The All-Star Game Thread

[barbed wire Bob]

FOX has this thing with leggy blondes, eh? I had the sound off, is this the same or different bimbo from the anthem?

I thought it was the same stripper.

 

[rembrat]

What do you think she can squat?

She's all legs so her squat is probably horrific and she can't hit depth. Would not bang.

 

[Ale Xander]

This really is a shitty song.

Pride of Newton
Shush

 

[Al Zarilla]

They're going to want way TOO much.

Oh well.

Awesome.

The physicist or the town?

 

[DeadlySplitter]

lol literally everyone replaced but Hosmer

Yost loves his guys.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Smooth is pretty good.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

The physicist or the town?

Based on her body, the cookie.

 

[barbed wire Bob]

Did Buck say "the bullpen takes over for the Royals?"

 

[barbed wire Bob]

Based on her body, the cookie.

Which was named after the town.

 

[edoug]

From Bradley Jr., Trout, and Betts to Trumbo, Desmond, and Beltran, better keep the ball on the ground.

 

[Bergs]

Did Buck say "the bullpen takes over for the Royals?"

He sure did. He was flustered because he didn't realize it was the 3rd out, I believe.

 

[Minneapolis Millers]

Did Buck say "the bullpen takes over for the Royals?"

Yes. After earlier confusing White for Red Sox. I think he's drunk.

 

[rembrat]

Yes. After earlier confusing White for Red Sox. I think he's drunk.

Or bored to death.

 

[Bergs]

Or bored to death.

I wish.

 

[strek1]

Buck is so clueless

 

[ThePrideofShiner]

Pride of Newton
Shush

Better than Pride of Shiner I suppose.

 

[barbed wire Bob]

Or bored to death.

It's hard to tell with Buck. He was never the most enthusiastic announcer.

 

[shawnrbu]

Yost loves his guys.

Yost knows how to take care of his own. Yost going balls to the wall and loading the roster with shutdown relievers is a message to the Royals that he believes in them and thinks they can make another run.

Remember in 05 when Tito didn't pick Timlin to go to the All Star Game and some of the Sox veterans got pissy about it?

 

[mauidano]

Ken Rosenthal is still shorter than Papi when Papi is siting down.

 

[Ale Xander]

Nice how they skipped over a MFY by talking to Papi

 

[mauidano]

Scherzer is just a freaking beast on the mound.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Telling a guy like Scherzer to just go balls out for an inning is really unfair to batters. No chance.

 

[Bergs]

Yeah, that was filthy.

Bats them 6th and 8th

Would not bang

 

[ifmanis5]

Except with Jeter or his beloved Cardinals, then the tongue comes out.

 

[shawnrbu]

Scherzer might end up being the best free agent pitcher to sign a $100M+ contract with a new team. Who holds that crown now? Mussina?

 

[mauidano]

I'm neither racist or misogynistic but that series on Fox with the young girl making it to the major leagues is not gonna make it. Might have done better as a movie. Baseball themed TV shows are hard enough to succeed.

I hope she gets rocked.

 

[mauidano]

Two of the worst people in sports journalism, Cowherd and Whitlock taking up 2 1/2 seats that would've been better appreciated by real sports fans.

 

[rembrat]

These Arizona uniforms are so stealthy.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

I like the Goldshmidt Betances match up.

 

[shawnrbu]

Cue the obligatory Kevin Long ballwashing from Buck.

 

[Al Zarilla]

NL keeping it close. Are they lying in the weeds for a comeback?

 

[normstalls]

Diamondback unis are disgusting. Yikes

 

[Ale Xander]

are we rooting for Betances here?

 

[shawnrbu]

NL keeping it close. Are they lying in the weeds for a comeback?

I hope so. Wright is slated for extras, right?

 

[boxosII]

we want Game 1 at Fenway

 

[Minneapolis Millers]

Legit inning for Betances.

 

[Al Zarilla]

I hope so. Wright is slated for extras, right?

That's wright. Forgot about that.

 

[Ale Xander]

The I is singular, Buck

 

[strek1]

Oh good another song delay

 

[YTF]

Two of the worst people in sports journalism, Cowherd and Whitlock taking up 2 1/2 seats that would've been better appreciated by real sports fans.

Looked like 2 seats to me with Cowherd only getting half. That should be the first issue discussed on this soon to be short lived show.

 

[Ale Xander]

Moar commercials

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Information Systems Technology Petty Officer First Class Connor was pretty good.

 

[barbed wire Bob]

All I can say is that she better have a great knuckleball since that is the only way I could ever see a woman pitch in the majors.

 

[Ale Xander]

Pinch run?

 

[strek1]

Wonder if they can get to this Lester guy

 

[normstalls]

I'd have gone to relievers by now... Yost has out managed him
