Gabe Kapler's tears...

cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried.

Ever,

or, Ever.

Oh my

Mayhaps Kapler will replace Braun as the player who ~~broke~~ owns my heart

Gah!

I was going to go with a much more palatable game thread image.

"I will agree that the attitude [at BCB] is ridiculous and they have done so much to instigate animosity and then block us from responding. Real mature!"

I was thinking the Beatles Abbey Road or one of the many knock offs.

Sgt Peppers is a much cooler cover

I was thinking of guys on the crosswalk to go with all the walks.

by ol Pete on Aug 10, 2008 5:40 PM CDT up 0 recs

That's be

Abbey Road.

by Wayfaerer on Aug 10, 2008 5:41 PM CDT up 0 recs

Maybe post...

3 and 1/4 copies of it? It was 13 walks, right?

by Wayfaerer on Aug 10, 2008 5:42 PM CDT up 0 recs

You mean,

like this?

Or this?

I miss the VW bugs I have owned looking at that.

Ah,

the inventive ways to devalue a tube sock.

by Wayfaerer on Aug 10, 2008 5:45 PM CDT up 0 recs

Devalue?

Do you know what one of those would fetch on the ebay?

Depends

whether the seller includes the price of the biohazard container

by Wayfaerer on Aug 10, 2008 5:51 PM CDT up 0 recs

Weird

Gameday has the video of every run-scoring play except for Rivera’s double. No respect!

Obscure baseball records and more at my blog, Recondite Baseball.

It's because

you can’t read his jersey and they’re pretty sure he’s not Jason Kendall.

Those MLB.com guys are easily confused.

You’ll see it listed tomorrow as ‘That 3-run double that guy hit’

by Wayfaerer on Aug 10, 2008 5:44 PM CDT up 0 recs

May have caught a break

Jake Peavy is not listed in the frequently changing probable pitchers for the upcoming series. He came out after about an hour rain delay his last start.

by ol Pete on Aug 10, 2008 5:46 PM CDT 0 recs

What a game!

Rarely do you get so many chances against a team after seemingly ending the game three or four times. Wow. This one we should’ve lost, but hell, I’ll take it!

i just noticed

it looks like it’s a little flaccid.
we need to get the fangraph a more attractive girlfriend.

Oh, so I'm not enough now huh?

I think that it’s just cause I didn’t tune in until the end.

Perfect

The game lasted the exact length of my drive from Green Bay to Chicago. Yes traffic was bad.

Cubs game

Lou looks like he either needs a “highball” or has already had one.

Man.. Joe Morgan makes me appreciate the Rock. That’s saying something.

by SgtClueLs on Aug 10, 2008 7:30 PM CDT up 0 recs

I like Jon Miller, but yeah, Joe is not the best. Then I was thinking of trying the radio and listening to Ron Santo… and I left the TV sound on.

by ol Pete on Aug 10, 2008 7:35 PM CDT up 0 recs

If Ludwicks throw was on line probably had ARam.

by SgtClueLs on Aug 10, 2008 7:42 PM CDT up 0 recs

Joe Morgan makes me appreciate my blessings

He just… makes me correct him everytime I listen to him. “I think La Russa is the only manager that bat his pitcher 8th.” Oh wait, Joe, didn’t Ned Yost do that for a few months? Thanks for being observant, Joe. What’s that, Joe? Ryan Dempster is the best hitting pitcher ever?

Pittsburgh did it at least for a while I believe

by ol Pete on Aug 10, 2008 7:58 PM CDT up 0 recs

Awful

That’s more like it.

My non-embarrassing thoughts on the Brewers:

Edmonds

Nice grab.. Robbed 2 runs probably.

he is torturing his old team

Wow nice dig and tag by DLee.

by SgtClueLs on Aug 10, 2008 8:36 PM CDT up 0 recs

I thought it was a bad call at first.

by ol Pete on Aug 10, 2008 8:41 PM CDT up 0 recs

ESPN Research

on their game. The first bullet in the box says that we swept the Nats (there is another game tomorrow) and the third bullet says the Nats won 6 of their last 7 before today even though we beat them Friday and Saturday.

Carpenter looks good but not great

Dempster never seems to throw strikes.

by ol Pete on Aug 10, 2008 8:45 PM CDT 0 recs

Yeah

All things considered, doing well. Looks to be laboring pretty bad in the 6th around mid 60 pitches.

by SgtClueLs on Aug 10, 2008 8:46 PM CDT up 0 recs

And no pulled, wonder if it’s precautionary again like last time.

by SgtClueLs on Aug 10, 2008 8:49 PM CDT up 0 recs

I like the Cubs fans booing him as he leaves with an injury. And for some reason they don’t understand why people don’t like them.

I wish MLB had postgame video like the NFL does, because Tony would be fun to watch.
