Hes getting hit early

But judging from the gameday he is really painting the corners. Only one pitch so far off the black in 3 at bats if i am correct.

Dusty Baker said it was the first [triple play] he’d seen in person. When he was with the Dodgers, they hit into one, but he was in the bathroom.- C Trent

This whole balloon boy story has me distracted

How’s Leake lookin’?

Definitely a good argument.

by Slyde on Oct 15, 2009 3:47 PM EDT reply actions  

Back to back hits to begin the inning

then a line out and 2 Ks

cool

no kid in the balloon…must’ve fallen out somewhere.

Definitely a good argument.

Why the hell is that a big story?

Let me write out a formal proof for you.

by Gray on Oct 15, 2009 4:10 PM EDT up reply actions  

well

when they thought the kid was still in the balloon, “will they be able to save the kid?” was a big story. At this point, I don’t think it is much more than a sad story, but they’ve already committed to covering it.

Definitely a good argument.

by Slyde on Oct 15, 2009 4:14 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yeah, I guess.

Even still, there was nothing they could do even if he was in the balloon.

Let me write out a formal proof for you.

by Gray on Oct 15, 2009 4:16 PM EDT up reply actions  

but that's why it was dramatic

I’ll admit that having a kid made the story much more interesting to me. Especially since my house is surrounded by experimental balloons.

Definitely a good argument.

by Slyde on Oct 15, 2009 4:19 PM EDT up reply actions  

soft landing

But no kid.

Some talking head on CNN is saying there’s no way that balloon was big enough to lift off with a 50 pound kid in a basket.

OTOH, the kid’s only 6. Kinda hard to believe he would be able to hide so long just as a prank.

they found the boy in his home

i mean sometimes Walt is like a prison shower, you know it is gonna happen, but it isn’t a good thing.

I wonder

if he’s in trouble, or if they’re so happy he’s not dead he’ll escape punishment.

i'd fucking ground him for a month

apparently they took their kids with them to check out hurricanes and shit… They don’t seem to be the most responsible parents.

I wonder if it was a publicity stunt

the family has already been on Wife Swap and the kids have some sort of musical act. I bet this was staged.

Definitely a good argument.

by Slyde on Oct 15, 2009 8:55 PM EDT up reply actions  

if it was

They should take the kids away from them.

If it was a hoax, they hid the kid all day, because the cops were searching for him, just in case he wasn’t really on the balloon.

And they must have coached his brother to lie to the police, since I’m sure they interviewed him about what he saw.

Looks like you were right…

Boy hints he hid out in attic ‘for a show’

by BubbaFan on Oct 16, 2009 10:07 AM EDT up reply actions  

yeah, I saw that live

my TV was on CNN when I turned it on and I turned it on about 2 minutes before that kid said that. After he said that I turned it. I have little doubt this was a hoax.

Definitely a good argument.

Double Post!

Heisey leads off with a double.

Definitely a good argument.

by Slyde on Oct 15, 2009 3:51 PM EDT reply actions  

Single Post!

Cozart follows with a single, Heisey to third. No outs in the first.

Definitely a good argument.

by Slyde on Oct 15, 2009 3:51 PM EDT reply actions  

Heisey scores on a GIDP

some other team’s prospect ruined the inning.

Definitely a good argument.

Well the REDS are 3 for 3

stupid other teams.

Where does Leake normally sit with his fastball

Cause hes been pretty consistently 89 so far

Leake pulling a Neo in Arizona

allows a single, double, and a walk but doesn’t give up a run in the 2nd.

Definitely a good argument.

Boxy Brown in to pitch for Leake

2 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K is his final line

Don't mess aroun' with Boxy Brown

She’s the meanest chick in town.

Definitely a good argument.

Impressive AB by Chris Heisey, though he struck out.

First 8 pitches: 5 in the zone, 3 off the plate. He only swung at the 5 in the zone, then was called out looking at a changeup at the letters that could have been called a ball.

Keep your shit off my whimsy.

by PeteyHendrix on Oct 15, 2009 4:31 PM EDT reply actions  

Actually that was Cozart.

Thanks, GameDay. I can look like an ass without your assistance.

Boxberger is out (2 IP, 2 K, 1 H, 1 ER)

Logan Ondrusek is on to pitch. I’m guessing the Reds execs are at the game, which is why all of their pitchers are pitching today.

Definitely a good argument.

by Slyde on Oct 15, 2009 5:00 PM EDT reply actions  

Uh oh

Lurch gets two quick outs but gives up a dinger to Scott Sizemore to tie it. 2-2.

Yeah

He was a supplemental 1st rounder, and signed at the same time Leake did.

I wonder

If he and Leake both dont start the year at Sarasota with a June/July call up to Carolina if all goes well.

Shoot both of those guys could be pitching and GAB by end of 2011 and in the rotation 2012.

by backtocali on Oct 15, 2009 5:17 PM EDT up reply actions  

Ondrusek doesn't make it out of the inning

5 ER in 2 outs. Ouch.

Ha

We’ll make sure to rectify that when the AFL awards come out.
