The Anaheim/Cleveland game in Milwaukee last night had a higher attendance than 4 other games...

Honest-to-god web gem by the Jeter against the Twins tonight.

Going out on a flare by (I think) Punto, he basket-catches it in shallow left over his shoulder without appearing to look, then immediately wheels around and doubles the runner off of second.

Dodgers had 1st and 2nd , 2 outs ......they did a double steal as hirsh stood on the mound staring at catcher , he just held onto the ball

next pitch with 2nd and 3rd nomar gets a 2 rbi single

Felix Hernandez is just disgusting. Not much else to say about it.

Felix Hernandez pitched a hell of a game last night, but you wouldn't know it, since some japanese pitcher pitched against a japanese hitter gave up 8 hits to other guys only struck out four and lost the game.

Man, the coverage of that game was nauseatingly one sided even after the damn thing was over

Seems to me a lot of media coverage is on Hernandez

i think before and during the game it was all about Matsuzaka and Ichiro and all that nonsense, but afterwards, the focus (rightly) shifted towards Hernandez. He was throwing 97 with movement in the 9th inning. It was ridiculous.

what i saw this morning (my experienc eonly) was a lot of talk about Matsuzaka and his first home start and him facing Ichiro...they mentioned hernandez, but it wasn't as prominent...dude pitched a one freaking hitter complete game.

The best part was listening to skip bayless talk about it...

During the game, they went a whole half-inning when Hernandez was pitching talking about Matsuzaka and Ichiro! and so forth without once getting distracted by the 1-2-3 inning.

This kind of premeditated story is so typical of ESPN. It reminds me of Cole's first start last week when Ravech et al broke into whatever game they were broadcasting that night to update the Braves/Phillies game, and proceeded to talk about how dominant Hudson was in the first start of his (ESPN-ordained) "bounce-back" season, without mentioning that he was getting outpitched by Hamels.

im not even going to try to describe the bonehead mistake by crawford on the bases....you got to see it

by **jemagee** » Thu Apr 12, 2007 22:40:22

saw the replay, quite funny it was two separate mistaks and will make sports centers "bottom 10" on friday
oh yeah...moreneau leads off the ninth with game winning solo shot...
whoops crawford

of course the guy im playing in my money league has nathan

instead of runs and maybe an L

he gets a win

by **FTN** » Thu Apr 12, 2007 23:08:17

In my in depth league, Nathan is my only closer, but we count holds, and I have 7 or 8 good cheap holds guys. I sometimes win the week with only Nathan as my closer, but I sure could have used a save tonight or last night when they blew it open in the 8th.

Carlos Zambrano had a good 4 inning , 4 scoreless, 2 for 2 double, homer

and then faces 7 reds in the 5th without getting an out
