Hey, I've got faith.
I’m hoping we’ve got more on the way. ;)
I think the bottom of the 7th could be big. We need LNP to get on base to lead it off. But first we need Baker to get out of this inning.

I hear this Granderson guy is having some trouble facing lefties.

yeah, i heard something about that too.
isn’t he like, not even able to drink or something too?
"Baseball doesn't owe me a thing. I owe my whole life to baseball." -Kirby Puckett
Granderson did not have a good year overall...
Unfortunately, seems like he forgets that when he plays us
good move
in bringing in mijares to face granderson
Oh god...

Did u c the look from Mijares to marsh??
And now Darling once again looks like an idiot “He has a very strict strike zone and i thinks hes been very consistent tonight” (Talking about Marsh)

Angel Hernandez or Randy Marsh?

I thought Granderson had trouble hitting lefties?
you people lead me wrong!
"Baseball doesn't owe me a thing. I owe my whole life to baseball." -Kirby Puckett
he does!
They even move him to the 7 spot when a lefty starts.
Damn statistics…
at least pronounce his name right

seriously.
do they ever watch baseball? Jesus.

in his defense, he did get squeezed
would have ended the inning.

Holy crap it seems really loud in there tonight
On TV it’s just a constant, unrelenting roar.
Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?
Punto's a baseball player
filed under John Madden like utterances from an announcer. Yes, I understand he’s trying to be cute by saying he’s a “player” but still
