Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Morgan: "I've never seen Derek Jeter with his batting average this low. I mean, he's gotten off to slow starts before, but it must be some sort of statistical mistake."Morgan: "This is the perfect matchup for Jeter. A lefthanded pitcher, who throws fastballs, and off-speed pitches."[/quote:3fi16e6k]Your statistician is screaming in your ear, Joe. Listen to him.

seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Morgan: "See, Cora has a short throw, and then Reyes has a long throw. You can't get a double play if you have two long throws."Oh, and a huge thanks to Teixeira for swinging at the first pitch right after Sabathia had to run the bases.
Gwreck Old-Timey Member Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 I used the DVR to sync the video to the WFAN audio. I am blissfully unaware of the ignorance being foisted upon the general public by Miller and Morgan.[/quote:15p5omru]Same thing here. No Morgan, No Miller, No Buck, No McCarver, no problem.
Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Okay, we get it Jeter is friggin' great. Can the M&M boys get off their knees and stop blowing Jeter.?Nice DP. Then a quic grondout an the inning is over. Let's jump on Fat Boy while he's still winded from lumbering around on the bases.

Guest metsguyinmichigan Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Jeter has the range of a garden gnome.

Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Jeter displaying the range of a Mo Vaughn at shortstop.
Guest Swan Swan H Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 They don't have to erect a statue of Jeter at Yankee Stadium- they can just send a truck over to Citi Field and pick up the one out there by shortstop.
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Miller: "Says here that Derek Jeter's 'Zone rating' has gone up this year!"Morgan: "I don't know anything about any 'zone rating,' all I know is watching guys."(Oh, wait, that's an actual quote.)

Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 This is the perfect matchup for Jeter --- a pitcher who throws palmballs and hotel chairs, farts to the east, and dreams about swimming.[/quote:1387vq4r][/quote:1387vq4r]That made me spit beer. As did:"Jeter has the range of a garden gnome."
Guest metsguyinmichigan Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Mets are flashing the leather!!!
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Am loving these quick innings from JohanEven the ones where they had base-runners he got out of them pretty efficiently.

Guest metsguyinmichigan Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Hi. My name is Derek. Please hit it to Cano.
nymr83 Old-Timey Member Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Miller/Morgan talking about Stratomatic?
Zvon Old-Timey Member Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 That game was All Star Baseball.My brothers and I used to play full seasons with that back in the day.
Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Cora made the mistake of trying to hit one up the middle, but unfortunately for him it's virtually impossible to get one past Jabba the Hut cloging up the middle.
Guest metsguyinmichigan Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 The blue caps look just great. I was hoping to see the pinstripes, too.
Guest metsguyinmichigan Guests Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Zvon! I've still got that game! We used to make our own discs -- and Seaver had a pretty big strike zone! (At least on the one I made.)
seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Miller/Morgan talking about Stratomatic?[/quote:2oiwp7aa]Miller and Orel. Baseball math game is way over Morgan's head.
