Springer leads off the bottom half of the first inning with another dinger.

All Springer Dingers are equal but Leadoff Springer Dingers are more equal than others.

Anytime you score and still have 27 outs left, it's a good thing.

Stop walking people. That's starting to piss me off.

Has there been any discussion about Brianna's...merits?

She reminds me of Yvette...

Even though she has a nasally whiny voice she is an attractive woman.

I was thinking a couple of weeks ago that the Astros have a knack for filling that job with profundities.

Correa sends one out of the park quickly.

I thought Correa hit that off the handle when I first saw it.

NeilT · « **Reply #12 on:** June 13, 2017, 08:20:47 pm »

Doesn't that give Springer the major league record for lead off homers?

MusicMan · « **Reply #20 on:** June 13, 2017, 08:38:56 pm »

Peacock has recorded about 7 outs in the 5th.

That was some kind of bullshit. And ball 4 was a strike as well. Peacock got jobbed.

I think I read his lips in the dugout as saying fucking piece of shit. I'm assuming that is towards CB.

I would assume. He was absolutely pounding the ball into his glove.

The former president's box is behind me. I'm sure he'd be here but for the slight inconvenience of finding himself in federal detention in the US. I'm sure his sons would be there if not for an Interpol red alert issued.

Luhnow had better start getting busy as soon as this draft is over, because this pen is not good right now.

toddthebod · « **Reply #34 on:** June 13, 2017, 09:49:40 pm »

Truly. Is there anyone here who had any confidence in Gregerson when he came in?

MusicMan · « **Reply #35 on:** June 13, 2017, 09:50:33 pm »

A blind drunken mime would call a better game than Bucknor.

Yes. The road hitting is much better than the home hitting this year.

Seriously, they need to throw some purpose pitches to back that motherfucking genetic offspring of a cockroach mated with a pubic hair off the plate.

And above all, they need to stop letting him hit bombs. He's a fucking .210 hitter who plays shitty defense. He is not a good baseball player, except against the Astros he appears to be Robinson motherfucking Cano for some goddamned reason.

This times a million. When desperately needed, the amazing offense has been fucking horrific.

Martinez had an ERA closer to 5 than 4 today, and the offense did DICK against him other than a few homers with nobody on. Fucking pathetic.

Bucknor was at third last night. How did he figure in so much? Did he miss several appeals or what?

He at least missed one that would have ended an inning for Peacock if I remember correctly. It was the only appeal I remember so he was batting .1000. Of course, we don't notice the umps when they get things right.

The appeal his missed was an absolutely putrid missed call. Choo went 3/4 around, then held the bat PAST THE HALF WAY MARK to try and persuade fuckstick he didn't swing. Several foul balls later, he took ball 4 and walked in a run with 2 outs.

It looked to me like the home plate umpire was about to ring him up without an appeal, then decided "oh hell, I'll let CB confirm it". Whoops.
