Another loss to the Padres!! Ugh we are 1-5 against those guys this yr! Lousy base running and even worse hitting = a 4-2 loss. And the Phils won, so its back to being 3 gms out.
Dodger 6, Cards 9... I wonder if Clydegirl knows Dodgers are catching up, she's prolly chasing her child around... LOL We are definitely keeping Mr. Bay he's 2/4 again tonight...
Here's that clip of the wall ball if you guys haven't seen it.... what a weird one.
My son came by tonight, he had seen the play on ESPN highlights last night. Thanks for posting it SWEET-C...yep...2 tough losses and yet we scored a lot against those CARDS
SWEET-C an easy one for you today.
Saw thae Padres game Razz...knew you weren't liking it.
The evil bullpen blows the lead again, which seems to happen every time Santana starts. He leaves winning 3-1, but the Padres end up tying it with 1 in the 8th and in 1 the 9th. But David Wright hit a 2 run walkoff HR to win it in the bot of the 9th, so all's well that ends well I guess .
The Fish beat the Phils, so we are back to being 2 back of the Phils and 1.5 back of the Fish, with those Fish now coming to Shea for 3 gms.
I see Manny hit another HR, that deal seems to be working out pretty well for everyone.
Manny was booed every time he got up to the plate.
He hit a foul ball and ran to first base and took his sweet time getting back to home plate. They were really booing him then.
Was it like that when he played for the Red Sox with opposing teams?
That's the stuff we in Boston called MbM (Manny being Manny)... not running it out to 1st... Instead he runs only when he thinks he has to. He 'moseys' around a lot... that stuff is minor. One time there were 2outs and he is MIA from his position, the manager looking out asking bench coach where he is... The story was that he went inside the green monster to 'relieve himself'...LOL It was funny and accepted here for a long time, but was getting really old this season, so we paid the Dodgers 7 million dollars to take him away Do not get me wrong he is an awesome hitter, hard worker... but a little crazy... welcome to Mannyworld... OK i'm done...
I'm game-less tonight... watchin LL semi's Mass vs New Hampshire...
