I was at the Yankee/O's game when Daryl Strawberry came flying out of the dugout to fight him after he beaned Tino Martinez.

He almost always chokes in the most important situations though. They needed to get one out of four from the Cards, and stay within 4 1/2 games. It's important not to get swept in a 4 game series starting the 2nd half. It's the importance of the game that got this choker thinking too much. Guy doesn't throw enough strikes in these situations. That's why Jay was able to take ball 4 in the 9th. If the fkr would throw strikes in these choke games, then they wouldn't feel like they can take that pitch. Despite what you two think, these opposing players do know he's a choke. They aren't exactly scared of taking strike 3. The're pretty sure he's gunna miss the zone. They foul off anything in the zone, and then know they'll probably get ball 4 from the choke.

Score was 4-3 with man on 2nd and 1st with Pujols walking up to the plate. Grounder inning over after full count. John Jay has 80 career ML plate appearances.

By the way actually I'm wrong, Dodgers are 40-2 after leading after 7 innings.

The pitch she got Pujols out on could of been killed. I don't know how she got away with that pitch. Dude, the catcher was having to move his met all the way across the plate to catch BROX yesterday. Not like she was accurate. The ball 4 pitch could of been called strike 3. Probably was just off the plate, but, when you're known for chokin', you're not gunna get any calls. The ump will assume you're wild. They are gunna error (if they error) towards what they expect that pitcher to do. In that situation (men on base etc.,) the players n' umps see her as a choke. What you're missing, is she's either dominanting, or she's gunna get dominated. Let me tell you some bout this scared bitch. She should be blowing these people away. If she comes in there getting involved in full counts, then she is most likely gunna give it up. Means she is scared, and trying to get away without having to challenge people. Each time she struggles, SHE DOES THE SAME WEAK SHT OUT THERE. Fans get the most mad when games are lost that don't have to be lost at all. I can tell you that this bitch's failures are virtually 90% games that would be won if she wasn't weak in the head. Ain't mechanics, fatigue, or injury. Bitch chokes. Starts getting way to deep in counts. Sheza choke. I'm as sure of that as I am that the sky gun be dark in 3-4 hours.

Chokey Chokey......She loaded the bases. Donny Baseball somehow had to bring in that punchin' bag, Sherril. Of course, that loser gave it up, too. I think Donny had to do that, cuz he went to the mound twice. Lot of bad sht going on out there. Face it, when your closer is suckin', it's a cancer. That fkn cow is causing the rest of the team to DO STUPID SHT. They're acting like the whole team is on dope. I think they need to have a horrible 2nd half in order to accept the fact that they need to start over in that bull p. Couple weeks in, I said it sucks. They somehow had a decent May, but they suck, and there's no band-aid big enough to cover that up. KERSHAW was given 5 runs, and still he does his woman fade job. Simon, he's from Texas, but he pitches like he's from San Clemente. Such a fader.

Joe's been a successful regular season manager. He's gone to the post for a lot of seasons in a row. He's gunna need a miracle now. There ain't one guy in that bullpen who's shyt tuff right now. Even Kuo be strugglin' to avoid walking people. He says this a test. That just shows me that the organization hasn't come to terms with the fact that the pen sucks. You gun struggle if you can't keep the fkrs off them bases 7th-9th. Wake up, fool, attack ya cancer, or die. This ain't a test. They suck. Tests are all completed. Anybody that keeps using Sherril can't seriously think they gunna win anything. Gets hit every night they let him on the mound. See these fkrs cut their own throats with getting distracted by non-baseball shyt. Should of got this bullpen fixed last winter, but they got their interests elsewhere. SAME PEOPLE FKN UP AS FKD UP IN THE POST. SAME SHYT. Same lame response to the problem.
