A beautiful day, my wife no likey that I'm looking at the TV (and computer) instead of helping in the garden.

I hope Cervelli has a great personal opening day.

Nice grab, Curtis. Welcome back, Gazoo Brains!

3 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 1:20 pm

Another Jeter at bat, another Jeter ground out ...

4 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 1:31 pm

Not a good beginning for Nova at all.

Everything's up.

5 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 1:35 pm

What a couple of horseshit hits for the Jays.

6 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 1:44 pm

Ah, Paulie ...

7 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 1:55 pm

Lovely pitch out Nova, just fucking fantastic.

8 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 2:05 pm

[7] At least it didn't hit the bull.

9 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:07 pm

BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAINS!

10 The Hawk   ~  May 1, 2011 2:08 pm

I agree with Michael Kay!

11 The Hawk   ~  May 1, 2011 2:09 pm

Many a wise man has asked: What is the point of Brett Gardner?

12 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:11 pm

Well, Thompson figured that one wrong.

Meh.

13 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 2:11 pm

Fucking wonderful.

14 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:11 pm

[11] Sounds a pretty stupid question for an alleged "wise man" ...

15 Alex Belth   ~  May 1, 2011 2:17 pm

Nova looking okay...

16 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:21 pm

[15] So, Alex, are game chatters going to display the way they do now when the site changes?

17 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:23 pm

Damn, unlucky bounce for Cano.

18 The Hawk   ~  May 1, 2011 2:24 pm

[14] I think you mean "wise men". Thanks for the insight though

19 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 2:30 pm

Did Cano even tag him?

20 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:30 pm

Damn, *lucky* bounce for Cano.

Sweet tag!

BRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAINS!

21 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 2:30 pm

Finally, we got him.

22 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:33 pm

[18] No need for thanks, I help out when I can ...

23 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 2:37 pm

Wheels Posada. Nice.

24 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 2:38 pm

A Jorge hit!

25 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:38 pm

JoPoNoSlo!

26 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 2:38 pm

Drag. Bunt. For. The. Love. Of. Mo.

27 The Hawk   ~  May 1, 2011 2:39 pm

If Gardner gets on, it would be spectacular if they waste another out bunting him over.

28 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 2:40 pm

Or that. Now it's the ol' Run Brett Run!

29 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 2:45 pm

Ha ha!

30 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 2:49 pm

GRANDYMAN!

Oh, baby!!!

31 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 2:49 pm

Or you have a Grandy homerun. Much better than an intentional pickoff.

32 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 2:49 pm

Hells Yeah. Atta boy, Curtis!

33 Alex Belth   ~  May 1, 2011 2:58 pm

Okay, Ivan, two big outs here.

34 Alex Belth   ~  May 1, 2011 3:00 pm

Okay, he gets Rivera out to start the sixth, whiffs him on three pitches. Then leaves a fastball up and gives up a double. Falls behind Cooper, 3-0 and I'm not happy...c'mon, kid. Then spots a fastball for a strike, gets Cooper to foul one off then pops him up to left. Nice!

35 Chyll Will   ~  May 1, 2011 3:00 pm

Took me eight minutes to log in, wtf... anyway, I'm following on Gameday and I had absolutely no doubt Grandy would hit it out. Those subtle changes he and Long worked out are still tickin'... btw, has Jeter completely gone back to his old stance or is he still stuck in between his and Long's?

36 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 3:02 pm

SuperNova. Now let the damn kid go 7 and have someone at the ready.

37 Alex Belth   ~  May 1, 2011 3:03 pm

And another pop up gets him out of it.

Well, done young man.

38 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 3:03 pm

Real nice game from Nova.

39 Alex Belth   ~  May 1, 2011 3:05 pm

Alex is slumping a little...

40 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:06 pm

i turned the game on while gritner was at-bat. was impressed jorgie was on 2nd! what a treat to see gritner's line drive and grandyman's blast. then the kid get thru the 6th.

41 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 3:09 pm

Man, JoPo can't buy a lucky bounce

42 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:14 pm

well, that matches nova's career high in innings. let's put that in the rear view mirror, kid!

43 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:16 pm

ah. walk.

but seattle just tied up their game!

44 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 3:16 pm

Meh.

Lousy time for a walk.

45 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:16 pm

alright. good job, kid!

46 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 3:17 pm

So Nova's a 6.1 innings pitcher.

47 Dimelo   ~  May 1, 2011 3:19 pm

[46] Sign me up for that all the time.

48 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 3:20 pm

Not bad for someone who didn't know where his fastball was going to land most of the day.

49 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 3:29 pm

Alright Logan, don't fuck this up.

50 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 3:30 pm

HA! Nice one.

51 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:31 pm

blow-gan with the luck o' the irish!

52 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 3:31 pm

Looky what Boone found!

53 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:37 pm

cool. now steal!

54 ed   ~  May 1, 2011 3:39 pm

I feel like Gardner's going to come around and have a good rest of the season. Salary considerations aside, if today you could trade him straight-up for Carl Crawford, do you do it?

55 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:39 pm

a middle relief pitcher wearing #44. huh.

56 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:40 pm

bollocks.

57 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 3:41 pm

Not even fucking close. Put Montero in left. ; )

58 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:45 pm

good hustle, jete. but, goddamn, you look awful at the dish... : (

59 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:54 pm

nice fucking catch, gritner.

60 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:57 pm

4-pitch walk to david cooper. who the fuck is david cooper???

61 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 3:58 pm

sori just lowered his era a lot - down to 6.57

62 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 4:03 pm

Hmmm. Cano pinch hit for?

Hopefully it's just a minor ding.

63 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:03 pm

boomer wells & ron darling are pretty good.

a-rod...not so much.

64 Just Fair   ~  May 1, 2011 4:04 pm

Oh, for the love of Mo. It better not be too serious with Robbie.

65 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:04 pm

wow. word press really sucks.

wouldn't let me post a comment, said i had to sign in. only thing is, i was already signed in! bollocks.

66 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 4:06 pm

Ruh roh, Cano.

[65] WP signs me out all the time.

67 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:06 pm

yay, mariano!

what a treat it is for me to get to see him work!!! : )

68 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:07 pm

isn't this the first inning Cano isn't on the field, this season?

i really hope he's alright...

69 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:07 pm

[66] me, too. but they never sign me out while i'm still signed in! they'll just flat out log me out. this was different...

70 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 4:08 pm

[66] Weird, it never does that to me.

What browser are you using?

71 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:09 pm

that was lovely.

i love you, Mo!!!

72 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 4:10 pm

[70] Firefox.

Alright, nice win.

73 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:10 pm

i use firefox.

74 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 4:12 pm

Weird.

So do I.

I've never had it log me out.

What version?

75 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 4:15 pm

Currently 4.0.1, though it's happened with various 3.x versions. All on Windows XP.

76 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:16 pm

shit sox won at home in the bottom of the 9th.

i hate the friggin' fens...

77 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:17 pm

78 cult of basebaal   ~  May 1, 2011 4:17 pm

Odd, I'm running XP, too.

3.5.19

Oh, well, that's just weird.

79 thelarmis   ~  May 1, 2011 4:38 pm

from brian heyman at lohud:

robbie's got a bruised hand. day to day.

80 rbj   ~  May 1, 2011 4:43 pm

[79] He probably needs a day off anyway.

81 Raf   ~  May 1, 2011 8:45 pm
