The Polaroid Random Thoughts Baseball Thread

[MrMonkey]

From the all-star break to the end of the year, what NL team lead the league in runs scored in 2011? I think me asking the question gives the answer away!

It appears worse than it is, but making it to the all-star for 2012 break close to the lead is all I'm asking for! Don't count them out!

How many games do you have tickets to?

I didn't realize this was build on the old Orange Bowl.

Brutal day. All the big wood won.

McB, PM me and I'll give you the recap on the stadium if you're still interested.

Don't want to share it with the class?

IMO there was only 100 but they added a 5 and a 4!

So MLB just randomly said the A's would play 2 home games in Japan! Possibly in 2013 they should spend all of April there!

And after yesterday's game against the Marlins now talk in Philly was how we should have signed the Cuban guy on the A's! Unreal how some fans change as the wind does day-to-day!

That was brutal. Must be 10k season tickets, which must be included in the visitors cut. Hope they get a new stadium.

Once again I find myself watching an A's game.

#2 just got picked off 2B in a scoreless game in the bottom 3rd. :

It's like watching a high school regional final.

So you're the other one watching it. Only fitting they have a rain delay in this game.

Royals look good.

good defense

Red Sox after Marlin Byrd. So much for winning. Cubs will even throw in Soriano.
