This Week in Baseball

[Bruiser Chong 0]

Yeah, but wanting to see someone to die for giving up runs is ignorant.

[Guest]

Someone that he knew would give up runs.

[Guest Fishyswa]

This is gonna be a tough comeback to make, how do you find motivation to score runs when your pitchers make them meaningless...

Hey Al, did you guys brainwash Felix Rodriguez to suck once you traded him to us? How in the world was this guy a set up man for a world series team?

Indians had the tying run on third in the ninth and Belliard grounds into the DP to end the game. Moments earlier, Abreu struck out to end the game. And it looks like Maddux is going to lose, thus ending his streak.

FOURTEEN YEARS IN A ROW!

 

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Mets win their fifth in a row. I'm glad to see they're at least trying to make something out of this season and end the year on a high note.

 

Heartbreaker in Cleveland tonight. Indians came this close to tying in the bottom of the ninth but fell just short. Still two back...

Until postseason comes around. Then people are asking "where did the champs go?"

[bob_barron 0]

At least we made it to the postseason.

 

::Cue 5 page discussion on the Braves and the postseason::

When the Braves gets eliminated, what hat will you be buying, Bob?

Not sure. Those Angels caps look pretty, but I like those black ChiSox hats.

Good man. Though that's assuming they get in and survive longer than the Braves.

The Braves are one of the few playoff-bound teams I could stomach see win it all. Don't ruin that.

I think I'm allowed my one night celebration where I run around screaming, doing the tomahawk and wooooing.

[USC Wuz Robbed! 0]

I'd think the Braves fans would get used to this. After all, as you'd like to remind us, 14 years...

[mike546 0]

Bonds hits 708, and the Giants lead 3-0.

[bob_barron 0]

I never get used to it.

 

Mainly due to my extreme nerves, that I always think they're gonna blow it.

 

I've been figuring out their magic number since August 1

[Spaceman Spiff 0]

Phillies are D-O-N-E.

[Precious Roy 0]

Pedro was shut down for the year, taken out of tonight and Sunday's scheduled start. This has been rumoured for about a week, but still a blow to many fantasy owners, myself included....

 

And what the FUCK happened to our bullpen tonight? Jesus....

[therealworldschampion 0]

Ugh, the Phillies don't deserve the playoffs after the last 2 nights.

[Dobbs 3K 0]

Brewers win again tonight, beating the Reds 6-2. They only need to win 2 of their last 5 games to ensure a non-losing season (an even .500) for the first time since 1992. This is also the first time the Brewers have been above .500 this season since May 27th. Ironically, like someone pointed out earlier, the Brew Crew would be on top of the NL West if they were playing in that division.

[Bruiser Chong 0]

For all the Yankees fans who bitch about, well, anything, take solace in the fact that there's a $100 million team about to finish fourth.

Leiter (since going to the pen), F-Rod, Franklin and Embree haven't been bad the whole year? Proctor I don't mind, hes been good.

 

Edit: Thinking about, how basically I see everyone complain about their own teams bullpen, it really says a lot about the amount of good relivers now a days.

[Precious Roy 0]

Jorge Posada has been batting for like a half hour. Thats a lot of foul balls.

[CanadianChris 0]

And this was The Night Where Everybody Lost.

Someone needs to remind ESPN.com that it's not 14 straight NL East titles.

Yeah, but you could say the same for half the Major Leagues, so it's not that big a deal.

 

Seriously, I'm glad to see the Brewers playing well this year. God knows it's rare to see a small-market team (outside of the Athletics) succeed on any level, so this season from Milwaukee is promising to say the least.
