I’d be afraid of choking on that thing.

to Fan Asphyxiation Day?

If Andy LaRoche doesn’t cut off Morgan’s throw…I’m not sure it EVER makes it to Doumit. And Morgan was in SHALLOW left field for the original throw. It was losing that much speed and altitude when it was cut off.

Or has this place turned into a ghost town?

Doumit’s arm is better than Morgan’s…got Bourn stealing.

now pitching for the Pirates.

for Doumit…Bourn and Pence.

Pearce’s ball would have been gone.

just cracked a cold beverage in the booth, wonder what it was…

what the difference is between a “tryout” and an “audition”? According to John Russell, there is a difference (in talking about 2009 spring training)

smashed some clubhouse furniture after the game so that the team will be fired up enough tomorrow to win.
