I still can't believe the Mariners got a year like this out of Aardsma.

 

Wonder what they're doing that we didn't.

Playin 19 games against the A's.

Did everyone see the Ernie Harwell tribute last night? That was pretty touching. The man has an incurable form of cancer and is one of the biggest legends in the history of broadcasting. That would've been so cool to be there in person.

Nine consecutive seasons for Mark Buehrle with 10 or more wins, 30 or more starts, and 200 or more innings. In this day and age where pitchers are coddled, that's pretty impressive. A real testament to his durability.

No doubt, Buehrle is one of the most underated pitchers in the leaguge, I love the speed with which he pitches, he doesnt pause for 3 days before throwing the ball.

[Keeper]

Yeah, I like that about him, too. Definitely keeps his defense on their toes.

[yankees228]

Pretty important game going on in Minnesota. Tigers leading by one in the sixth. Verlander pitching well.

[jacksonianmarch]

5 runs in the 8th, the Twins are up by 4. If they sweep tomorrow, then they'll be down by 1 game with a dozen or so to play.

The real Brad Penny showed up yesterday at the worst of times for the Giants.

 

He gave up 7 ER and 3 bombs in 2.2 IP.

[Dojji]

Pretty interesting Cubs-Cardinals game tonight. We just had what could have been a walkoff RBI groundout called back because Matt Holliday interfered with the second baseman in his efforts to turn the double play.

[yankees228]

Edwin Jackson looking really good tonight.

[redsoxrules]

Edwin Jackson looking really good tonight.

 

Meh.. he was a bit lucky , A lot of hard hit balls at fielders

OK, well, I wasn't watching, just following online.

[Cocos Disciples]

Braves are up 6-4 over Washington. If they win, they're 3 GB of Colorado in the WC. Seems like a long shot, but they play Florida and Washington at home to end the season, while Colorado has two more against St. Louis, then home against Milwaukee and at Los Angeles.

 

And of course the Twins and Tigers have a big 4 game series this week in Detroit

[Cocos Disciples]

Rockies lost, so the Braves are down 2.5 and 2 in the loss column. Twins and Tigers both won.

[The_Destroyah]

I believe the Dodgers and the Cards both clinched tonight.

[Keeper]

I love Ozzie's rants, even if I can only understand 1 out of every 3 words.

[Cocos Disciples]

Braves won 6-3 in 10. They're down 2, and Colorado is losing 3-2 in the 4th.

 

Twins and Tigers are both losing late.

[Dojji]

Rangas lose. Number is 2.

[Cocos Disciples]

Rockies hold on. Lead back to 2.5.

[yankees228]

Looks like there is a good chance the Tigers Twins game is going to be postponed.

rain?

[redsoxrules]

rain?

 

No

 

Snow

[yankees228]

Blackburn really doesn't look good, but somehow he's only given up one run.

[Cocos Disciples]

Runner on 3rd and 1 out for the Twins in a tied game in the 9th, and Punto bunts into a DP. Wow.

 

EDIT: The Twins overcome their 9th inning stupidity to score 2 in the 10th. Lyon's two wild pitches didn't hurt.

[msubulldogs21]

Twins take a 3-1 lead to the bottom of the 10th. Thanks Lyon...

[Youk Of The Nation]

The Tigers better win at least two of these games.

[msubulldogs21]

The Tigers better win at least two of these games.

 

Well, at least Verlander is going tonight. If he loses... panic.

[yankees228]

Why are you guys Tigers' fans? Does it have to do with who the Yankees face in the ALCS?

[yankees228]

Verlander looks sharp early.

[Cocos Disciples]

I guess I'd rather the Tigers win because the Yankees would steamroll the Twins, but I really I just want an interesting baseball weekend, so I'm rooting for the Twins to take 3/4.
