...and then there was one.

[Edgy MD]

The battle for third is serious.

[TransMonk]

Just ask Sandy.

[Gwreck]

I don't understand the significance of the picture.

[Edgy MD]

Great artwork doesn't need a reason. It just is.

For you and I to root for a third place finish, ahead of Filly and the Phish, is basically all we have to root for, team wise. And we will root for that. But for the front office to make a statement that this is now the teams goal is silly. Of course its the teams goal to win as many as possible. Unless there is some reason I'm missing (like if they don't make 3rd heads will roll) it makes no sense to me that they put that out there.

[Zvon]

Its official. Wright wants third place! His 77th RBI put us up 1-0 in the first.

[Zvon]

Young does not look sharp in the 1st. Opens with a walk and a HBP.

[Zvon]

Walks Utley. Bases philled, no outs. I may have to turn this off and head to the closest bar. Fortunately, its w/i walking distance. So I can get REALLY smashed.

[Zvon]

Howard: Grand slam. Young : 4 batters faced, 4 runs.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

BOURN WOULD HAVE TOTALLY BROUGHT THAT BACK INTO THE YARD

[Zvon]

Who gave Kelly Shoppach Ho-Jos nose? Guess I'll try to stick this one out.

The Red Sox owner when the puss called him on his cellphone to bitch.

[Zvon]

Baxter rips one.

Ka-BAX

[Zvon]

There ya go. Wright drives in another. 4-4 us.

We're winning a tied game. Gotta love the spirit.

[Frayed Knot]

During Friday's game vs Washington, Kyle Kendrick held the Nats to 2 runs and got the first two outs in the 7th, and Manuel still wound up using 7 pitchers to finish a 4-2 win.
My point being that he pulled Worley here in a tie game and with a low pitch count in just the 5th inning so no telling how many he'll use ... and this is already a slow-ass game.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Come.... back? �Que es una "comeback?"

[Zvon]

UTLEY! GAH!

[Zvon]

Heeeeeeeeres Carson!

Plus we've pretty much known for a while that Young wasn't long for this game.
