That makes McCann 0 for 2 on the Lasik thing.

McCann's pressing so hard he could swallow charcoal and shit diamonds...Johann struck him out to end the inning and you could hear the "FUCK!!!!!" in every seat in the stadium.

how many times do you see it, a catcher takes a foul ball to the nards and leads off the next inning with a clutch single

I switched to the game during a "Lost" commercial just in time to see that -- OWWWWWW.

Dusty Baker is such a fxxking moron. He couldn't have handled the ninth any freaking worse.

Well, I just registered for the SABR convention, so unless my life goes south before I can go South I'll be in ATL in early August. Mets are in town when I arrive.

Chavez/Venters/Kimbrel deserve the game ball as much as Conrad.

hahaha, fuck you. I don't care about junk stats, but if I were Hudson and was having a totally dominating game like this one, I'd want a chance to finish it.

One thing I love about him is that he uses bubble gum instead of tobacco.
Tough, tough luck for Kawakami.

what's next beyond the golden sombrero?
― mookieproof, Saturday, 5 June 2010 05:02 (thirteen years ago) link
The "Olympic Rings" or platinum sombrero applies to a player striking out five times in a game,[1] while a horn (after Sam Horn of the Baltimore Orioles, who accomplished the feat in an extra-inning game in 1991) or titanium sombrero is bestowed upon a player who strikes out six times in a single game.[2]

Brooks Conrad's really making the most out of his limited playing time this year.

~~SHOCKED~~ the chris resop call-up didn't pay immediate results!
― Bastards of Young Dro, Wednesday, 16 June 2010 04:03 (thirteen years ago) link
so Heyward is now at .259 /.378 /.473 . Nice season. Not an All-Star starter rookie season.
― kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 23 June 2010 11:53 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, he shouldn't be a starter.

I agree. He's K-ing his way into not deserving to be on the team at all.

J-Hey to DL (thumb), no All-Star Game.

oh for fuck's sake
The Braves have traded shortstop Yunel Escobar and minor-league pitcher Jo-Jo Reyes to the Toronto Blue Jays in a five-player deal that nets shortstop Alex Gonzalez.
Gonzalez, 33, is in the midst of one of his finest offensive seasons.
The Braves also got left-handed minor-league pitcher Tim Collins and minor-league shortstop Tyler Pastornicky.
Gonzalez entered the All-Star break with a .259 batting average, 17 home runs, 25 doubles and 50 RBIs. Gonzalez currently ranks tied for fifth in the American League with 43 extra-base hits.
“This trade improves our club for the second half of the season,” Executive Vice President and General Manager Frank Wren said. “We have been looking at ways to strengthen our club offensively and Alex Gonzalez is a proven veteran player who gives us added power. He is a winner and a solid offensive presence in the lineup as well as a quality defensive shortstop.”

i gotta look up the prospects involved before i pass judgment though
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 14 July 2010 16:35 (thirteen years ago) link
apparently Yunel has a bit of an attitude problem?
― my cock is a spiral ham (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 14 July 2010 16:36 (thirteen years ago) link
Collins is good - has "future closer" written all over his ass.
yunel is one of the best defensive shortstops in the game and isn't really a worse hitter than gonzalez
