I predict EE will hit two grand slams and we'll win 8-7.

in one at bat?
Cause that would be some kind of record.

so for you all that have kids
Dan Gutman writes this book Casey Back at Bat. Basically he hits the ball so hard that it goes all the way around the world and back to an outfielder so he pops out. It’s very good and the illustrations are well done.

That's offensive to home runs
Someday the small ball oligarchy will be put to the sword. And that, comrades, will be a glorious day.
Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?

Homeruns are selfish and bourgeois
Some day the proletariat will take over and baseball will be controlled by only sacrifice bunts and times will be glorious

Quite the opposite
Home runs are grand gestures that appeal to the soul of the common man – farm hand and factory laborer alike. Small ball is the finical pet of the leisured and intellectual classes. Admired by the elite for its obscure and fanciful value.

I guess that’s why I like Home Runs! WOOOOOOOO!

yes and no
home runs have been around since the beginnning of baseball and yes you may be able to have your teammates score in the right situations. Also, peasants are traditionally conservative. However, a home run improves your batting avg, SLG, RBI, and runs which may lead to you being paid more money in this oppressive mercantile economy. A sacrifice while not hurting your average, gives yourself an out. You are sacrificing yourself for the betterment of your team.

home runs used to be outs
because they played games without walls and if you hit it too far you were considered a dick.

They're we go, they're we go
“sacrificing yourself for the betterment of your team”
more like the betterment of the industrial bourgeoisie and capitalist paymasters. No no, my misguided comrade. The home run asks nothing of your sacrifice, but only for the realization of your strengths and labors!

So...how many innings is Bray gonna pitch?
I didn’t think he was our long man

Dusty's from the Joe Morgan school
by which I mean he has no idea who Bray is

this might be more Dustyness
Bray was just called up, therefore he’s the “last” pitcher on the staff, therefore he’s the long reliever. And centerfielders batted leadoff and we liked it!

I was thinking more
He looked at his stat line, saw he hadn’t pitched an inning this year, and figured he was well rested.

12:30 all is quiet on the RR front
boobs you missed;
Reds Losing
Crolfer umped a winner
sMarty and tHomboy feuding on the air – passionately
Dunner doing his best Mayor Mallory imitation
Corey doing his best Geo. G. partial lobotomy imitation
Dusty continuing in the Joe Morgan ‘right way to play the game’ tradition
J. Quest looked more like J. Fogg
Bill Bray does exist – the antiClog doesn’t quite know how to use him
An interesting (?) mix of unkowns dropping by the RR thread and grumping around grousing despite:
Slyde telling them; Hi my name is Slyd, I am an RR addict & I live in my mom’s basement
Man Mountain foretelling of a time when the oligarchial Small Ball Regime will be put to the sword
