Scoreboard Watching Thread 2014

Sad to see this Red Sox and Yankee game not have more meaning. These are the 2 teams you really want to see battle it out for the pennant.

 

They don't really have a rivalry going on anymore. In the past 20 years, I think the peak of their rivalry was in 2003-2004 and escalated with that Varitek vs Arod scuffle. Now you see players of both teams smiling and talking to each other... something that was kind of rare to see 10 years ago.

Xander Bogaerts needs to be more like David Eckstein.

Rivalries are just some BS used to sell tickets, increase ratings, and make headlines. They are like unicorns in that they don't exist.

Xander Bogaerts doesn't like baseball?

[GD]

Exactly. That guy was a winner. World Series MVP. Just a guy who isn't flashy and gets the job done.

 

Hi there Joe Morgan.

[GD]

And we have gone full troll. Goodnight, gents.

Confession: I f***ing loved watching David Eckstein play baseball.

I can't believe you've done this.

Sportsmanship ruined baseball. If they brought back throwing at heads and racism it would spice things up again.

 

LMAO, not politically correct, but clever post.

Breaking: Jonn hired as Diamondbacks new manager.

Well if it's fake, they should bring it back, because now it looks like the Sox and Yanks are friends lol. Pretty lame if you compare it to 2003-2004.

Dbacks organizational philosophy is to acquire "grit first guys" and to get rid of guys with talent who hate baseball. Successful franchise over there in Arizona.

Buchholz just got the game tied up again.. 7-7.

 

5 IP, 8 H, 7 ER, 5 BB, 4Ks, 6.22 ERA. How did this guy go from an ace to near Ricky Romero status?

[jaysfan2014]

Esmil Rogers now in the game for the Yankees.

[jaysfan2014]

Wonder if Brett Gardner is taking the same stuff Ellsbury did with his 32 HR season in 2011.. Gardner homers again!

[comeon sense]

Gardiner the lefty hitting a hr off a rightie.

Sometimes it works.

Lets see what he is on,and see if the orioles are on the same thing.

Games of interest today:

 

- Baltimore (Gausman) vs Washington (Roark) - Obviously want Washington to win.

- Detroit (Schezer) vs Yankees ( McCarthy) - Detroit

- Dodgers (Grienke) vs Angels ( Richards) - Dodgers

- Oakland (Shark) vs Tampa Bay ( Cobb) - Oakland

- Oakland (Shark) vs Tampa Bay ( Cobb) - Oakland

 

Washington's favoured to win according to oddsmakers. As for the rest, Detroit for sure, the other two are a coin toss. For Jays fans, let's hope Roark has his best stuff.

[jaysfan2014]

McCarthy barely gets out of the 2nd inning scoreless.. after wasting 34 pitches. Considering the Yanks pen is gassed, they can't afford a short outing by McCarthy.

 

Nats up 2-1 in the O's game BTW.

[G-Snarls]

Nationals just went up 2-1

 

Yes!!

[comeon sense]

Go Cinncy,Washington,Detroit,and Oakland!

[G-Snarls]

What a PITA for Baltimore to have to go to Washington for this one game between series. Yuck.

Oh we're they home for their last series? Was thinking they were on West coast.

 

Edit: Yeah, they wee playing Seattle at home. Oops

They were on a west coast swing two weeks ago but merely played west coast teams at home last week. And tomorrow they come to Toronto!

[jaysfan2014]

Eat your heart out, Jim Edmonds! Carrera just saved 2 runs on an unbelievable play. Sadly, a run scored on a SF... 1-0 Yankees.

[Trouba95]

f*** the god damn Orioles. Seriously.

[Trouba95]

Think I've given up the division.

[G-Snarls]

FU Orioles

 

FU so hard
