Guest OSIcon Report post Posted April 12, 2005 Also for the O's, Roderigo Lopez is 2-0, allowing just one earned run in 14 innings. At least through the first two games, he it pitching like the number one starter should pitch (and then some).... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 12, 2005 Dodgers: The hitting has been much better than anyone expected. Well, if anyone listened to us intelligent analysists instead of the blithering idiots that populate Around the Horn, you might have seen it coming. I don't watch Around the Horn, I just believe that J.D. Drew wasn't the best acquisition, nor do I believe they should have kept Beltre, but their hitting won't hold up to be good enough. They will need to make a trade for a hitter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cuban Linx 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2005 The Texas bullpen is sure looking to be an adventure this season, messing up a 6-2 lead to lose 7-6, all four Rangers/Angels games have been decided by a single run so far. After almost saving 50 games last year Francisco Cordero already has 2 blown saves to his name, hopefully they can get Carlos Almanzar and Frank Francisco back soon to dish out some chairshots and rectify things.

Mole 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2005 I just got back from Fenway (Well an hour ago, but I had to drive from Long Island to get there) and that was one of the best times of my life. Seeing the BoSox get their rings, in front of the Yankees. People cheering Rivera. Seeing the Yankees lose, by a lot. And just a good ol' time for my first time at Fenway.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2005 Well, Sammy Sosa just hit his first home run as an Oriole. The problem is, the umpire ruled the ball foul even though it struck the foul pole. So Sammy instead of his first homer, gets at walk down to first. That was a bad call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2005 If it was Golf, a viewer could of called and said the Umpire made the wrong call. Well, as long as it's within the rules. You gotta admit, the PGA really can claim to be fan friendly. I wonder what the umpire think happened to the ball for it to be going straight and then suddenly deflect down and to the right. Did he think there was a really big spider out there and the ball hit it? That wasn't even a hard call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Shadow Report post Posted April 13, 2005 Jason Marquis hits a triple to unload 3 runs. 3-1 cardinals. After a good first game, Harang looks like shit as the rain comes down hard again. Idiot umpire let Cardinals get a free baserunner. Jason LaRue made a tag off a pitch but the idiot ref completely missed it when it happened RIGHT in front of him.
