    I almost forgot about Light's Out time... he hasn't pitched in AGES!... seemingly back when they didn't even have lights to be turned out.

    (honestly... his last outing was last SUNDAY for 7 pitches...)

    Good job by Wheeler.

    Ya know, some of the guys in our bullpen remind me of Doc Wingate.

    I have a question:

    When someone hits a foul ball, how come sometimes its a strike and sometimes its not?

    You can't strike out on a foul.

    Its a strike until you have 2 strikes... otherwise, you could strike out on a foul ball... and that only happens in slow-pitch softball.

    Tavarez is a proven cheater... just look at that hat.

    I have a feeling that Lidge is coming in here no matter what... just like Smoltz did for Atlanta in the tie game.

    What do you mean it's always a strike. BUt when there is 2 strikes then they don't strike you out cause you tipped it.

    It's always a strike. However you cannot strikeout on a foul ball unless it's a bunt.

    We tagged him for some runs last night....so lets see if we can do that as well. He made all the comments before the season so lets shut him up

    Ok, so if we go to extra innings...

    Which team has the advantage? I'd have to go with the Cards due to their bullpen.

    The home team always has the advantage... but we may have the bullpen one as long as Lidge is in there.
