Is it possible that the appearance of the squirrel is not entirely accidental chance?

Hummel: Hentgen on Carp and Halladay
Offline
"It's really cool," Hentgen said by telephone from Michigan. "It's going to be an old-school classic."
Hentgen said that because he was employed by a major league team, he wasn't permitted to pick a favorite. But he did know how the game would be decided.
"There's going to be two outs, two strikes and one of them's going to be one strike from getting out of an inning and there will be a seeing-eye ground ball that will be the difference in the game," he said.
"You're going to see the managers bunting early in the game and moving runners over because one run could be it."
Gotta wonder whether reading this might reshape Tony's decision tree and, if so, whether we'll see bonsai or "Banzai!".

We're starting early with the Gamecrap today. Good sign. We all need to be focused.

With all due respect to Pat Hentgen, I hope Halladay gets lit up for about six runs in the first inning and the Cardinals cruise to a 14-2 win.

Looks like Schu for Jay in CF and Punto at 2B

Max, I don't know if you're watching Brewers/Diamondbacks, but the brunette in the front row, above the left-handed batter's box, yellow shirt.

Dammit, Freese looks like he's junior varsity.

have I said FREESE IS A BUM?

He may get lazy at times blocking balls, but Molina still has a rocket for an arm.

Is it just me or has Berkman gotten old in this series?

That might've been a gut punch leaving the bases loaded. They needed another run. Not liking their odds here.
Offline
Oh my God. That is a tough line up--Pujols, Berkman, and Holliday, and only one base to put them on. Hats off to Halladay, that was outstanding.
Offline
Fuck. Not only don't we score, but Carp already on fumes and had to run the bases. Don't like this at all.

WHAT A FUCKING PLAY!!!!!!

dropped third strike. is that how we'll come unglued?
Offline
I'm going out on a limb and saying Theriot doesn't make that play.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Offline
No way that doesn't come back to haunt them. Son of a BITCH, Molina.

i'm glad they didn't show the replay on that third out. it looked too close.

Oh my god can they PLEASE get another run.
