I am all the way on the Mexico border near Brownsville. I'm actually in McAllen, the upper portion of the Rio Grande Valley. My work takes me to both sides of the border. The Reynosa Broncos of the Mexico league play about 20 miles from my office. Nolan Ryan's Bass Inn is at Choke Canyon 3 more outs to go! Let's trot out the best guy to close this game Mark B.!

He's got a restaurant down by me the Bass Inn. Decent food and his name on everything. A legend in Texas.

I love hearing Hawk say He gone!

Wish I shared your enthusiasm and optimism. Remember when we start playing Billy ball no lead is safe!

We just taught them that defense and already the Twins are good at it

Botch has nutzz? when? On a team of disappointments he's the disappointment closer. And yes, if we start throwing rocks we have a lot of targets.

If they truely had a bullpen by committee it may work. Bullpen by committee isn't throw any old stiff up in the 9th. Instead look at situations and if you are nursing a 2 run lead in the 7th and your starter is struggling go with your best arm in the bullpen to shut it down, don't save him for the 9th. You still need some good arms and some pitchers. If you mean start trying everone and see who developes as the 9th inning go to guy, maybe it is time to start looking. Anything is better than this.

WTF is wrong with Billy Koch, seriously. This guy used to top out at 100mph, now his fastball is the same speed as Mark Buehrle. Is he hurt or mental? Maybe KW got tricked again like the Barry-Berry trade, and he got the wrong Koch. LMAO

Flash At least he has a cooler nickname than :fyou Botch.

I always wonder why trolls are trolls. It seems that low esteem, low IQ, low imagination, poor writing skills, and a lack of sex with a partner all combine into one nice package. We do have this guy's home page http://www.thesmokinggun.com//doc_o_day//d.../doc_o_day.html

Now THAT'S A CLOSER! Think he can pitch? Imagine the clubhouse hijinx as he learns spanish. That is one messed up scary dude. Think he has lots of friends in prison?

They why not put him on the DL? He clearly can't pitch for a team trying to win a division. And if for some unfathomable reason he has to pitch, then why not say Sorry Billy but you're a set up man? We're not going to get anywhere with Billy pitching this way.

I saw a glimpse of baseball in hell yesterday. You only play the 9th and Billy's pitching for your team. We got him, what are we going to do with him? Can he be effective for us? If not, do we annote someone closer and start geting them some experience. Marte? Flash? Hell, if we need him to pitch an inning let's make it the first.

f*** Botch and f*** KW for getting the no talent prick

JM do anything for me to add to the Jerry's Blunders?

I said earlier today that Flash is going to be a big factor in our success for the rest ofm the season.

Just got home and figured the game would be over. Are we lucky to be in extra or did that error bite us in the as, or should we have won this game already?

Oops you are correct it is extra innings just like tonights game

If we win 2 of 3 from Minny I'm going to jump in and probably, maybe buy my digital cable companie's mlb package. Does anyone have the time-warner mlb package? Are some games blacked out? According to TVGuide online, all the games are shown on my local cable. Before I drop the $150 for the rest of the season, I want to make certain I'm not going to get screwed by having things like Saturday's game vs ScRubs blacked out like on mlb.com Would prefer to not watch the games in a 4x4 box in the corner of my monitor.

OMG did I suck on the tiebreaker. I lose to everyone on a tie. I was thinking a 5-3 kind of game. E-Lo rocks

s*** they'll notice PK before E-Lo

Shouldn't this be locked after the start of the first game?

Now he has KW to really help him

It takes a while for the news to reach the east coast.

I get Joe and Billy confused It's Joe Mays the pitcher ~and~ Billy Mays the pitchman
