Cedeno... DH... again. That's just embarrassing. I would have more confidence in Brett Wallace, with one hand tied behind his back, facing any pitcher, left-handed or otherwise, than Ronny F'ing Cedeno.

But, fuck it, it is good to see a new GameZone thread.

Quadrupling. Ambriz has been recalled and is once again in the bullpen...

Is anyone at the game tonight?  I'm sure MMPUS is packed with Mariners fans doing that weird shit they do.

Not nice of Barnes to try and hit those Mariners fans in the Conoco pump area.

Mariners fans. They go to their games - most likely on public transportation - they drink good beer and they eat good food. Bunch of goddamn fairies.

Fields ain't looking too good. I don't see a third strike pitch and very questionable command.

I wonder if there has ever before been a game where a team collected 16 or more hits, had a player hit for the cycle, and lost? Probably, but I bet not many.

That's because they weren't playing the Mariners.

I think the Mariners saw something in Fields' delivery because it appeared that they were not swinging at his curveball out of his hand. Whether Fields was tipping his curve ball or the Mariners were just sitting dead red, he was not very effective, again. I've about had enough of these gadamn Mariner fuckers and their shrewed ways.
