Batting Practice

[SCUDSBROTHER]

Manny has a great eye at the plate. He has struck-out twice tonite, but they were on great pitches. He is by far the best hitter we have ever had.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

That pitcher was terrific. We can't hit that type. Who was that? MATSON? Send him out there for 6 more outs. No way we hit that type of pitcher.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

LOL....ALL of Philly gun get gray hair from watching this game. Wow.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

This game be pure comedy. It's sooooo hilarious. We are not as good as you making us look. Matson totally had us. Should of gone 1 more inning with him, and finished us off with Lidge. Sometimes managers are just stupido.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

Nomar was cold. For him to go deep like that, it had to be a piece of **** pitch, and boooooooooooooooooooooooy that was some kinda hanging piece of crap. Thanks for da cookie whoeva that fine reliever was. Well, DECLANS you can blame this on ya manager. We were neva eva eva gunna hit that Matson guy. We can't hit that type of quality stuff, and ya manager took him out. I could not believe that gift. It's like he doesn't know how feeble we are against certain pitchers. That's one of them. I guarantee ya he would of gotten 3 outs in the 8th, and no way we can hit Lidge's stuff. Atleast Nomar did what I asked him to do. He took 3 pitches, and then got ahead, and then he got da cookie. What the hell kinda pitch was that? Even Pierre could of hit that.

all in all still a nice comeback win ....but you right mia probably goes deep on that last one to Nomahhhhh

the Red Sox are 9-3 without Manny Poo so it's all good with dred head hitting about 500 for you guys wat more could you want. Rent a whore is working fine for the blue people .....

RENT..LOL....TRUST ME, WE GUN MARRY HIM. The only chance of a problem would be with KENT,and even KENT will shut up as long as Manny hits. We've never had a hitter like MANNY. People are coming just to see him play. Kent is retiring after this year. The team will then be led 100% by MARTIN-MANNY-KEMP.....HIP HOP BALLERS. Manny is our only real consistent hitter. The others are in-n -outters. For instance, KEMP was like 5/5 last night, and 0/5 tonite. That's a problem, and Manny calls him his boy. So maybe he can get Kemp to be more consistent, and get better in clutch situations(take a lot of pitches etc....like Ethier can.)

For a catcher, Martin can really fly, huh?

[SCUDSBROTHER]

Big start from KURODA. That's a weird dude. He has 2-3 good ones, and then 2-3 horrible ones. Wow, any chance the Phillies can stay a few more days, please.

Scuds... the Phil's need to stay far far away from LA... at least we should still be able to put away the Mets for the east.

We are coming to you for 4 though. Dodgers didn't do any of the stupid stuff they usually do. For some reason they played a full 9 innings every night. They executed well. That's very unlike them. They usually have a mixture of good execution and bad execution. There are a number of reasons for that. They are a much more comfortable team at home. No doubt about this. They don't like to hear people saying beat L.A. etc. That stuff works on them. They rarely blow teams out. So, having the last at bat(home team) is more important to them than say Milwaukee etc. Also, you guys did get a lil frustrated and have some short at bats. A huge thing about the Phils is they don't seem to have that one dominant starting pitcher early in a series with the Dodgers. That's a big deal, because the Dodgers start really struggling when they face somebody like a Peavy, Webb, or Zambrano. They get real down for more than just that one game. We are catching a break by avoiding Sabathia, too. If we can avoid really good starters, then we got a big shot in most games. We only beat you by 1 run and 2 runs. I expect your team to be ready to give us some payback in Philly, but I would much rather play you than the Mets, Atlanta, Florida, Cubs, and especially St. Louis. If your fans are out n' loud it would really help ya. Makes a big difference when the Dodgers are on the road. That's pretty much what went wrong in Frisco. Fans got into the games up there, and their team got all amped up. That's pretty obvious, because they got on a jet to Houston, and have lost every game since they beat the Dodgers last Sunday.

Could it be that Joe Torre will be inviting the Steinbrenners to the playoffs out at Chavez Ravene???

I was one of those yankee fans that thought it was time for Joe to go last year, his magic seemed gone in a city where the expectations have become impossible to live up to.


i have to say that old joe is in the cat bird seat right now , while hank is eating crow for saying we should wait till '09 because of injuries - the old man never would have said taht

[Bigsmc]

Buster Olney says, "With all due respect to Hank Steinbrenner, the Rays had more injuries than any AL East team in the first six weeks of the regular season, and more recently, they've lost Carl Crawford for the season and Evan Longoria for at least a couple of more weeks."

Hank is an embarrassment every time he opens his mouth. Stop making excuses.

The Old Man needs to muzzle him...nah, better yet, let him talk.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

Without Tea Drinka Torre, the Dodgers be atleast 10 games over .500. His stupid decisions have hurt this team's record. It's actually not that big a deal, cuz I think D'BACKS are just gunna respond no matter what we do. They a cancer we can't get rid of. I guess it hurt us for the WILDCARD though. I simply can not believe this idiot would pinch hit in the 9th (with 2 outs, tie runner on 3rd base) with Andruw Jones. Piss'd away games this year. He wanna be nice. FCK DAT. WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU SAW YA F'N manager make a commercial saying this Bigelow Tea be his fkn "green tea of choice for years." I mean in between innings of a damn game. They run that s-h-i-t. Yea, he says he bleeds Dodger Blue, but he also goes Green. Then he says "Bigelow Green Dat is....It's been my green tea of choice for years." You believe this here? He actually did this(with a mug n' damn tea-bag string hanging out.)
