The only thing I can think of is that his presence is stealing Snake's thunder somewhat.

Really strange play in the Mets game. With the bases loaded and one out, Reyes hits a ball that is quite clearly trapped and not caught by the center fielder. It's called an out, but the umpires eventually reverse the call, make it an RBI single, and decide that every runner simply moves up one spot. Never seen anything like that happen before.

What is it, exactly?

Cueto's turned in a phenomenal first start for the Reds so far. 7 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 10 K. If he lives up to expectations, the front end of the Reds' rotation suddenly looks really, really good.

Your profile is at the top of the Friends Roster and it includes your Friend Code.

The team says Martinez has a strained hamstring. He's getting an MRI tomorrow. Let's not freak out just yet.

I have the EI preview. The problem is that the Mets, Yankees, Phillies and Pirates are in the blackout range. First three teams no problem, I get their games on local cable. The Pirates? Not only do their games not air in my region, the city is over a five hour drive away. Tell me about it. I don't get anything resembling a Pittsburgh broadcast in Columbus and Pirates games are always blacked out.

Pirates finally put the Braves away, winning 12-11 in twelve innings. Absolutely crazy game, rife with errors, unexpected big hits and the complete excavation of both teams' bullpens.

Pittsburgh blows a five run lead in the bottom of the ninth thanks to a single, a bunch of walks, and a misplayed fly ball. Yep, they're still the Pirates.

Don't really have anything to add regarding the Mets game, except that it was really, really fun to be there live. Fan ratio was about 3:2 in favor of the Marlins. Mets fans were being drunk jerks as usual. I saw Logan Kensing don a Naruto headband and do his Mr. Miyagi impersonation. Goin' again tomorrow.

I'm lucky enough to see the Mets' first game of the year and Santana's first start with the team in person tomorrow. Dad lives in Fort Lauderdale so he's putting me up for a couple of days so we can attend both the first and second games. Never been to an Opening Day of any sort before. I'm unbelievably excited.

This game went from boring to great right quick.

Spartans are just getting embarrassed here. This is hard to watch.

Haha. That was a point of interest over at Baseball Think Factory, too.

Apparently Hideki Matsui got married. Here he is with an odd sketch of his new wife's face. Hm. Well.

I only recently completed Persona 3 and absolutely loved it, so imagine my delight when I realized that there's an expansion coming out in just under a month. Not only does it include the original game spiced up with new events and features, but an additional campaign that takes place after the events of Persona 3. It was kind of disappointing to find out that Aigis is the main character in the new storyline since I found her to be more irritating than anything else in P3, but I'm not going to complain about 30+ more hours of gameplay no matter what the circumstances. I'm also extremely happy that Fes is only going to cost $30, especially considering that I'd be willing to pay full game price for it.

Apparently "TEAM LOGO" finished last in the NL East the previous year with a record of XX-XX. Found that out watching the Mets-Braves today.

Not particularly interested in either team but will be watching for the sake of seeing actual Major League Baseball.

I like Manny Acta a lot. Wish he was still a part of the Mets organization.

Christ. This is going to be an amazing ending no matter which way this game goes.

Holy crap, Belmont might actually do this.

I messed with it too, but I changed the X button to grab and Y button to shield. Feels sooo much more natural.

I like it. Floating platform at the bottom was a nice touch.

I'm pretty sure you need to rapidly click up and down on the control pad.

Worked for me. I think you need to beat Classic Mode with Link after completing the Subspace Emissary.
