I just threw up in my mouth. Kipnis has played like 10 games and has more home runs than Kearns has RBI.

You need to forward that to Acta and Shapiro.

haha, agreed. I could have sworn at the end of one of the screen shots of her dancing they made an elephant noise over the sound system.

Also apparently Jack Hannahan was next in line after Josh Tomlin last night. Have to say that would have been interesting to see.

Yes, that would have been!

Here's hoping to gain some more ground back tonight!

But we suck, so it probably won't happen!

That was funny about waking up early this morning and seeing the replay and thinking the game was still going on! (That happened to me once, too)

Excited to see Ubaldo pitch. I was out of town getting hammered at a wedding in his start in Arlington.

Imagine if Goatnis would have been brought up a little earlier when we had that idiotic outfield fiasco! AND, I'm sayin' we should have brought his BAT up and he could have and would have gladly played in the OF. Thank God he wasn't traded, too!

Nice start from the offense. GOATnis is making quite the impression on me offensively. Yesterdays double, his first ab, was a thing of beauty as he stayed back on the ball and flicked his hands even though his plant foot was already landed. Dont usually see that out of guys this early on in their career. Ive seen it twice in 10 games with GOATnis.

We're all Kipnessess.

I'm also loving what I see out of Zeke Carrera. See ya Grady.

Great hustle by Fukudome to turn that into a double.

15 games...6 HR 10 RBI...not bad for the rook.

He is pretty much anti Grady. Fouls off a bunch of pitches and just tries to put it in play. When he gets a pitch he can handle, he has shown the ability to drive it for doubles.

Since he was called up July 22nd, 6 players have 7 homers.

Damnit. 3 runs with 2 outs and we could have been out of the inning.

That was a bit disheartening. Should have been out of the inning. Then the bad bounce enabled Victor to score, when he mightve been thrown out if he tried to score. Then a bad throw allows Avila to score, as he is dead with a good relay.

Gotta hope Asdrubal is OK. It didn't look good.

Jimenez needs to put a goose egg up this inning after getting that cushion back....
