8. Watchin' baseball...
and knitting my little fingers to the bone. My team seems to do better when the needles are clicking. Every year I've gotta do something to keep myself busy during games...one year it was Boggle. Another, it was Gameboy Tetris. This year, it's knitting.

I'm on my third sweater.

:P

:hi:

2. Nine pitches
Eight swings.



I love it when the last strike of the game is a punch-out. :D

9. Or when it ends on a
double play that was turned like a dream. Punch-out might...*might*...be better, though.

Might.

:D

14. Tenth
Edited on Sat Jul-07-07 12:46 AM by Oeditpus Rex
Martin K, Kent BB, Ethier FO Kent 3-6; 6-3 DP.

Now the Big Question is, will Saito pitch another inning?

:eyes:

Answer: No. It's Tomko.

Last time this happened, he gave up three runs and we lost.

17. They had first and third on two walks
Then suckered us with a safety squeeze.

I'd be mad, but that was just real good baseball.

Okay, I am mad at Little for putting in Tomko in a situation like this.

Bottom of the 10th comin' up.

19. True
Especially when a win puts you back into a tie for first.

Two out, 3-2...

Abreu walks.

25. Because it's fun to tell me.
And you can tell me before I can see it on Gameday, so that's kinda like getting even for those games that I spoiled for you.

:P

29. That's two nights in a row
that both Sandy Eggo and the Snakes lost and we could've gone back into a tie for first while leaving Arizona a couple of games back.

:grr:

:grr:

32. You see My Barrett starting to settle in?
And what's Bowen doing?

Nada.

I think he might've gotten his first hit tonight.

24. He's good...
no arguing with that. Cordero leads both leagues, though. And Borowski leads Putz in the AL. I'm more familiar with Cordero and Borowski than I am with Putz...but he's good.

27. It's a carry over habit
from trying to make deadlines. Mousing around is time consuming! :rofl: :spray:

28. That, it is
I've had trouble with control keys sticking on me, though. And there's absolutely nothing worse than hitting ctrl s and then seeing nothing but a lower-case 's' show up on your screen.

ARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

34. Or two up, two down, walk, walk, strikeout?
Billy Koch style. That is, when he actually got the save.

36. Y'know...when it comes right down to it...
as long as we're ahead when the last out is recorded, I ain't terribly picky. I'll take 'em however I can get 'em.

:P
