vivalaultra Posted June 17, 2007 Report Posted June 17, 2007 The Astros finally gained a game on the Chicago Cubs last nite, beating the Seattle Mariners for their second win in a row. The Cubs last to the San Diego Padres 1-0. And Morgan Ensberg won me $40 last nite by hitting a homerun when the people I was at the game with doubted The Mo. Today Roy O goes against 'Gerard Washbin' (credit: Milo Hamilton). Roy hasn't gotten a win in the last month, but he's pitched well enough to have at least 9 or 10 wins.
Dandy Posted June 17, 2007 Report Posted June 17, 2007 Adam Dunn over the last 4 games: .625, 4 HR, 8 RBI, 5 R, and is also in a 7 game hit streak. Bad news is the Reds are still sucking it.

Dandy Posted June 17, 2007 Report Posted June 17, 2007 The Reds just can't put it all together, and it's mainly because of the atrocious pitching. Even when we have a decent outlook with pitching coming into the year, it all goes to hell. It seems like when there is good pitching for a single game, the offense shuts down. It's hard, but I'll always be a fan.
Dobbs 3K Posted June 17, 2007 Report Posted June 17, 2007 Thanks for the highly demanded Brewer Report. You're welcome. It's nice to be cheering a first place team.
USC Wuz Robbed! Posted June 17, 2007 Report Posted June 17, 2007 Thanks for the highly demanded Brewer Report. It's fun to read the White Sox assclown fans chiming in on yesterday's fight. Lee is a pussy for throwing a punch at a guy who aimed a fastball at his head, but last year, that one reliever was a pussy for declining to throw a fastball at someone. How does that work, exactly? Should you, or should you not engage in this crap? I guess it depends on which side of town you're from. These are the same idiots who think "dose propellerheads are rooning baseball," and think Kyle Orton should be starting for the Bears. Such knuckledraggers. Come on let's be fair, there's North Siders who thinks the same about Orton.
EVIL~! alkeiper Posted June 17, 2007 Report Posted June 17, 2007 Former Expo Warren Cromartie defeated Tiger Jeet Singh in his professional wrestling debut.
vivalaultra Posted June 17, 2007 Report Posted June 17, 2007 Nobody here cares about the Pirates, but I just wanted to pass along that Ian Snell is going to miss his next start on Tuesday because he burnt his finger while grilling chicken. Also, the Astros swept the Mariners. The 'Stros scored a combined 24 runs on 41 hits over the three-game set. If they keep on doing like they're doing, they've got a shot...unless Prince Fielder starts hitting inside-the-park homeruns everyday now...
Dobbs 3K Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Yeah, that was pretty wild. Too bad they couldn't win, but I'll take 2 of 3 at the Metrodome any day.
Red Baron Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Whats the rule about a Balk? I mean I know the runner advances when a balk happens, but how do you determine whats a balk?
KingPK Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 (edited) 8.05 If there is a runner, or runners, it is a balk when -- (a) The pitcher, while touching his plate, makes any motion naturally associated with his pitch and fails to make such delivery; (b) The pitcher, while touching his plate, feints a throw to first base and fails to complete the throw; © The pitcher, while touching his plate, fails to step directly toward a base before throwing to that base; (d) The pitcher, while touching his plate, throws, or feints a throw to an unoccupied base, except for the purpose of making a play; (e) The pitcher makes an illegal pitch; (f) The pitcher delivers the ball to the batter while he is not facing the batter; (g) The pitcher makes any motion naturally associated with his pitch while he is not touching the pitcher’s plate; (h) The pitcher unnecessarily delays the game; i) The pitcher, without having the ball, stands on or astride the pitcher’s plate or while off the plate, he feints a pitch; (j) The pitcher, after coming to a legal pitching position, removes one hand from the ball other than in an actual pitch, or in throwing to a base; (k) The pitcher, while touching his plate, accidentally or intentionally drops the ball; (l) The pitcher, while giving an intentional base on balls, pitches when the catcher is not in the catcher’s box; (m)The pitcher delivers the pitch from Set Position without coming to a stop.

TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Thanks for the highly demanded Brewer Report. Pot. Kettle. Black.
Red Baron Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Prince Fielder getting an inside the park home run is laughable.
Dobbs 3K Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Thanks for the highly demanded Brewer Report. Pot. Kettle. Black. No kidding. I didn't know we could only post results for the three or four ESPN-approved teams in MLB.
Vern Gagne Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Prince Fielder getting an inside the park home run is laughable. I've got to give Prince credit for hustling around the bases. Even though he ran around the bases like a goof, he moved pretty well for someone 260 pounds.
Dobbs 3K Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Everyone tries to make Prince out to be a beer league softball player type of oaf, but if you've seen pictures of him sleeveless, he's ripped. That doesn't necessarily translate into the speed, but the guy is an athlete.
Cheech Tremendous Posted June 18, 2007 Report Posted June 18, 2007 Fielder was 7 for 9 on steal attempts last year. That's good for a player of his size.
Conspiracy_Victim Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 Prince Fielder getting an inside the park home run is laughable. My first thought was that somehow all 3 outfielders ran into each other and got knocked out.
TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 Yahoo Sports. Bombers ponder deal for Hillenbrand Monday, Jun 18, 2007 2:53 pm EDT The New York Yankees have talked to the Los Angeles Angels about Shea Hillenbrand, a right-handed hitting first baseman they were interested in this past offseason when he was a free agent. Hillenbrand has seen his role reduced as Casey Kotchman emerged as a legitimate corner-infield power threat. The Yankees will eventually get Doug Mientkiewicz back from wrist surgery. Source: New York Post And this accomplishes what, exactly?
KingPK Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 (edited) That the Yankees get another unlikeable asshole on the roster? He was having a decent year in Toronto last year before that blowup that got his ass thrown off the roster. Edited June 19, 2007 by KingPK
TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe Posted June 19, 2007 Report Posted June 19, 2007 In that case he would be better suited returning to Fenway then.
