    He gapped one. Bases clearing triple.

    Biggest lead of the game.

    Way to go, Onhell.

    That was Onhellicious!

    clears the bases with a triple! Sanchez has been a nice surprise so far.

    If Norris learns a 12-6 curve and use his change a little more, he can be really good



    HE WAS SAFE!!!!!!

    lol... Lee tries to stretch for a triple. Seemed like he had plenty of time. He did hustle but to no avail.

    either you, brownie, and jd, or brad mills pronounces his name wrong. still don't know which is right.

    also, mills refers to things as "special" at an annoying rate.


    maybe caballo should go back to being lazy?

    Not that it matters, but it's embarrassing that umpires are still that inept after all these years. Very few umpires have the skill to actually look for the tag. The vast majority, including whoever is on third tonight, simply see whether the ball beats the runner to the bag, then assume the out. Pathetic, because Lee was clearly safe.

    My umpiring gripes aside... what a fun game to watch. :)

    Ump called Lee out because it was Lee running and figured there was no way he was making that a triple :grin:

    lol...

    I heard it was like Ahnhell early on... not sure though.

    Yea, in addition to "that's special," he says "that was big" a lot, too.

    Never make the 3rd out at 3rd base. Even if it was a bad call.

    CJ flashing the leather on a hard hit ball from Pujols. Nice.

    Norris gives up a HR, single, walk with 2 outs and bases empty.

    One swing of the bat can make this game interesting again.

    C'mon, Bud... get out of this.

    that's pretty strange if Mills pronounces his name incorrectly.

    ha...Brad "The Church Lady" Mills

    Pence with a similar diving catch to the one he made yesterday helps Bud get out of the inning. I'm sure that's all for Bud tonight.

    How does he say it?

    I believe I've heard him mispronounce other names. Can't remember which though.

    I believe Angel is always pronounced Ahnhell in Spanish.
