MikeJordan23 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 Fuck these umps. Called a 1-1 pitch to Giambi a strike that was 8 feet outside, and a 2-1 pitch a strike to Cano that was 8 feet inside. And Tanyon Sturtze has morphed back into Tampa Tanyon, giving up 2 HRers in 2 innings. Gah. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That play with Sheffield being called save at first in the bottom of the 9th was far worse.
mike546 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 While it *might* have been more important, the strike call on Giambi was pathetically obviously a ball. It wasn't even close.
MikeJordan23 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 While it *might* have been more important, the strike call on Giambi was pathetically obviously a ball. It wasn't even close. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah it wasn't a strike, but remember, it's where the ball crosses the plate not where it lands. The way it landed made the call seem more ridiculous then it really was.
Brett Favre Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 Well, the Sheffield call wasn't obvious either. We do have replay, and at first glance, I thought he was safe too. Either way, two bullshit strikes. One on Giambi, and one on Sheffield.
mike546 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 The thing is, it didn't EVEN cross the plate. It had amazing late movement, and completley curved around it.
mike546 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. That was Bonds vs Lilly territory. If that doesn't get Giambi going, I don't know what will. edit: Brown left the game with back spasms ugh.
devo Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 Once again, a Mets starter does everything short of sucking dick (to quote the always eloquent Randy Johnson) to get a win, only to find nearly no offensive support backing them up. Real, real bad loss. Six out of the last seven. Drops 'em below .500. I'm disappointed, is what I'm saying.
strummer Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 i knew as soon as Scutaro came up the game was over. UGH
Guest Mosaicv2 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 I feel like sticking my left converse sneaker up Victor Zambrano's ass.
devo Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 Why? He had a great start. The loss isn't his fault in the slightest.
Guest Mosaicv2 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 The guy just bugs me, he seems to work so consistent... then loses 5 starts in a row (with or without the run-support). Be like Pedro, HAVE CONSISTENCY! but thank god the Mets release AL fricking Leiter.
EVIL~! alkeiper Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 It amuses me that Yankee fans are getting excited because of a home run off Jose Mesa.
mike546 Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 It really was a big win, when you think about it. Were still 6.5 behind the Os, only 5.5 out of the wild card, and all this with RJ going today. A loss last night would have been killer.
Brett Favre Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 It amuses me that Yankee fans are getting excited because of a home run off Jose Mesa. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> We're more excited that we won a game after trailing in the ninth. Who really gives a damn who it came off of.
TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 Not everybody's closer can be a Rivera/Gange type.
The Czech Republic Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 Speaking of Gagne, who is supposed to miss a lot of this season now, Rocco Baldelli is also out for the year.
Mik Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 Well, I read that Baldelli may need Tommy John surgery. How many other position players have had to get TJ surgery?
Richard Posted June 16, 2005 Report Posted June 16, 2005 I guess the Padres can only win every other month.
Precious Roy Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 Well, I read that Baldelli may need Tommy John surgery. How many other position players have had to get TJ surgery? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Luis Gonzalez had it midway through last season, and he's back full strength this year, which is good news for Rocco. That's rough though, a torn ACL and a wrecked elbow??!!
Vasarian_Brandy Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 It amuses me that Yankee fans are getting excited because of a home run off Jose Mesa. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was happy to see that Joe Table was back to his old form (and he's out of an Indians uniform whilst doing it). But I'm not a Yankees fan, so I guess that doesn't count.

DerangedHermit Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 Tony Womack underwent TJ surgery in 2003 I believe. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And he still sucks. Heh - in other news, Beltran hit his first HR when someone other than Pedro starts. Yay!
Bored Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 I'm going to the A's/Phillies game tonight. I'll be sure to chuck batteries at Al's boy.

The Czech Republic Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 For $200 million, you should be sweeping the Pittsburgh Pirates with Bill Swarsky's Super Fans-style lopsided scores.
Brett Favre Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 Well, it just doesn't work that way, does it?
The Czech Republic Posted June 17, 2005 Report Posted June 17, 2005 I can't wait for today's Cubs@Yankees game!
