I actually got moved to Graphics because you guys stole Joeseph lol. So Ill be doing that every Friday with some camera and CG on the other days with announcing. Tom Cole wants to try and get onto some football games, but without many Graphics guys, it wont be until playoffs roll around and we have only 2 games a day.

Crazy start in Philly. In the first inning Worley has runners at 1st and 3rd no outs and gets out of the inning. Then in the 2nd the first 2 Mets reach base an are at 2nd and 3rd and Worley strikes out the side.

Verlander with possibly 7 more starts has 19 wins....no MLB pitcher has surpassed 22 wins since 2002 when Randy Johnson had 24 and Barry Zito 23

I hope he doesnt get 20!

But I would put good money on at LEAST 23. Probably/possibly 25 (I think would need 8 starts), with the schedule they have remaining (Oakland, KC, Chicago, Tribe, etc)

Just watched replay of Ben Revere's catch last night....THE most difficult play in CF by a mile......only one I've ever seen better like that was a young Andruw Jones who caught it like that, covered a bit more ground and had both feet about 4 feet up the wall while completely turned away from home plate....highlight shows love the full dive and the over the wall catch....this play is much more difficult.

There are several very young and exciting centerfielders!

Thank You!

Not sure what kind of countdown has that catch at #21 but whatever. I'll always side with what Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz swear by.

Braves scored 5 with nobody on and 2 outs in the 4th. Uggla beat out a infield hit that Aramis tried to Chipper Jones a slow roller to start it. Heyward hit a grand slam to left center, hopefully that gets him going a little bit.

Derek Jeter with 3 hits so far tonight is nearing .300 and is now tied with Rod Carew at 3053....get a free moment and check out some of Carew's seasons.

5X over .350

Majority of career in the 70's

Honestly, amazing turn-around for Jeter. I noticed it and posted about it a little over a week ago I think, and he hasnt slowed. I thought he was done at the plate. I was wrong. What do we think he ends up with??? How close to 4k??

Jeter with maybe 2 to 3 years left might finish around 3,500 to 3,600 for a shot at 4th or 5th alltime. He's 22nd tied now with Carew and should pass Henderson and Biggio to finish the season at 20th place.

Interesting afternoon games with Pirates pitching shutting out the Brewers as Hanrahan strikes out the last 3 with 2 on and no one out.
Seattle gives the tribe playoff hopes a "wedgie.
Mets up big on the Phillies and Dodgers big over the Cards.

Going to see the Braves and Cubs tonight at Wrigley, and probably up to Milwaukee for Cubs-Brewers on Sunday. Lotz/Tiger, I'll take bribes to jinx/bless the Braves bats tonight :)

Damn first inning. Kendrick got the ground ball to get out of inning with no runs and Michael Martinez booted the double play ball and the Mets go on to score 4 runs.

Ready for Kendrick to get out of the rotation.

Probably the worst umpired game I have watched in a long long time. Both the Phillies and Mets got robbed all day long.

Hopefully the Cubs can knock off the red hot Braves tonight.
