OoTSB, Friday the 13th

[Guest AG/DC]

Phillies lead St. Louis 13-1.

Emergency relief by Ankiel before the night is through?

[Frayed Knot]

Not a chance.

[Guest AG/DC]

What could possibly happen?

[Frayed Knot]

He throws 19 wild pitches in a half inning and winds up curled in the corner weeping uncontrollably to the point where he's useless for any position for the next month.

Or not.

[Guest AG/DC]

You're a sports fan. How can you not root for a man to confront a dragon so huge?

[Frayed Knot]

Oh it's not that [u:d047a76f3e]I[/u:d047a76f3e] don't want to see it.
I just don't think it's going to happen.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

MFYs win 2-1 as the Astholes run themselves out of at least 2 innings.

[Guest AG/DC]

Your final is 20-2. The Cards used six pitchers (wow, Russ Springer is still going), none of them named Ankiel.

[Guest AG/DC]

[Frayed Knot]

Infielder Aaron Miles pitched the 9th - setting down Rollins, Victorino & Bruntlett 1-2-3 on two pop-ups and a comebacker.


AL teams won the night 9-5 and hold the edge for the year while trying to "win" IL play for the 5th straight season.

[Guest KC]

The magic elimination number (Mets losses and leading team's wins) for the
wild card is 89 in case anyone was wondering.
