In Smoltz's final 6 starts' date=' he had an 0.64 ERA during the first 2 innings.[/quote']

 

Interesting. I did not notice.

 

Still, lol.

[Dojji]

One of those beautiful curveballs would look good right now.

[ms_sox]

Clay's looking good to me...especially the results.

 

Is Wake still supposed to come back soon?

[Dojji]

Ehh, looks like Overbay laid off a good pitch there. Buchholz isn't missing by much.

[KPKahder]

hey ump' date=' did the corner move again?[/quote']

 

hahaha.. I said almost the same thing last inning.. I asked my dog (kid is asleep...lol).. "Wouldn't you love to know where this umps strike zone is"?"

[suns]

Come on buch!!

[BSN07]

C'mon Buchholz, don't lose it now

[Dojji]

Fight out of this Clay.

 

getting sick of all the 3-0 counts.

[ORS]

KP is fine.. thanx .. I'll try not to ask too many stupid questions.. One I do have though' date=' is when a pitcher is called for a "balk" - at what point in the windup is it considered a balk ? does a foot have to leave the mound?[/quote']

It's a balk if you start toward home, like you are going to throw a pitch, and then don't continue the motion and complete the pitch. It's also a balk if you don't come to a complete rest in the stretch windup with a runner on.

[suns]

Damn it!

[schillingouttheks]

Damage control, Buchholz. Don't give up another run.

[BSN07]

s***

[ManRam]

And we're off.

[ORS]

BBBBBBuchholz.

[a700hitter]

DP on a change up would be nice.

[Spudboy]

f***!

 

3-1.

[Jasonbay44]

Come on Buchholz..

[Dojji]

First pitch strikes.

 

Throw them.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Son of a f***. I hope this ump gets twisted nuts.

[schillingouttheks]

STOP THROWING BALL 1 BEFORE STRIKE 1.

[suns]

Nice K.

[BSN07]

Big K

[schillingouttheks]

What a FILTHY pitch for the K. Way to sack up, Clay. Get the last out and let's get back up to the plate.

[Dipre]

Nasty.

[Dojji]

Nicely done, Buck.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

First pitch strikes.

 

Throw them.

 

STOP THROWING BALL 1 BEFORE STRIKE 1.

 

That.

[schillingouttheks]

Starts off with Ball 1 again. JfC.

[Dojji]

Stoppit, Clay

[ORS]

They aren't chasing the neck high stuff, so let's bag that, mm'kay?

[suns]

Strike...throw em.
