my god, that crowd!
Love the Cards players getting booed during intros. Getting that heel heat.
Looks like Austin, TX gets broadcasted mostly Rangers games instead of Astros (yay). Probably won’t get cable anytime soon though. Maybe I’ll snag MLBTV next year since this season is isn’t looking to good at the moment for the Rangers. I need to drive to Minute Maid park sometime this season before the hill in center field is removed
Does Angel Stadium not have a press box for these commentators to be in instead of being outside on camera with umbrellas?
Is it ESPN? That’s apparently part of Sunday Night Baseball. I forget what they called it but the commentators haven’t been sitting in regular press boxes.
Jordy Mercer is out for an unknown time. What a fuckin start to the 2nd half, swept by the Brewers and lost another good infielder. Jaff (for real that’s how his family spelled Jeff. smh) the callup OF fouled a ball off into Pirates dugout and the camera cut to Cole on the ground… almost had a heart attack.
Mercer didnt do shit for my team on MLB but that sucks 
M’s did it! The impossible dream! Last place achieved!
Couldn’t be prouder.
Pirates stay getting fucked. Marte hits a dinger that bounces off the top of the pads and over, ruled a HR. Review comes in GRD… reason you ask???
“No comment”
e: oh shit Cutch had a moment where his ankle kinda rolled under him he was trying to get out of the box… he limped back to the dugout but I think he’s back in the field. Be still, my heart.
e2: defense shit the bed in the 8th. error by walker put a guy on first. cutch threw to 3rd instead of holding the runner so next batter got a double. polanco straight dropped the ball on his throw allowing 2 to score. after a gem of a night by cole. butts
A’s traded Kazmir to the Astros. :’(
Pirates happy to be home. Went up 2 in the 2nd.
Buccs traded midlevel reliever for Aramis Ramirez. Rumored to be in talks for a reliever too.
Liriano had a no hitter clinic going on, 8 Ks and Frankie made all of the plays in the field, then he walked the leadoff guy in the 5th gave up a hit and had 3 wild pitches in a row…
e: Kang is a baller. He is proving to be an amazing pickup, even if you would take away the Harrison and Mercer injuries he was playing well before then and since he’s an everyday guy now… he’s proving to be a lifesaver.
Athletics trying to make Moneyball Part 2 lol unless he has 1 year left on his contract. Need to drive out to Houston to see Kazmir in action
Cutch with the insurance 2 run dinger in the 7th.
Bring on the Scherzer rematch. No Tabatha to scum out a no-hit bid, Pirates FO put him in the X-Zone for reasons unknown.
^Listening to this game on the radio. My Dad thinks that Tabata maybe a sour apple on the Pirates bench. Makes sense cause he was performing his role fairly well. I think that elbow guard on the perfect game was just one incident over the season. Just speculation though
Speculation is they don’t like him around Marte and Polanco. Marte is lazy enough as is and Polanco needs to put in some work still. Guy can play but he’s still pretty fresh.
He supposedly went back to Venezuela after he got sent down for some time. Whole thing is strange.
He was gonna be a free agent this year
OMFG PITTSBURGH BODIES SCHERZER
I BELIEVE
Bases loaded stat graphic comes up
[list][]Giants 6 Grand Slams this year, #1
[]Oakland 5 #2, of top 2 teams
[/list]
That new Battle of the Bay Series.
Bases loaded no outs, then strikeout
OAKLAND 6-4-3 double play GTFO!
Bet on Baseball really small in Vegas during EVO, someone was waking me up Sunday telling me we gotta do this plan. Learned a lot. He won everything betting every bad team, EXCEPT THE MARINERS - something stopped him from betting them. Even with CC VallejoCA bad ERA vs King Felix. They both pitched well, Yankees sneak out a win. Jeff Francouer Stopped my underdog Marlins ticket from a win. LAD Grienke on the mound also = the underdog WTF how?! His sportscenter gets superstar calls, most strikes called by any pitcher outside of the strikezone.
that 18 inning Mets game also kept taking bets and the shit went nuts on numbers I didn’t understand.
Could’ve won bajillions with “GRAND SLAM TODAY?” oakland did it blowing up Minny. They still let you bet if Oakland would win by 8 runs, should’ve did that. Whoever the Giants played didn’t lay down and lose 2-0 vs Bumgarner.
And rain out games Padres, Angels who never get rain = get refund on your ticket. Good to know. Pete Rose on one TV while we were betting on Baseball.
Brandon Phillips behind the back, barehand to the shortstop barehanded was awesome.
Polanco battled his ASS off in the AB he hit his dinger. Like 15 pitches at least, started off 0-2. Scherzer was getting so buttmad when P started fouling shit off. It was a sight to behold. Best AB of the season
Then the Real Deal Neal Walker came up and shot one out of the park nbd.
Pedro with homers in back-to-back nights like, “Yah go ahead and trade me”
e: mlb.com has some serious quality to their highlights: http://m.mlb.com/video/v289876283/must-c-crushed-alvarez-homers-into-allegheny-river/?game_pk=415098
They call him the Big Bull and when he gets back into the dugout one of the guys down there did the ‘Ole!’ thing with a towel. gdlk
Brandon phillip’s behind the back play is amazing
They better not trade alvarez WTF
Happy Birthday Barry Bonds and my younger Brother, and Neesa
Same day.
