Moronta for 1st half team MVP!

 

[Stokes1931]

That's three outs!

Moronta!

Both of those kids were international amature signees. Bodes well for this years class...

 

[LHG]

very close to a double play. panda moving well...

Yet I wonder, if he was in better shape, does he get two?

 

[Stokes1931]

RM now 8-29 with IR

 

[SFGRTB]

Good point but the announcers said it's where the ball hits the player (either fair or foul) that counts in this situation.

The logic in the rule is just off to me

 

[LHG]

I'll ignore the fact that is the Cowboys.

He is in the best shape of his life. At some point you just have to accept reality.

Ditto.

 

[LHG]

Ugh, Mitel! Awful phone system.

 

[SFGRTB]

I'll ignore the fact that is the Cowboys.

It was at the top of my 'fuck yeah' folder, which I haven't used lately

Reason #4783 why the save stat sucks...

Moronta did not earn a save for that.

He earned a portion of Bum's paycheck, though

It’s nice to be on the other side of a bases loaded, no outs, no runs scored situation.

Just the word alone shows how poor of a stat it is. The word connotes keeping the win in the hands of the team with the lead, not getting the last out of a win.

 

[calsnowskier]

Who is this pitcher? He is quite boring...

That's right, it does happen to other teams, occasionally.

 

[Stokes1931]

1st and 2nd, no outs, how are we going to screw this up?
