Brian Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Does Hawk have a list of things/points that he repeats every game but trys to pass it along as some new thought? 1. Strike 1 is the most important pitch in baseball 2. A well located fastball is the most important pitch in baseball 3. Baseball is a battle of the bullpens these days Feel free to add.

ScottyDo Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 4, 2010 -> 10:42 PM) Hawk "Your offense is only as good as your bullpen." ? Maybe thats our problem. The middle relievers have been wearing the offense's unis and have been hitting for them. Hahaha that is a truly bizarre thing to say. I have my TV muted (stupid organic chemistry tests...); why did he say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget how the umpires have taken away the pitchers' ability to pitch inside! And that 1-1 pitch is a huge, huge pitch in the grand scheme of things! And Yaz is one fine piece of ass!

ThunderBolt Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ May 4, 2010 -> 09:42 PM) Hell no, Santos has more power than Pierre. The best part is that he really does. Santos could probably hit as many homers as half the guys on the team, his contact rate would be miserable though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Hawk says makes absolutely no sense to me most of the time. Really, I consider him more of a mascot than an announcer. In fact, he rivals Southpaw. If Hawk were fuzzier, greener, and a better dancer, I'd say we should just consolidate the two jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ginger Kid Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 well, that's the guy you want at the plate in that situation. I can't tell if this is really just a funk or if these guys are going to flail like this all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
