I was looking for a verse in Micah that could be his baseball battle cry but
the best I could come up with was this, “Your hand will be lifted up in triumph over your enemies,and all your foes will be destroyed.”.
That works.

Poor kitty
I’ve seen cats on the field before, and a lot of grounds people chasing them around and looking silly, but I’ve never seen them pick a cat up by the tail. They pick them up like you normally pick up a cat. And they don’t put them in the stands, they hand them to someone in the dugout who takes them outside.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
The dude choked. He was being clawed and/or bitten.
He had the cat contained and didn’t know what to do with it. He took it to the stands which was stupid but I’m sure he hadn’t been properly trained on what to do in this situation. He tried to drop it in the stands so teh game could resume (that had to be all that was on his mind at this point) and the cat got back on the field. At this point he just grabbed it by its tail because he knew he could get the whole thing over with.
Poorly executed but ya gotta hand it to ’em… PLAY BALL!

So
The Reds already have six strikeouts through four innings. This last week has left me pretty pissed off at our coaching staff. Pole, Berry, Jacoby. Madville has more than enough irrational hatred for Speier. Hatcher gets a pass because of 1990.
I don't think Hatcher is nearly as bad at his job as the others are
Then again, what does a first base coach do? I like having him around because he seems to get along well with the players and for 1990.

Any possibility that Jacoby has the team taking more pitches???
Just wondering how long this run of BBs will continue? EdE and BP clogging up the bases to the tune of OBP 100+ pts better than BA, not to mention T-Virus at .400+ OBP (sample size’d) is not terribly exciting, but we wouldn’t have a winning record without it.

Scored a base hit?
Seriously?
We want to build long period of time. I didn’t come here for the shot run.
dumb question from a former ump
how does framing the pitch really work? i couldnt see where the catcher put the glove…only where the pitch crossed the plate.
"I've actually never had a drink before, tonight I might try it out. We'll see."
—Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw, on turning 21
its a sliding of the glove at the point of impact
back over the plate or positioning the glove just on the edge to quickly move the glove back
www.crosleyfieldterrace.wordpress.com
Actually
that’s pulling the pitch— which tends to pi** the ump off. Framing it is using the glove to do just that: make sure your glove is positioned so that the ball is closer to the strike zone. If the pitch is high, catch it with the glove on top; low, catch it from underneath; left of the plate (from the catcher/ump perspective), glove comes from the left. The tough one: with the pitch to the right, you’ve gotta’ essentially backhand the pitch.
Done properly, you don’t move the pitch at all. But the impression is the ball is in the strike zone, the glove is on the edge or black.
Does it work? Depends on the ump. It certainly doesn’t hurt.

that would be selfish
Dickerson instead decided to make an out, so his average would drop below .200, and he’d be on the Interstate like so many of his teammates.

well its nice to have a pitcher who can actually hit a little
so we put him up there to bunt…fucking genius

Looks like he has a lot better movement on his pitches today. I just started watching an inning ago though, how has he looked all game?
he's got movement usually
not filthy, but not straight.
