Not according to MLB.

We scored in the bot of the first, they scored in the top of the second.
We scored in the bottom of the third, they scored in the top of the forth.
We scored in the bottom of the fifth, SDI in the top of the sixth.

You are so right. I need a larger screen on my laptop, I guess! (Or new eyes)

Btw...

For you lurkers/occasional posters...

How weird are we for this MILK tradition we have on this board? It is SOOO entrenched on this board, but I wonder if it does not confuse non-regs...

I'm mainly a lurker here. I spend most of time on the Niners board. Fwiw I have no problem with this MILK tradition.

Was this originally a gp thing? I can't even remember how it started.

Meanwhile, AZ has started the season 2-8.



It's early…blah, blah,blah…

But they look like a team that's going to score a lot of runs and hit a lot of homers.

They also look like a team that's going to give up way more runs than they can score.

I'd be mighty worried about the starting pitching if I were a D-Backs fan.

Question: who will have the uglier year in left field, Morse or Trumbo?

Only negative so far is Pence seems in a deep freeze. Also, Hicks may not be the answer at 2b, that throw was AWFUL.

Still, 6-2 bitches!!

Can we just play the D-Backs all year? That would be nice. After the Giants and Dodgers, the NL West doesn't look good.

I think Colorado may finally have some pitching, they won't challenge but I can seem them winning 80-82 games maybe.

In response to the above gif, Cal responded thusly.



I believe that is the genesis of "Milk" on the board. tzill has recently taken it to a whole new level. Or is that 2%?

I don't recall a direct reference to it here, but I always thought the "milk" thing came from auto racing where the winners now always drink milk so as not to associate driving and drinking alcohol.

No Stokes is right on, we started joking that Emma Watson looks like she's milking a cow in that clip. Also there was the one of Sarah Michelle Gellar doing a kind of handjob motion which also could be seen as one-hand 'milking'

It's gross, but, it works.

From 06-06-2011, first reference I can find to "Milk".

Will keep looking.

GP's favorite was Raptor Jesus:

Damn, I miss this gif.

WE'd demand that gp use it more often, but in 2012 it was reserved for only "special" wins.

Well, there's a first time for everything, I guess!
