RE: the lousy hitting pitchers discussion. Found these quotes from Jason Bergmann
(6-for-89, .067 BA).




"I was facing John Smoltz in 2007. They made me take the first pitch for strike one. Then I swung at two sliders -- or splitters. I can't tell you what they were.

"All I know is, I saw the ball for one second, I didn't see it the next second and I swung over it twice. I walked back to the bench and said to [St. Claire], 'There's no amount of batting practice I could take to prepare me for that.'"

LOL! Atleast he got a few hits.

 

[gp956]

He was out

 

[SFGRTB]

That was a beautiful turn, too bad they couldn't get 2.

 

[ColinCoby]

Man, thought we had him at first.

 

[SFGRTB]

Nasty, that is all.

 

[gp956]

beautiful sequence there

 

[ColinCoby]

Ump has a bit of Leslie Nielsen in him.

 

[gp956]

Sanchez is really dealing tonight

As I said, best game of 2010

If he wins this one 1-0 you have to give him credit for some mental toughness.

Got to work on that....

"Surely you can't be serious?"

"I am serious. And don't call me Shirley."

 

[msgkings322]

Crickets on the ESPN board. Not even Tito is saying anything with Chez dealing. No one excited, no one hoping. What the fuck.

 

[SFGRTB]

Hmmm...

"Surely you can't be serious?"

"I am serious. And don't call me Shirley."

"I just wanted to let you know, we're all counting on you."

You got to have some decent posters to make a message board work.

Most of them have left.

Tough call...no pinch hit for Chez? Lots of pitches thrown, but he is en fuego.

Who said baseball isn't exciting?

I'm actually shocked there aren't more "EZ ALL GOOD!!" threads.

You saying this reminds me of what was being talked about on KNBR yesterday. I'll make a thread about it.
