Bird on the field

The boys in Sedona Red slugged it out with a pretty pesky poltergeist, then stayed on to dance the night away with some of the lovely ladies who witnessed the disturbance.

Don't blink; blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck!

The video of Micah’s homer is great.

You realize, of course

That the Doctor gets clocked in the face right after saying that.

Don't blink; blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck!

If this was the AL

Would Micha hit during his starts and a better defensive player get the start that would sit?

Turambar:

I believe Jupton had a hit his first time up.

Afternoon Game

This game is crazy. If more games are like this I gotta start going to more afternoon games.

Weird things happen

For example, the Cubs don’t win anything for a century….

Yup, but fortunately he doesn't have to face Santana.

In fact, we miss him completely during this stand.

Don't blink; blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck!

by Stile4aly on Apr 30, 2008 6:09 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Nope, Owings

Scheduled pitchers

Owings Friday, Webb Saturday and to be announced on Sunday. Haren, I think?

by Jim McLennan on Apr 30, 2008 6:12 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Haren faces Santana.

After the way we've

missed Brad Penny, Timcecum, and Matt Cain, you’d think our luck might continue….

by DbacksSkins on Apr 30, 2008 6:14 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Rats

For some reason I thought we missed him.

As long as Turambar doesn’t post that night we should be ok, though.

Don't blink; blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck!

I was going to scream fire in the last thread

I couldn’t find a place to sit.

The Four Horsemen?

We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.

by hotclaws on Apr 30, 2008 6:09 PM EDT   0 recs

Yeah, we need to

After watching Valverde last night, I don’t think we can take the “Death” title away from him just yet.

Don't blink; blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck!

You guys can be all over that

but there’s no way I’m calling our bullpen “Hogwarts.”

We’ve gotten pretty lucky so far and havent had to face a lot of “aces” yet.

We’ve had to face Zito twice!

I like to think we're the reason

for his trip to the bullpen

Baseball season, when everything becomes right in the world.

Damn

Your right. Too bad he can’t by a win with his 126 million dollars.

by Elway4Prez on Apr 30, 2008 6:12 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I'd love to be him, though

by soco on Apr 30, 2008 6:13 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Seriously

Pay me 126 million and I can go out and get as many wins as Zito has.

Don't blink; blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck!

by Stile4aly on Apr 30, 2008 6:14 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I'd do a lot of things for that money

Ha!

I’d get twice as many wins as he has so far this season, and for half as much money!
