    A triple works better than a squeeze:)

    Mikey, the offensive juggernaut.

    He's had two 3-0 counts already to go with a hit, a run and an RBI.\

    Oh, and he's pitching a heck of a game to boot.

    Well, Bourn just handled that inside pitch well enough. He's still gotta learn to lay off some of those that are way inside.

    It seems like every time I criticize Bourn, he ends up doing something good his next time up.

    How about a Kepp double here...

    Try the reverse psychology thing with Kepp, you should say he can't hit himself out of a paper bag.

    I heard Arias got clobbered by a ball throwing with Wandy before the game. They said he was down for a while and left with concussion-like symptoms.

    Over/Under on Quintero walks this season: 2.5

    Edit: As I clicked Sumbit, Q gets hit by a pitch. That's about as common as walks for him...

    An inning ago, Q picked a ball up from behind Wilson.

    Now, Fulchino catches a bullet while falling off the mound.

    As I'm typing this, Kepp makes a dazzling leap and catch...

    What's next?

    :D There would definitely be some funny/interesting conversation...

    Did you see the first name on that list of birthdays?

    Pu Songling from the 1600s... some Chinese poet or something.

    At least his name wasn't Pu Dangling.

    Sorry, I had to...

    Saw Mike Hampton at Loggias in Sugarland last night after midnight. He was with some smoking hot broad and a couple of meatheads that I guess was the muscle for his entourage. He looked pretty out of it haha but hey, he's pitched 2 back to back solid games and doesnt have to pitch again for 4 more days so I guess he deserves to party

    Does anyone know where I can listen to the game online? Milo is gonna interview my dad during the 3rd inning, but I am in Cali.

    no, he is a doctor at Methodist, but he is doing a quick interview during the 3rd inning. He was supposed to throw out the first pitch too but he is letting one of his patients do it instead.
