In the time it took Edwin Encarnacion to pop a bunt, stop, look, say “oh, shoot”, and finally hustle out of the box and up the line, ARod made the decision to play the ball fair, field the hop, look to third, turn, and fire to second. Ramiro Pena made a smooth turn and that was the double play. Could blue have called infield fly? Maybe. That said, this Blue Jays team is a class apart from the walk-over squads of the 00′s and the game was ten innings of to-the-wire baseball. I have a feeling Pete Gammon’s new article will be how the New Stadium was designed to thwart opposing outfielders by the Sun’s angle. Kevin Youkilis is at the top of the list in most offensive categories but is brawling with Nick Swisher for an All Star berth. That means the biggest joke in baseball is John Henry’s PR department. Phil Hughes gave up the long ball to a long ball team, and he hasn’t been the same since being reined in for his innings limit.
The Mets piled on the Nats early and Takahashi left the game before tiring completely. He was sharp through five. Elmer Dessens came in to relieve but almost needed relief of his own. Alex Cora’s turn on the DP to get out of the sixth was “unconventional”. The Mets are proving a balanced assault in the lineup.

Love watching the movie Nell.Nothing better than Jodie Foster walking around talking like a babbling retard then lifting her skirt to expose that foresty bush and coconut tits
BABE:

I’m on for the first two or three. Couldn’t even get Kay to do this game, it’s Ken and Seamus Cordigul O’Shaugnessy.
CoCo Crisp, you’ve really let yourself go.
Did somebody bring up that Gardner 1 and Jeter 2 had to have crossed Joes mind in the last few days?
…and I hope everyone had a pleasant weekend.
Well that certainly will put a crimp in Crawford’s drawers, jrz. Jennings is saying it’s until Posada comes back. Newsflash: Jorge Posada is NEVER coming back – as we knew him.
Interesting to see how all this plays out…
I think you did, Jrz.
I did? I musta been drunk, gotta stop that.
Posadas finger just gave him the opportunity for no fuss, he has been thinking about it for weeks. Any big media have anything like that in the last week?
Gardner keeps his OBP over .370 and his BA over .290 and he will stay there.
shrewd!!!
Jennings trumpets the party line, in that case.
Of course Cashman has to want it work, too.
Rays had a nice little comeback on the sox but them scabs that tito is running out there every day just keep producing
Flah Flah touting Gardner as all star worthy.

thx for the tip, have it on gameday.

“Get off my Pussy Mound” T-shirts now available for sale
Dallas Braden mad he didn’t give the As approval
Awful play from Chad Curtis.
Jack Curry just shared that the A’s did a “Get Off My Mound” tshirt for $25 a pop at the stadium. Dally got his panties wound up because the team didn’t consult him or the players’ union about using his quote. ARod simply asked for a cut.
beat me to it, slam.
flah flah…yeah that gets me too
hahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahh
tampa wins…thahahahahaha tampons win!
get off my quote!
arod goes deep here
or maybe not!
get off my quote! hahahaha
Wouldn’t mind seeing a smoking foul ball smashing into the As dugout and hitting that redneck trash Braden.
Arod annoys me too, but Braden annoys me more
Dally would be mortified by the insult. his grandmother’s gallbladder would explode.
I’m out fellas. later.
later
