Callin' Mc who?
Look at that ERA!
Omg Carter!
Good question. Was he even on the roster?
Presley with a show off catch.
Did he take away a HR? My stream froze at a critical moment.
That was funny, the way they were ragging on KK and he hits one out.
It was at the warning track, but got a big jump in to get it.
Raggin' on KK ought to be a national pastime.
Now 11.
4-0 Astros, top 7.
Thank you! That was positively Milo-esque. Only took 28 posts for someone to mention the score.
Dominguez to Blum, Mingo, to Pravata, Mongo.
You saying Matty D has mongoloid features, or habits, or smells?
Don't worry about us, someone should tell Ashby the score.
Spanish balloons? Mongo take chance...!
Where is Wesley Wright when you need him?
Matty D just pawn in Porter's game of life.
Carter delivers a hit! Wow!
Villar somehow got fooled, completely, by a 2-0 89 mph fastball down the middle, with the bases loaded.
A TUB of smoked gouda? I don't understand. There's a smoked gouda dip?
Yep. It was at Costco last time I went. There was a small line for the sample, and every person who sampled it picked up a tub.
Cano jerks a home run just foul before striking out on a curve. One down.
A good smoked gouda is my favorite dried sausage/cracker/mustard cheese. I'd buy tubs of it if I could.
Mariners have a moose for a mascot?
It might be Texas only, but hie thee to a Costco in search thereof.
Noted, and thanks! I'm 45 miles west on 71 from a Costco.
Hey, if you see Malcolm Young tell him we're pulling for him.
Seems to be a lot of mixed reports about Mal. The only consistent story is that he is not travelling too well.
WIN STREAK!
Sparks just rescinded the earlier award - JR Richards threw 15 in his debut.
Willie Mays at 1B looks strange. I think I saw that game on tv. This was obviously before the Astros made the Cincys very happy as Morgan, Geronimo and Menke all in the Astros lineup.
Especially since an unknown Jimmy Rosario was in CF. But that was at the end of Mays' career. I think that 1972 was his last year with the Gints. I think that he played for the steM in 1973 but was awful.
I really need to read that. I hope it changes how I feel about him, I'd like to be a fan again.
I read it, and liked itcularly. I remember being fascinated with his early life, just because the descriptions of growing up poor and black in the South were so well done. I vaguely remember that his participation in racial politics were a bit like Louis Armstrong's--he just wasn't as obvious as people wanted him to be. I don't remember any reason not to be a fan.
I posted my compliments on BG's recap on the wrong thread, then erased it and am reposting here. Now she'll never know what nice things I said about that fine recap.
which recap are you referring?
