FREE KRAUT! 
here’s hoping you didn’t have to spend TOO much time cleaning
… unfortunately, it does not seem like Dana Eveland is working. Not yet, at least.
he’s taking the SB off the table. smart.
Both of those looked like HRs off the bat.. I’ll take it.
no tv, but I’m assuming both Cust and Branyan?
I’ll take that trade.
Branyan and Lopez, but it’s Lopez so I should have known better.
whoa….
dude…
dude. ryan. what.
Is that a good thing?
Did you SEE his catch?
AND he just doubled. What.
Yes, I did. But the weird timezone thing has me confused. I thought something weird might have happened two hours ago.
Oh, gotcha. I suppose FK is on Pacific time for everybody. That makes sense.
how did you know about that?!?
Oh, you know.
another blown save for Fuentes, Angles lose 10-9. His era is 7.88.
I like it when baseball is fun to watch.
Crosby always hits triples with the bases loaded.
Whoa….. I’ve never called anything before… Like I said, Go me!
You should be a scout!
big crooked number! woooooooooooooo!
WHAT?! Crosby?!?
oh my. croz?!
What kind of alternate universe is this?
Chavez realized it’s over for him, so he gave Crosby his talent.
but, if anything, Crosby is even LESS Mexican
I don’t know, but I LIKE IT!
Can we stay here forever? kthx.
can we go back there now?
Dear Mariners: keep swinging like that.
Dana, stop that.
This commercial right here – I always think the guy on the couch is a girl.
“right here” our time or your time?
Your time.
Obviously Patterson botched the DP ball, but could a non-Crosby 3B have handled any of those hits to the left side?
He bobbled one in the second I think that was sort of tough but should have been an error.
See, that’s what happens when you just throw it down the middle to endy.
Where were you on that one, Ryan?
Good thing we didn’t try to sign Branyan because he’s left handed…
1. I need to figure out how to get firefox to auto-refresh this page.
2. Eveland … ugh.
now extra ugh.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Well, that’s two home runs… I’m guessing his FIP will not be very impressive after tonight.
Eveland will soon be hanging out with me in Sacramento.
Giese? Eeesh.
I dont like him because I dont know how to pronounce his name.
I want Komine back.
if they get another Hawaiian i want BJ Penn, that way we’ll win any brawls.
Unless they fight Canadian teams.
lol very true
Don’t worry! Crosby will save us!
i didnt think he was allowed to walk?
especially on a slider down and away…
ah, he who giveth taketh away.
not his fault though, probably.
The last walk of Crosby’s I remember was against the Dodgers.
that was a fun game.
Is it wrong of me to hate Ichiro because he hits like he’s playing girl’s fast pitch softball?
No. No, it’s not.
I’ve heard he also cheats at Scrabble and uses all the towels in the motel bathroom.
What’s wrong with using all the towels in the motel bathroom? I consider it a public service. If I don’t use them all, the poor sap who stays in the room after me can’t be guaranteed a full set of fresh towels.
Cheating at Scrabble on the other hand should be considered a lower-case, err, a capital offense.
Patterson at 2b….no.
Patterson … no.
there, fixed.
Thank you. I thought there was a typo in my post lol.
So what have I missed
Ryan Sweeney being awesome. Dana Eveland sucking.
Why, Dana, why?!
YES!@
McGwire and his sabotage can suck it.
Holliday hits a HR in a real ballpark!
Okay, that’s better. Yay scouts!
Who knew Rainman was a scout?
Dustin Hoffman called the HR?
HOLLIDAY.
That is all.
Apparently I underestimated Giese. I’m okay with that.
Just don’t send him back out there, please. Let him quit while he’s ahead.
What, you don’t want to see another walk-off HR?
My mom bought me about 20 boxes of razors when I went to college in 2000, and I only recently ran out; bought some cheap ones and I bloody myself every time. Tried to think of some sort of A’s analogy for that story, but I couldn’t.
Yes, I’ll take some more Sean White.
Wow, looks like I’m going to lose that gog question about the Suzukis.
Wow. That was an ass load of suck.
“xbhaskarx geren”
I was in the other room, what did he do this time?
Had (maybe) Buck bunt. Popped it up. Jennifer described it well.
ScannersHeadExplodes.gif
Patterson will get a hit.
Come on!
HEY. Didn’t I say no more Giese?
Sigh.
don’t like Giese going more than 7 outs. History indicates that bad things happen.
Mariners are bad against the slowball.
I stand corrected. Again. Giese is a rock star. (Just don’t let him pitch *another* inning.)
I’ve been watching this game thinking that it was 8-7 A’s since the last time we scored. Oops.
sobs
Damn. Giambi and Holliday K on fastballs down the fricken middle. lame
That was painful
Jerry! Jerry!
Ugh…. this is really stupid.
I agree.
heart attack
I love this scenario.
… as much as I love banging my head against a wall.
fun
I disremember you. Good times.
Yeah.
A-Rod would have had that.
Kareem Abdul Jabaar wouldn’t have had that!
I’m about to stroke out!
too many pitches.
Just need one more strike.
It’s a mirscle he hasn’t wa… you know.
FUCK!
F that game. F it right in it’s A.
