lostfan Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:24 PM) When did Dye decide to become not as bad to watch? Well for the sake of balance, Dye did have a pretty bad 3-pitch strikeout earlier. Just to make sure all is well in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanne Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:24 PM) When did Dye decide to become not as bad to watch? Nice to see Swish get another hit. Dye started off awesome this year...had to shelve it for a while and has taken a little bit to get back. He's been pretty solid so far IMO. Not a work of art defensively...but I think he's played pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its amazing, the minute this club gets into a big park they stop with the softball nonsense. I have to give you credit for that prognostication. I think we had 3 oppo hits last night which is more than we'd have in any 2 week stretch of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 (edited) I've got a story about Jeff Clement, the guy who was just at bat for the Mariners, he's the catcher. He graduated from Marshalltown, Iowa in 2002. On July 3rd, 2002 he broke the national all time home run record held by Drew Henson in my hometown of Mason City. I was a sophomore playing for the Mason City baseball team and we were trying to get the sophomore games rescheduled at our ballpark so we could have a chance to see if he hit a home run. They estimated it over 425 feet, it's hard to know how far it would've gone since it hit the top of the 50 foot bus barn, which is 75 feet away from the right field fence, right field is 320 feet. Sure enough he did and I was at bat in Marshalltown when they announced it, so they had to stop the game and give him a couple minutes of cheers, then I tried to go opposite field and lined out to left field. That's my story, haha. The record was like 71 homers I think, I have no idea how many he ended up with. In 2001 he hit a homerun off of us that was the straightest homerun I've ever seen. I had never seen such a low line drive do that. Marshalltown won either 2 or 3 championships in a row with him. They always killed us, and we weren't a bad team either. We won over 30 games five years in a row and were ranked #1 in the state at one time for 3 years in a row.

fathom Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Darn, Anderson almost makes a beautiful play. Javy needs to get these balls down, as the Mariners are getting some good pitches to hit. No 6th inning blowups Javy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostfan Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Jesus, you figure Anderson already plays shallow to begin with, and he was shaded slightly to left. Runs all the way to the warning track and misses the catch by about 2 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
