Inside-the-park homer!

[Oeditpus Rex]

Blake DeWitt puts the Dodgers up 5-4. :woohoo:

This is a kid who, before this season, had a year and a half in A-ball and half a season at Double-A Jacksonville. The only reason he's even in the show is the Dodgers started the season with three third basemen on the DL.

He's hitting .321. :D

[KitchenWitch]

1. oh for COOOOOOOL!

:D

[Reverend_Smitty]

2. This game has been friggen insane...

Inside the park homers, a 41 year old man with bum legs stealing home and despite both starters not making it very far in this game, it's only a 5-4 game. I blame the Clenis for the craziness tonight

[Oeditpus Rex]

3. Yeah, and 1:28 to play the first three

And it was only 4-3.

The Dragon throws 80 pitches in 3 1/3. Figgy throws 104 in five.



That's baseball. :shrug:

[Reverend_Smitty]

4. For series!!!!11!1 It's like a Yankees-Red Sox game

Good thing I don't have to be up early tomorrow

[Oeditpus Rex]

8. The difference being

this is Major League baseball. :D

[Reverend_Smitty]

13. lol..silly American League...It so wishes it could be real baseball

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. Wouldn't be that hard

All it has to do is get rid of that tenth player and those 22-ounce bats. :D

[reyd reid reed]

5. That'd be fine...hell, that'd even be FUN....

if they ever played a day game at home.

Sheesh.

[Oeditpus Rex]

7. They're playin' a nooner tomorrow

Getaway day for the Mets.

[reyd reid reed]

9. YAY!!!!!!

:bounce::bounce::bounce:

Heh...wouldn'tcha know it...tomorrow my game starts at 10:35.

I have a 10:30 appointment. I've seen a grand total of one (1) game in the past 10 days, I think.

x(

[Oeditpus Rex]

12. You'll get no sympathy from me

I've seen the Dodgers twice this season, and one of those was on Faux. x(

[reyd reid reed]

15. Yeah, but....but....

I get grumpy.

I don't get to listen, either.

[Oeditpus Rex]

16. You'd be better off dumping Extra Innings

and getting XM.



You'd save money, too.



:popcorn:

[reyd reid reed]

17. I still wouldn't be able to listen to it.

An appointment is an appointment...and ball games on the radio are generally frowned on.

Besides....I like my Extra Innings. When I'm home to watch it.

[Oeditpus Rex]

18. Point being

you can listen to radio a lotta places where you can't watch teevee.

[reyd reid reed]

19. True...

but I'm not usually in those places.


Except, I should add...the past two weeks.

x(

[Oeditpus Rex]

20. What places are you usually in?

:shrug:

[reyd reid reed]

21. Home.

Or work. That's 'bout it.

Talk about your thrill-a-minute life. S'okay, though. Excitement is waaaaaaaay overrated.

[Oeditpus Rex]

22. I just realized you prolly couldn't listen at work, anyway

Dunno if they'd let you, but regardless, XM needs southern exposure for the antenna, and you prolly don't have that in a big ol' newsroom.

[reyd reid reed]

23. Oh, southern exposure we got...

one side faces south. Granted, it's the news side, but hey...

I wouldn't be able to listen at work, though. Sometimes the Rockies are on...even the Cubs every once in a while if they're on WGN...but never with sound. I think the volume got turned up a little bit for a few minutes in the 6th game (?) of the NLCS back in 2003...but then it got turned back down again.

Not even October baseball.

[Oeditpus Rex]

24. Suits are shitheads that way

At the Flea Ranch, we had CNN until they had the cable stopped. Even when we offered to kick in for it, they wouldn't do it.

A newsroom without 24-hour news? :wtf:


Prolly had something to do with "Springer Break." Jerry Springer was on one of the SF stations at noon back then, and about half the place would be eating lunch in the conference room and watching. :D

[Richard Steele]

6. Wow! How often does that happen these days?

I'm not the biggest baseball fan, to be sure...but
I watch as many games as the next guy. And I can't
remember ever seeing an I-T-P-HR in a Major League game.

[Oeditpus Rex]

11. Two or three times a year, maybe

Many universal elements must line up in a certain way to allow it. In this case, an outfielder fell down.

Last one for the Dodgers was in 2003.

10. so much fun !! good for him ..

:woohoo:
