World Series Game 4 @ Colorado, Let's fuckin' win it.

[Jabs]

That looked just like the curve that was called a ball. Inconsistent.

 

Tek didn't help Lester on that ball 4 pitch with the way he caught it (with the palm up). He caught that strike with the glove down.

21 defensive outs away

Whew!

Way to go Jon...more runs please.

You know, we hear about what a great sports town Denver is because of the passion of the fans, and for the most part I agree. They are nuts at Bronco games, and when the Av's were good that was a tough house to win on the road in the postseason. But, the fact that they need the organist to get them to start a "Let's go Rockies" (which they didn't sustain when the organ cut out) with runners on down by one with their backs against the wall has to kind of add a perspective point for those that try and quantify which towns are the best sports towns.

Not much of a baseball town yet. Give them 90 years or so.

Lugo...playing terrific defense? Ummmmm, OK.

Hockey came there about the same time baseball did.

silver, my youngest is now in bed. You can cross that one off your list.

I wish major league baseball would come here. I say California could give one away.

 

We'd have the Former Los Angeles Angels of Anahiem who now are the New Orleans Angels of Metairie Louisiana.

True, but the WCHA (college hockey) is huge in CO. Nothing much happening on the college baseball front in CO. I think pro hockey got a head start, plus the new franchise "borrowed" a lot of bigger name hockey players to get going than the Rockies got for baseball.

[a700hitter]

Lots of broken bats the last two nights

Done. Thanks.

I can't find any fault with his D in the WS.

 

He just makes my butt clench every time the ball is hit to him. Is that a bad thing? That throw to Ortiz earlier was a perfect example.

[silvercreekcc2006]

TedWilliams101 you need your boy to burn up some eggs!

Can't argue with the results so far, or for the season. He was bmuch better than I had expected.

I have no fear in him playing D.

 

Is everyone else concerned because of his size, or because of his lack of time at the base? So far he's proved himself in my eyes.

We're out of eggs. He burnt them all last night.

You think? I thought the expansion draft that brought on the Rocks and Marlins was heavily in favor of those two clubs. The Rocks were immediately relevant with the Blake St Bombers and the Marlins won the WS in like their 4th year.

I am doing my part. I have not moved from my position on the couch since game 4 of the ALCS.

I gave the dog the stiff-arm on my way to the john. She REALLY wants to lick me.

[Cocos Disciples]

Oopsies.

[silvercreekcc2006]

Oh boy. Thought ManRam had a chance at that one.

[Thumper]

Good hustle by Manny, was just a good pitch to hit.

[a700hitter]

Manny played that like a hand grenade.

[silvercreekcc2006]

Shut up McCarver! Superman couldn't have gotten to that ball. *******!

[Jabs]

Misplayed? I didn't really see a bad play there, but they didn't show the whole play. Matsui just hit it hard.

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

I like Jon Lester's stuff tonight despite that double
