) Thomas (Seems like he's doing a great job as a leader) Disapointments Koch (But not really... hasn't really had a great chance to disapoint me) Crede (I guess but it's still early, and he has made some important plays)

Kill Bill 2 was great and a very different film than the first. Not saying the first wasn't good either but it was just a lot different. QT has said that the first was more Eastern style and the second more Western style. I just loved the acting and I didn't feel like I was missing anything with what some called a lack of action. Not to mention great conclusion. P.S. Carradine deserves an Oscar nomination.

What's our record so far in one run games?

Oh baby does he ever!

Well Danys Baez is a hard pitcher to lay a bunt down off of.

I think we might see Marte next inning. If there is a next inning.

I agree but if the situation calls for a lefty Ozzie should be confident with Cotts, at least for now.

A joke that needs explaining isn't a joke.

Once again

Seeing as that can't happen.

Well it was either him or Marte in that situation and you have to be able to have faith in more than one lefty.

Apparently Koch is still warming.

Solid lefty Trevor Miller warming for Tampa maybe to face Willie in the 9th.

Odd because there are no righties coming up for Tampa.
