Another day, another game with a second-half lead blown. It was the usual story: a quality start,. a woeful lack of offense. 3.2 runs per game in the last nine, and the rule since May 13 continues to prevail. Score three runs or less, and we're 0-11; score any more and we're 9-1. Is four runs really too much to ask us to score more than once per week?
Enough said. Early start today: 11 am Arizona time. My presence will be limited for work-related reasons, but a small Yahoo window may be located towards the bottom-left corner of my screen.

soco's keys to the game
1) Catch a little bit before going to work
2) Work
3) Dessert?
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.
i'd like to add for me,
4) recover from a serious bout of heavy drinking last night
5) work? so over rated. ::: sigh::: gotta go in later though

Not sure how much I'll be around for this one.
You know, work and all.
Max Scherzer is all out of bubblegum.
The B-squad is out today
- A. Ojeda ss .339
- C. Burke 1b .171
- O. Hudson 2b .302
- M. Reynolds 3b .249
- C. Young cf .239
- C. Snyder c .268
- J. Upton rf .270
- M. Owings p.297
- A. Romero lf .235
Yes, you read that right: our pitcher is batting eight. Think that’s a first in Diamondbacks history. Romero, Ojeda and Burke all get starts today, in place of Salazar, Drew and Jackson/Tracy respectively. I don’t have a great deal of confidence in this lineup scoring four or more.
Hopefully they can score more than yesterday

Augie grounds out to start the inning
Burke, now would be an awesome time to start proving us wrong.
"Look, I'm not a financial expert or anything, but I'm pretty sure that a zeppelin is an excellent investment opportunity."
That's a base hit for him
A good start.
"Look, I'm not a financial expert or anything, but I'm pretty sure that a zeppelin is an excellent investment opportunity."
A single and a stolen base means he’s pretty much already exceeded my expectations for him today.

I think that giving players

You know what, good for Hall. That organization has taken him for granted and are now bailing on him after 150 at bats. If the team doesn’t show any loyalty to him, why should he return the favor?

One of the guys on the radio said this morning that Fielder and Braun were trying to show up RJ in yesterday’s game. Anyone know what that was all about? I saw most of the game but don’t remember that.
I didn't hear it, but it sounds ridiculous.
For all the times he walked off the mound while staring down the batter after a strikeout, Randy Johnson has no right to complain about people showing him up.
Hmm.
I remember Braun yelling something at the dugout after he hit his home run, but I just saw it as him being pumped up. Got them the lead against a future Hall of Famer who’d been dominating them up to that point. I didn’t see anything wrong with it either. Dunno about Fielder though.
Fatty McFatfat however
stood and watched his bomb, probably because either
A) he was wondering if he would have the stamina to waddle around the bases
B) which combo meals he should get at McDonalds after the game

Every dictionary, funnily enough, carries a definition of “irregardless” and the almost always have an entry similar to this:
http://irregardless.org/images/Dictionary.jpg
Then there’s the entry for “word:” (1): a speech sound or series of speech sounds that symbolizes and communicates a meaning usually without being divisible into smaller units capable of independent use (2): the entire set of linguistic forms produced by combining a single base with various inflectional elements without change in the part of speech elements; b (1): a written or printed character or combination of characters representing a spoken word 2): any segment of written or printed discourse ordinarily appearing between spaces or between a space and a punctuation mark c: a number of bytes processed as a unit and conveying a quantum of information in communication and computer work
“Irregardless” passes that test quite easily, even if it gets lingosnobs up in arms.

last year against the Brewers, we went

L 9-0

W 3-2 (Webb pitched that one)

In the standings?
If you lose, and the team you’re being compared to doesn’t play. You will drop half a game in the standings compared to them.
Yep
They’ve played one fewer, but have won four games less and lost three more. You work out the games back by adding the four to the three, and dividing by two: hence, 3.5.

- The Question is: Who cares!?
In all fairness...
...Manny Parra has pitched very well in his last few starts. So your not the only ones. Plus, as a Brewer fan, I feel for you guys. Last year the Brewers got off to a great start, then threw it away at the end of the season to the Cubs, who were then swept. By you guys if I’m not mistaken. And this year, the hated Cubs are playing out of their minds, and no matter what the Brewers do, cannot seem to gain on them. I mean, they have a 9 game winning streak going. WTF?
All I'm saying is hang in there, and we'll see you in the playoffs!"Get up, get up, get outta' here, GONE!!!"
Thanks for taking the time
to post a polite, sympathetic, and sensitive comment, especially after your team just swept ours. :-)
And welcome to the ‘Pit. (Said with slightly less enthusiasm than usual, due to the Dbacks’ suckage)
Max Scherzer is all out of bubblegum.
Boy.
I knew we were playing over our heads the first couple weeks, but this is just insane. It’s like we’re down to the ankles now.
I have faith we'll average out to a better team
I just hope it’ll be soon.

after that, he was almost walking to catch the ball... and threw like a soft toss to the cutoff...

You might be better served
banging your head against a brick wall. Same basic effect, but the wall isn’t as painful.

Hey look dont blame me...
Last time I was in a GDT we were leading 1-0 last night ;)
So...time for another drink then?
Um..um..um
Did I miss anything at work today? Let’s see: crappy defense, no offense…nope, didn’t miss a thing.
Is it too early to start worrying about this club? Something ain’t right with the D’Backs, and it better get fixed before the Dodgers wake up and pass us by!
I think what's wrong is perfectly obvious.
They are missing Eric Byrnes on the squad.
/sarcasm off. . .

Dodgers lose, too. Which I’m not sure is a good thing. Maybe some time dropping in the standings might wake this team up? I don’t know.

Hmmm.....
Maybe I was wrong: the Dodgers really CAN lose forever.

We have the same record as the team that just beat us.
I do what I can, sometimes more, depends on the situation.
And yet
We lead our division by 3.5 games, while they’re in third, 6.5 games back. Go figure…
