Freese did the same damned thing.

They waited and worked counts all night to great success, and then in a spot to blow it open they swing at the first pitch they see.

Theriot has the baseball IQ of Joe !@#$ing Thurston.

I hate him.

Shit.

Oh shit here we go with pitching changes.

Rzep coming in.

Westbrook, Motte, and Rhodes left in the pen. Gotta figure Boggs is the last option after yesterday.

I do hate him, but I can't hate him as much after those two doubles earlier in the game.

I never wanna see Boggs again. NEVER

Does anyone read Uni Watch? They'll probably splooge when they see Dotel's socks.

Scrabble just scares the shit out of me.

Shit
Tony I hope you didn't **** this up

Boggs is warming up.

Someone kill me now.

Tony's hoping to go Scrabble, Boggs to start off the eighth, then Rhodes, then Motte.

Scurry.

Wow Scurry for sure.

If Rollins runs, Yadi will hose him at 2nd. I hope.

FFS throw a strike here , don't go 3-2

YES!!

Thank you very much.

Holy shit. Rollins picked off.

Rollins you dumbass! How did that peice of shit ever win an MVP?

Ok, get ready for three pitchers in the eighth.

Rzep vs. Utley
Boggs vs. Pence
Rhodes vs. Howard

and hopefully Motte for the 9th from there.

We really need a run or two. Damn playoff baseball is so exciting.

Great AB by Jay.

**** you, Tony Bastard.

There's nothing like playoff baseball. Nothing.

Normally don't like giving up the out, but Descalso really struggles against LHP.

Good job Dannny D. Damn it we need that run at 2nd.

Their really isn't. While I love the NFL playoffs I think NBA and MLB having series is just so much more exciting.

Shit balls

Bringing in a starter here. Very, very interesting move.

And a rookie one at that

Must... not... put.... game.... on....

If this is true I will need a few shots of patron to get my nerves thru that.

Don't do it man, it's not worth it to us.

Only Philly fans would cheer that

Damn it I thought he hit that a little better than that.

He just missed that.

Tony's gonna play the matchups. He realizes he has Westbrook and Jackson in the pen should the game get extended.

Just prepare yourself for it and pace in between every pitch, like I do. I think I've walked 4-5 miles during this game.

Was my thinking as well.

Just keep guys off base and lets finish this out

Check.

Good Lord.

Like I said, Scrabble scares the shit out of me. Dude is just straight ass.

Need more shots

Way to turn into it you ****.

Check.

Oh God not Boggs n
This is gonna end badly

Well......Come on Pence I know your a good human being but die like a dog.

WTF dude, you think they planned to let carp get 4 runs in 4 innings?

I wouldn't want Westbrook starting against Philly. He leaves way too many mistakes up in the zone for a groundball pitcher. Philly would eat him up.

Boggs should throw nothing but gas here.

There's the trifecta.

I hate that about baseball, dont even try to slide into the base, just take out the guys legs.

3-3.

A double-play ball to go 4-4 would sure be nice.

that was good baseball though...like it or not, that was a good, clean slide

That's why you stomp the mother****er's nuts.

No doubt, I just don't like it.. I'm with Hamas, I'd fall with my elbow in his balls.

I'm cheering for the Cardinals for my roommates (a diehard)...I have a bad feeling about Motte, though. I doubt his mental toughness, I really do. I know he had a great stretch this year but I don't know if he'll handle this atmosphere well.

Lol... He went right over the base. That was good, clean, old-fashioned baseball.

If there's no double play, who is the quinella?

I think Eduardo Sanchez is your guy...I assume he's on the playoff roster, right?

Actually he went quite a bit outside the base. Watch the replay.

as in...I'd trust that guy most in the 9th. His stuff is dirty.

Still perfectly legal. Not even a borderline slide.

Nice. He'll keep him in against Ibanez.

STAY DOWN, BITCH!

Motte for the 4 out save.

*buzzer*

Motte for the 4 out save.

I wasn't saying it wasn't legal, just that I don't like it. If it was a cards player doing it, i still don't like it.

He's not, and I agree with you about Motte. He doesn't have a secondary pitch that can make guys miss. A lot of guys can foul pitches off to induce a walk against him.

Then your and idiot.

Btw, I agree on Sanchez.

He has earned a shot and he been great with rest. Also their biggest threats are already past.

And I am scared shitless.

He's got tommorrow off. Can still close on Tuesday if needed.

I forgot Victorino hits fifth, not Ibanez. That's on me.

LMAO

Same here.

I know he was on the 60 day DL...but they left him off the roster?!?!

Holy shit that dude is sick! Time to fake an injury for Rzepczynski and get him on the roster! That's crazy to me.

Nice run, regardless.

As you should be. :)

If he could just develop a good not great slider or changeup he could be a dominate closer.

Good work, Jason, Good work.

Sir Glovington got it done!
