Also I have decided I hate Tulowitzki. In case people were keeping track.
He is on my list with David Wright and Shane Victorino. EDIT: Well you probably won't win if you give up 20 runs. |

I'm going to go get some more scotch.
I'm sure it will still be the 5th inning when I get back.
Not that it really matters since we fucked up about 20 times on that play, but that 3rd base tag call at the end of it all was BS, he was out.

ESPN stopped updating the game. Did they break the scoreboard?

They're probably trying to figure out how to score that fucking abortion of a run-down and just how many errors to hand out to the fucking Giants. I think Pill gets two AT LEAST.
I loved Miller's call of it. He clearly could not believe that was actually fucking happening. <3

Trying to decide which I hate more right now about the O's. The bullpen or the lack of clutch hitting. Having two nights of free baseball because you can't hit a fucking single is getting old fast.

From my experience with the Giants last season, you should definitely hate the lack of hitting. It is agonizing!
And apparently from my experience with the Giants THIS season, you should hate the shitty pitching more. It is agonizing!

Braves play the Brewers this weekend.
When I go on Sunday I'm bringing this sign, "When you absolutely, positively, get off on a technicality? Trust FEDEX."

Cubs blow their first two games late with their setup man and closer shitting the bed, then Samardzija takes a 4-1 lead 2 outs into the 8th before walking one then giving up a homer. Marmol comes in and almost blows another save, but finally closes it out.
Fuck me, it's going to be a long season. Lose 2 out of 3 to the Nats in the bullpen before going on to probably get blown the fuck out by the real teams.
You really are into self-abuse if you're still a Cubs fan. Cheer for the White Sox like sane Chicago fans do. |

Eww.  Actually, I have cheered for the Sox when they are good, but I don't have the built in nostalgia factor of Harry Carey with the Sox that I do with the Cubs. |

Welp, we went from getting shut out by the Mets to winning 10-8 against the Brewers. HERRO OFFENSE!

Sucks about Wilson's arm. Heard that on the radio this morning.  |

Yeah, it's too bad. I expect Romo to shave off his beard now, he'll look kind of goofy as the secondary beardo without Wilson around.
The good news is, our bullpen depth is pretty good and Heath Hembree and his 97 mph fastball (13+ K/9) are tuning up in Fresno.

Yeah, we're starting to come back to reality again after a rocky start. Matt Cain pitches well, and gets no run support!

You call it an accident. I call it justice.

Needs little red X's on the moving stuff and a lucky fan should be picked out to participate to play with that shooting gallery.  |

It's without a doubt the worst thing to happen to baseball since Shea Stadium.

I could only make it through a minute of that. Not a big incentive for season ticket holders. All 5 of them.

This take on it kinda amused me. But yeah, that thing. Hoo! I like to think that thing was built specifically to chase away the ghost of Buster Posey.

The Rangers are just insanely good right now. Their competition for the division was supposed to be the Angels and they're already 7 games up on them.

I think it's quite possible you have the worst team in baseball. The Padres are going to chase you for it, though. |

Thanks for beating the Mets, Giants. I don't like it when they get too big for their britches.

Roger Clemens, welcome to being fucked in the ass. Andy Pettite is getting ready to rock your judicial world.

Good times - glad Matusz might actually be getting his shit together since it looks like sometime between his physical and camp our hot new pitcher from Japan tore a ligament and is headed towards Tommy John surgery.

Wow. That's a pretty fucking huge backtrack, Andy. Now he's saying that it's 50/50 whether or not he "misremembered" the prior conversation with Clemens about HGH. |

Well, he was best friends with Clemens, so I suppose none of us should be surprised.

Braves win 15-13 in extras on a walkoff homer by Chipper Jones.
I don't really have the words for how awesomely ridiculous this game was.

Panda might be hurt too. Fuck you, Marlins!
Seriously, they're making a bid to be second place on my list of teams I hate in MLB. (No one will dislodge the Phillies.)
