7/8 @ Mariners

[Jasonbay44]

Ill take it... Tied game.

[wyo-sox]

Just wifi streaming to my PS3 or my Kindle Fire usually works great.

[Jasonbay44]

I don't have mlbtv but what wireless format does a PS3 run?

 

Its not really "wireless", but you don't need to plug the ethernet cable into the PS3, you can just connect to Wifi and watch it.

[CaliSoxFan04]

come on nap!

[Station 13]

Felix wants nothing to do with Papi there. Sometimes that isn't bad.

[Station 13]

f*** Napoli. Seriously Farrell need to go with a different option behind Ortiz.

[wyo-sox]

I'm about tired of Nap. Hit the stinking ball dude!

[Jasonbay44]

Napoli is slumping so badly right now, its extremely frustrating.

[Station 13]

Lester sucks.

[Jasonbay44]

f***ing Lester... smh

[CaliSoxFan04]

Lester just said no thanks to the offense for tying up the game

[CaliSoxFan04]

Ugh I get to see Lester pitch in oakland Saturday

[wyo-sox]

Shoot Lester, we could have kept Cook or Padillia for command like this.

[Station 13]

Find something else to do.

I just looked it up and the PS3 runs 802.11g. G should be plenty good for most purposes. Wi-Fi platforms are a little like processor speeds though. We keep pushing the edge of the envelope with the positioning of our routers vs wireless devices and how much we are trying to push across our networks. If I had my druthers and was relying on my PS3 I would prefer it to run 802.11N at this point for any streaming video which is as power hungry an application as there is. Edited July 9, 2013 by jung

If somebody asked me, I really could not even guess what the hell is going on in Lester's head. He picks and pocks with Sauders twice in a row, walking him with the bases loaded one time and goes after Ibanez twice in a row eventually getting tagged. I just don't have a clue any longer. Give me a hint Jon...anything....maybe a road map......

You know more about wifi than I do.

Yep. Gonna be tough to blame it on the locker room, his manager, or his catcher this time around. He's just pitching like garbage.

[Standing Room]

Xander's 2-3 tonight, JBJ's out of the lineup. He could be headed to Seattle to play for us tomorrow.

When pitchfx posts the strikes and balls after the game, I'm willing to bet Lester threw Saunders five strikes in that at bat where he walked him with the bases loaded.

Well one of them absolutely...positively was a strike. I know that. But I still don't get pitching as carefully as he was to Saunders. He did it the Saunders AB before that and in fact (although worth checking pitchfx for this one also) it looked like he got a break on a pitch in that AB.

The bases were loaded, you always need to pitch carefully with the bases loaded. He was making perfect pitches in the strike zone that were being called balls. As a starter, you can't just give in and start throwing pitches down the middle becuase the umpire's taking a nap.

Fail....

Wow...

By the way wyo I am sure the g chipset in the PS3 is not one of the top of the line g chipsets from one of the top brands making radio chipsets. Sony is just not going to do that and honestly I don't blame them. I am sure Sony looks at what most users are going to try to run over the PS3's and cuts it a little fine on the cost side of the equation.

 

Streaming video is far and way, at least today, the most difficult wireless application. You would fall prey to the fact that you would see every single error without error correction. Error correction is working full time to reshuffle the deck so that you don't actually see those errors on the screen. There is no such thing as a 0 bit error rate in wireless so the errors are there. The system is usually just working its tail off to keep you from seeing them or from being irritated by them. It is hard to catch everything real time though. With streaming video unless the chipset is really good and the system functioning optimally, hopefully with one of the better platforms in play (G being pretty darned good and N being real good) no matter how hard it works either you will notice or see the errors or be irritated by the buffering.

 

I usually recommend to my friends that they try to keep from positioning their routers so that they are on one side of the house with devices on the other side and the kitchen right in the signal path. Why the kitchen? Cause if you look at all the BS you have in your kitchen there is tons of metal crap everywhere, all of it causing your signal to be reflected all over the place. Wireless systems no longer need be line of sight but the state of the art in wireless technology, MIMO actually uses (in a sense combining them...easiest way for me to try to explain it) the reflections. Trust me.....it ain't in your house just yet. Certainly if it is there at all it is not there like it will be some day.

Sox give up 5 in 3 and this is your post? OK. I guess for a game thread....

[jung]

Boy did this game get out of hand in a hurry. I guess I am forever going to hate these west coast swings from hell.

[Station 13]

Really time to give lester a vacation and give Ranaudo the call. He is pitching like an ******* these days.

All things considered, I think that we will find that across his performance tonight Lester was NOT attacking the strike zone to the degree that he was the previous two starts in which I think he earned and deserved a better rate of success and that was my point. Are you trying to tell me that Jon does not try to get too fine on occasion. Heck his own Manager admits it!

[jung]

Boy I sure as heck hope we have Ells and Vic in the lineup by the time we hit Oakland. i don't want to see this outfield trying to run around in all that acreage. As bad as these west coast swings can sometimes be, usually Oakland turns out to be a whole nother' level of hell for us.
