Looks like we got a slugfest brewing tonight in Colorado.

Slugfest for the Rockies, sludgefest for the Bucs.

Shouldn't be much of a problem for the Buck o's. Colorado has some hurt players and their pitching sucks. Glad to see the bucks having the best record in MLB.

I had to stop, too. I might try it again next season, but I will make no more series threads in 2013...

We need this one today, putting my 88 vcash on the line

 

[sychmd]

not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, but our bench today is
marte, martin, mercer, harrison, and gabby.
a pretty nice bench.

hopefully we get an all-star game from locke and dont need the bench except to PH for locke in the 7/8th inning.

How can the home plate umpire, the man with the worst view of the play, make that balk call?

And why can't the Pirates appeal to a base umpire who may have had a better view?

That was a terrible call. How bad has MLB umpiring become? Seriously. That was as basic a call as it gets if you ask me. Just terrible.

Exactly. This just burns me up. He was in the worst position to make that call. Total BS

Ya the phantom balk was the winning run...

I guess we were bound to have a crappy road trip after the deadline, lets just not let it become a terrible trip.
