Whoever we put in at shortstop enters a black hole.

 

[NighthawkVol]

It "wasn't boring" is pretty nearly a top-of-the-line, damning-by-faint-praise, backhanded compliment all by itself.

But he means to say that he wasn't feeling bored. Which suggests perhaps he often is.

It’s actually just a tongue in cheek way of saying it was an exciting game. No more, no less. It’s actually very easy to understand. The notion that anyone would get their dander up over something that benign is bizarre.

But you choose anger, so the mental gymnastics are necessary.

I’ve got to go pick my other kid up and hope for a turn of events when I get back.

Doyle out

Wasn’t him that made the error…..that was the point of my post. That is why pitchers are supposed to have a solid D behind them.

 

[Weezer]

We need to find our dongs.

Wait....

 

[wmcovol]

131st in fielding percentage.

 

[joevols89]

How do these announcers not know Doyle had a blister? If Paul skenes had a mosquito bite on his throwing arm they’d never shut up about it.

They do know. They mentioned it and said it didn’t appear to be an issue tonight.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Nice play at second…Peebles!

 

[Caz]

Routine ground ball, throwing 2nd base for the 3rd out and he threw into right field allowing a run to score and the batter getting all the way to 3rd.

Yep,, that'll get you beat more times than not

 

[VolGirl81]

Nice throw Peebles

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Find the bats

Peebles, Manny, Kilen

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

Lets go, Peeb! Time for some dongs

 

[Proud Army Wife]

It is definitely not all on him

I don’t think it is either.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Wasn’t him that made the error…..that was the point of my post. That is why pitchers are supposed to have a solid D behind them.

He gave up 3 home runs...

 

[Weezer]

What we really need is a sexy granny.

 

[I4Vols]

I’ve got to go pick my other kid up and hope for a turn of events when I get back.

That's what my wife says but referring to me...

 

[knoxvol52]

Rumor going around about a blister. Don't kill the messenger.

 

[LieutenantNeyland]

They do know. They mentioned it and said it didn’t appear to be an issue tonight.

I must’ve missed it and if that’s true then Burke does deserve the hate for at least tonight.

 

[patrick]

There is no way they charge all 8 on Doyle .. this announcer is a moron .. his defense has been poor behind him as well as him not having his best

And Burke just doesn’t correct him for his fear of being called a homer.

 

[2EastTnVols]

Defense not good and Liam not himself tonight. Sucks too case we actually gave him some decent run support

 

[Caz]

We can get 4

 

[AthensVol2007]

For me just blister empathy. Never heard of a pitcher getting a nagging blister. Gotta hurt.

How new are you to baseball? Seriously? MLB teams put pitchers on the 15 day IR over blisters.

 

[4chrissy]

I know offense is the key to modern day baseball, but have we completely abandoned defense? Wonder how much emphasis is put on defense in practice.

 

[volfan__18]

we are swinging at some rlly bad pitches.

 

[Jackcrevol]

We can get 4
