Whoa, I missed this little detail the first time around!

[Edgy MD]

It beats sending Reynolds out there. No offense, Matty, but go, José!

I'm also excited about this Nimmor kid.

[Guest d'Kong76]

The mlblineups on the twitty twat was twardy this afternoon. I had to type
that by hand. I battled, came up short with an extra r...

[Edgy MD]

I like how he wears the insignia as a codpiece.

[Edgy MD]

Who's calling this game?

[Guest d'Kong76]

I'm guessing the non-Ron voice is that of Gary Apple?

[Edgy MD]

Rosario, leave that crap to Jeter. Plant your leg and throw like a real person.

[Guest themetfairy]

Wayne Randazzo is calling the game tonight - his first TV game.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Not Apple.

[Edgy MD]

He's doing fine, but HE'S NO JOSH LEWIN.

[Edgy MD]

My wife just got home. I got up to greet her and five runs scored before I sat down.

Not that I think hell be a sub-par defender, but the reports for going on two years with Rosario were that he could play defensively in the majors RIGHT NOW and it was only a question as to how
quickly his offense would catch up. Those reports don't seem all that accurate so far.
A better play on that ball and that's an entirely different bottom 1st.

[Guest 41Forever]

Normally I'd say this game is over. But against the Reds in that bandbox, it's still possible.

[Edgy MD]

Easy trivia question. But not as easy as they fly that Reyes completely misplayed.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Wayne Randazzo, sounds different on tv lol...

[Edgy MD]

And it gets scored a double.

[Frayed Knot]

Lagares didn't break his thumb on that slip ... so there's that.

[ashie62]

We suck. Then again what do you expect from Flexen.

[Guest d'Kong76]

It's early, there's time to de-suck still.

[Lefty Specialist]

Or conversely, to suck even worse.

[Frayed Knot]

Four plays not made so far tonight:
- Rosario's throw
- Flexen's kick save
- over Reyes's head
- d'Arnaud not holding on to the OF throw

That plus five walks is a bad combination.

Always a possibility!

[Edgy MD]

Don't let this tight end eat you up.

People are still wearing ROSE 14 jerseys in that park.

Might as well wear a Cosby shirt.

Let's load the bases and send up Taijeron Power.
