Game 162 - Open Thread
by jch24 on Sep 28, 2011 7:39 PM EDT
Email
PrintWith the 2011 Reds season mercifully over, we as baseball fans turn our attention to the tighter-than-a-nun's-WHOAWHOAWHOA Wild Card races. As of right this minute the Phillies and Braves are tied 1-1 in the 2nd inning, The Cardinals will play the Astros in 30 minutes or so, the Yankees lead the Devil Rays 1-0 in the first inning, and the Red Sox-Orioles game is scoreless in the second inning. If you're interested in watching, here's the channels (in Cincinnati anyway):
ESPN: Red Sox-Orioles
ESPN2: Phillies-Braves
All of the games are available on ESPN3 if you have it.
ESPN2 will pick up the end of the Cardinals-Astros once the Braves game ends.
Talk about whatever you'd like within reason, and ask yourself - Which fan would you rather see in 2 days?
or:
via 2.media.sportspickle.cvcdn.com
That's what I thought. Go Braves, Astros, Orioles, and Devil Rays!

I don’t think Maya Rudolph is carrying her weight but she isn’t terrible.

no way
Dan Johnson was hitting about .100 and OPSing about .330 when he came to bat.
Alonso? I’d say more like Paul Janish, but even Janish didn’t hit that poorly.

I just sat through 15 minutes of highlights without moving much
Wow.
As a young boy, I dreamed of being a baseball.
Was at Camden Yards
Wow!
About half of the 30,000 or so were Sox fans. My favorite part (other than the end) was during the rain delay. That’s when the Rays put up 6 against the Yankees. When it went up on the board, many of the Sox fans didn’t believe it. They thought it was some kind of joke. Entitled bastards.
to be fair
It was pretty difficult to believe. Even the Rays fans had a hard time believing it. The Rays are not a come from behind team. They’re not a high-scoring team. They are built on pitching and defense, not offense.
