I'll take the over. They're really close to a big inning off this tubby mess of a ballplayer. (My fiancee says he looks like the guy from Smashmouth.)

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

A patented Jeter-can't-get-there single up the middle.

[Zvon]

lol.
No love from the booth for Gregg Jefferies.

Esp on a wide screen TV.
He's wider than the Babe himself.
Maybe wider than Eric Gregg during his wider days.

[Guest AG/DC]

I'll never buy into taking a pitch if the guy is running.

If you like the pitch, have at it. He'll be on second by the time you swing.

And taking to the point where you step out to give the catcher room to work... come on.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Keith, on the Yankees' lineup: "It's obviously not as good as it used to be, back in their heyday."

Umm, they scored 80 runs more than anyone else last year.

[Zvon]

DON'T walk Jeter!

Gah, he walks him.

That weak single that Pedro didn't cover for,...as a second baseman I would have dove and snatched that out of the air. Even as Delgado was jumping, I would have been going into my dive.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Ugh, Endy throws up the line. Forget that Ali G thing from before.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Take your purple lips and SIT DOWN!

[Zvon]

Did Darling just make up a new word?

Comftability?

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

I wonder on plays like that, a deep, obvious foul ball with a runner on 3rd, if you'd be better letting it fall?

[Zvon]

Giambi didn't want to walk from what I saw him swingin at, yet Martinez walks him.


Nice catch by Nixon but it allows them to plate another.

Well, we are gonna score more than 4 runs anyways,
......right guys?

I'm still taking the over. This is the inning they get into that awful bullpen like raccoons in a trash bag.

That wasn't all that foul from the running fielders perspective.
He was just crossing the line.
In this case I agree with the booth. get the out.

Now if he was at the stands waiting for it to come down, thats another situation.

Would you let it fall then? You can set yourself for the throw home.

[Zvon]

Rangers just took a 7-6 lead over the Phils in the 5th.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Whoa, Perez?

The way Pedro was walking batters Id personally get the out / hopefully DP.

[Fman99]

Odd seeing O.P. warming up in the pen. I wonder if they intend on calling up Armas or someone to start Sunday's tilt instead of Ollie.

But as a Mets fan you have to hope that the MFYs are putting Igawa in (also warming up). He stinks out loud.

Yeah, he needed an out there. He's back out for the 6th.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

GARBAGE!!!! Don't give him that base, gaddammit!

[Zvon]

Interesting.

Looked like Martinez was def gonna be pulled....he starts the 6th.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Buulshit- no attempt to avoid the pitch. Pedro should drill Damon.

The SNY team suspects Perez is just getting his throwing in, this being two days prior to his start.

Yeah, I just thought Pedro was definitely coming out and no one else was throwing.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Wow, that Wanted movie sure looks like the Matrix.

[Zvon]

Its SHOWtime!

[Guest AG/DC]

I think Pedro is close.

Too wild today. That should improve.

According to reports I've read Sunday is Perez's last chance to right his ship.
My prediction?





No-hitter.
