Great book for anyone who doesn't believe that Wins and RBI's etc are historically very overrated:

Its a pretty good book, i don't agree with everything in it.

Blue Jays' Brett Cecil has not allowed a hit over the last 43 batters he has faced.

Is that any good?

Aaaaaaaand that's done.

Puig just thrown out by 12 feet trying to leg out a double with 2 outs and Adrian Gonzalez coming up.

I'm on the Giants, and I appreciated that play.

Giants the key to me having a winning day today, I'm at 3-3 not including this game.

Ryan Howard just grounded into a double play on a 3-0 count.

Come on Mr. M. On the Phils -120, Phils 1st 5 -.5 +130, and under 6.5 -105. 1-0 Victory would be much appreciated.

Ouch. 3 run blast by Hanley

Mr. M quit on the Phils this year. He's a Pirates now.

I don't believe him. Guarantee he is watching and cursing RIGHT NOW! (if he's still awake ld balls

He works the afternoon/night shift.

Join us on the Pirates band wagon, Daffy! Plenty of room

Too bad the Marlins can't get players like Hanley Ramirez.

 

[Tron]

Yeah, Hanley's .740 OPS in 2012 was HOF material.

The joke works better when you say, "too bad the Marlins can't get players like Miguel Cabrera".

Cause that's actually the worst trade maybe ever.

Horrible loss at the end.

Sorry for your losses MCB! Working but listening always bits and pieces! Always with the Phils but Pirates have a chance to do damage! What other team should a fan root for to go far with success if their fav team was of it?

Delmon Young (still hits well for a paraplegic) and on 1st in 8th inn. You know you want to replace him in the field eventually! So Nix gets a double and anyone else would have scored but Young barely makes it to 3rd base!

Another typical Charlie move or lack of one! Let's keep Delmon in cause I want to win the game 11, 12 13 inning! With your bullpen, do you really think you could make it that far?
