Chad Durbin pitched 3 shutout innings. That's just something you can't type every day of your life. This thread is a historical record, therefore it had to be entered.

here's jhonny reverted back to times gone by striking out at a breaking ball in the dirt with one out runners on 1st and 3rd. He is confused being back in his old home I think and what his purpose is.

I wouldn't even try to predict the ending to this game.

clyde · #**1284** 08-09-2011, 10:39 PM

Oh boy.

clyde · #**1285** 08-09-2011, 10:51 PM

I really love the idea about trying to steal home with one out in a tie game, bottom of the 8th and a very good eye at the plate.

Stroke off brilliance...yup.

It was a squeeze I think...breaking ball in dirt...didn't work!!

Good lord they're still playing.

YOu're gonna have to drive down to the stadium clyde, they're gonna need some more arms tonight. We're now down to Herrmann for the rest of the game! when's the last time you had both team's bullpens each throw 9 shutout innings? Chris Perez even pitched well and it's gonna be wasted.

They are really weirding out.

If need be, do they use a starter or a position player who pitched in little league?

To show how strange this game has become, watch Fucl<U ht a homer.

I don't think that's possible. All the west coast games are now ending! Do they still conduct a curfew in the AMerican League?

clyde · #**1292** 08-10-2011, 12:12 AM

You were right..nailed his 4th strikeout of the night.Would have been too strange.

I think the curfew is by the city and not a canvas rule.

clyde · #**1293** 08-10-2011, 12:14 AM

Herman's turn;this doesn't feel good.

clyde · #**1294** 08-10-2011, 12:26 AM

Why am I doing this?..it's not even fun.

clyde · #**1295** 08-10-2011, 12:29 AM

Might as well go with Brantley hitting a homer...at least that's within the realm.

clyde · #**1296** 08-10-2011, 12:33 AM

Fucl< this noise.

I quit.

horseofcourse · #**1297** 08-10-2011, 12:42 AM

Herrmann two shutout, this is bazzaro world. Durbing/Herrmann 5 shutout. Now 12 shutout by the bullpen, not enough though.

winner, winner!! Not a homer, but hit by a pitch with bases loaded by Fucl <U on a two strike pitch, he had his 5th strikeout locked up but it works. Frank Herrmann has our last two wins. You can't make this stuff up. It's pure insanity. We do not drop below .500 once again thanks to a Frank Herrmann win!! Fucl<U wins a game he struck out 4 times by getting hit by a pitch. Welcome to Cleveland, you stink.

Tiggers have lost like 14 straight in Cleveland. The odds are in your favor.

YOu know that has to end sometime. I was counting on a Tribe win last night as it was the only starting pitching matchup I liked this series, unfortunately the rain killed both starters...and both bullpens are pretty taxed tonight. I was pretty much counting on losses for O-Bald-O and against Verlander, I don't care how much better Carmona has been pitching!
