The 7th Inning Stretch.
 

Here we are the start of the second half.

Still lots of baseball to be played.

Let's go Cardinals.

Red Sox Nation reporting in.

We're ready.

Papi suspended for 4 games

Lawyers.

We are playing the Reds in Cincy.

Hope we play better than the last time we were there.

Plus we need a pitcher. Anyone selling? Dodgers?

Go Yankees. Go Mets :)

According to my future (?) son in law...a Long Island resident....that above is not even possible.

Here .... GO DODGERS. GO ANGELS. is the norm.

One more with Rays then back into boxing ring in Baltimore.

Enjoy the games everyone
:corn:

Not a happy day...looks like my boys are about to lose again...

and oh my the USA girls game today was a heart breaker....

So who watched the Sox / Rays game last night?

Ya mean the whole sixteen innings - until 1:30 am?

With a score of 0-0 raging on?

Not me.

But, my thanks to Mr. Pedroia for winning it before time for my morning coffee, LOL.

How can we talk about baseball pitching when we can watch a pie being thrown at Murdoch in real time on TV?

How about those Pirates :)

Hi all! I didn't disappear JUST because the rockies are struggling. It's been a hectic summer.

Just wanted to drop in and say hi!

I continue to find it difficult to concentrate on baseball out on the field.

For example, today the news is that one Frank McCourt will not be allowed to leverage a team called Los Angeles Dodgers to pay out to attorneys, his ex (or soon to be ex) wife, and himself by selling the future of his team to a hedge fund.

What's the purpose of owning a Major League Baseball team if you can't bleed it to near death on occasion? Why bother being rich if you can't flaunt it?

We are playing the Pirates in Pittsburgh.

The place is packed tonight. It's good to see.

Just won the first game.

Super congrats to those PIRATES!! always a team I root for as long as it doesn't hurt me!

Amazing BILL...my owner wants to pay for all of his mistakes by borrowing (with no intention to pay back) money that the next 10 owners will have to pay back...

the clown outta run for congress!

Just got home from the game. Cards win 10-5.

I really hate the wave. I wish people would stop doing it!!!

BIG BIRD do you hate the wave more in the heat?...(stinkier armpits?)

Tried to give it away in the 9th yesterday...doing what we can to stay out of last.....

I think we needed another inning or two.

Baseball is frustrating.

Red Sox played 14 innings last night.

What is the etiquette for leaving a game before it's finished? I'm not much of a fan at 2:30 in the morning.

I have never left a game before it's finished.

Then again I've never been at a game that goes to 2.30 in the morning.

I hate it when fans start leaving in the 7th inning. It ain't over until the fat lady sings.

Doesn't matter how hot or cold.

It always seems to get going at a real crucial time in the game.

I wonder what the players think?

Well our bullpen is much improved after the trade yesterday.

I'm sure Rasmus and LaRussa are happier too.

Hideki Irabu dead...suicide....

sad...so freakin' sad....

there has been several jocks end their lives this way in the last few days...

sad

3 players injured tonight.

2 of our catchers and Punto who plays everywhere.

Congratulations to Albert Pujols 2,000 hits.

Against the Cubbies no less.

Good win tonight.

WE actually scored more runs last night than Lily gave up.....wow!

I saw Furcal at the airport.

Why are the Rockies trading Jimenez?

Sad to see him go BIG BIRD....he was a good one for us for a few years!

KURODA will not back down on his no trade clause....said he would rather be loyal to his team than be in the play-offs.....classy guy he has been since he put on the blue.

My son texted me that Jimenez came out in the first inning for the trade.

Went to the game tonight against the Cubs. We lost :(

Gary, Furcal got a great reception when he came up to pinch hit. Nice seeing him wearing the birds on the bat. I was hoping he would have started. Tomorrow for sure.

BIG BIRD you have a very good shortstop, offensive and defensive, if he can shake off those injuries he has had in recent years. When he was hurt earlier this year he talked of retirement...I hope he has several good years ahead for your birds.

So :o last night my son calls about babysitting the GRANDdaughter this week, during the conversation he asks me..."pops, you watchin' the game?"...."no son, who are they playing tonight?"..."the padres :D"

Pretty :( when I start looking more at who they played the night before than who they are going to play or even watching the game of the day....:(

Don't get me wrong....I am watching but that GRANDdaughter comes first! ;)

Of course she comes first. She's your first granddaughter.

Just think how much fun you will have when you take her to her first game :)

Great game last night against the Brewers.

Lots of emotion.

Baseball is still being played :)

Big series coming up with the Brewers.

It's awful quiet in here.

I only come here now to hear of those red teams happiness :carrot:...

as for me...it is still :(






I do hafta say I am still so very proud of my guys trying to stick together from all the divorce crap...and to have guys on our team like Kuroda that are just #1 in CLASS...so far removed from our :p owner :p
