That! is the way fielding is supposed to work!

[devere]

First Halladay and now Lee mysteriously lose their pitching form against the Giants. It seems that the 2010 Giants, like the 1969 Mets and 1988 Dodgers, are a team of destiny.

"Hey Nolan! Condi can play better right field than that."

I saw the Giants do this against the Angels a few years back. They jumped out in lead in the series and then just lost it....I always thought it was the Giants chance then. Lets hope they can hold on and win the series... My school-hood team.. I remember my first baseball game.

Dad and Grandpa took me to a SF Giants game. 1966 at Candlestick.. It was there I learned about Guldens Brown mustard. To this day it is the mustard I prefer. It was standard on the hot dogs in those days. Ah, the sights, the sounds. And yeah, the Giants lost 6-4 against the dreaded Dodgers... arrggghhhh Maybe this time eh?

11/4

Ok, know I am getting discouraged.

[re_nortex]

And now an unbelievable 11-4.

Well...at least the Mavericks won, beating the Bobcats 101-86. Hey! How 'bout them Stars? :-)

[Liberty Valance]

Cheer up! it’s just game 1. ;o)

Go Rangers!

[Liberty Valance]

LOL!

I grew up with the Tribe and this is my mustard...

It has even been requested in outer space.

Hey! Hey Hey! This thing aint over!
When the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor was it over?...

[B Knotts]

To be fair, both of those took really weird bounces. I guess you could argue that he wasn’t positioned right.

[mylife]

You just cant field at that level and win.

[abigkahuna]

Looks a bit “brown” to me... (the mustard that is)— Ah the memories of the ball park. My wife and I took my little brother to his first ball game. It was an A’s game. The look he had on his face coming up through the tunnel and seeing the bright green field for the first time. It was like he had seen Oz. The A’s lost 11-3 to the Twins if I remember. I have stopped taking family members to ball games and have stopped going myself—evidently the home team looses when I am in the stands.

Bertmans has bite!

I hated the old Cleveland field.
I love the Jake!

[nutmeg]

I’m frozen up here too.

Stupid Cox

Channel 6 (Fox 61) froze up on us for at least 30 minutes, I think... during the World Series!!! Grr!

It went back to normal then intermittently froze up a couple of times. Called Cox tech support at about 9:50pm and they insisted nothing was wrong on their end, but it's interesting that you had a problem also.

We pay a fair amount to Cox for TV, internet and phone, but I have to admit we've had very few problems with them over the years...

I've heard horror stories of Comcast's tech support. I would judge Cox's (over the past 10 years or so) as "OK". Sometimes good, sometimes bad...

Need a ticket to the Rangers game when they go back to Texas Saturday? :)

[who knows what evil?]

Who saw this bloodbath coming?

[mylife]

Nobody.

That’s baseball.

[B Knotts]

Beard time!
