May 17, 201610 yr I remember a game when I was a tyke and there was a manual scoreboard but only had numbers 0-9. Well one team scored an ungodly number of runs in the first inning, and then a couple innings later the game was in the 30s, and one of the rows just had 999's across it even though most of the runs were in one inning. Except they probably ran out of 9's too. My memory is slightly imperfect. This has been your "Good Times, Good Times" moment
May 17, 201610 yr Go to Heaven for the climate but Hell for the company. -- Mark TwainNever heard that one before. It is tremendous!
May 17, 201610 yr Author The first inning tonight was hell. You positive you'd put up with that, for 20+ additional starts if that's how it went? Yeah... I'd allow... maybe one more time but I don't think it will remain this bad. A's had a similar issue with that Manaaaaaaa Kid.
May 17, 201610 yr 100,000 stations have been turned to another. Luckily I have Slap Shot on TIVO. I love hockey.In all seriousness... I wouldn't do that. I was all for Buxton going down when he was striking out 50% of the time. With Berrios he has had a few bad innings and a lot of good innings. Granted... this last inning was real bad but I'd like to see him try and work through this at the MLB level. I'd keep Duffey and Berrios in the rotation come hell or high water for the rest of the year and pick one of the vets for the bullpen. I don't care who. Completely agree. While this was bad, so are seasons long mediocre performances. You can either lose with no chance of improving, or you can lose with a chance of getting better. I don't know if May, Meyer, Berrios, Duffey, Burde, Chargois et could lead us to some playoff runs, but I can almost guarantee that Hufhes, Nolasco, Jepsen, etc won't.
May 17, 201610 yr Author If they can pick up another run this inning I'll believe there's a chance Game On DiscGolfer Bring it on home for us.
May 17, 201610 yr What business is it of yours?I heard he was a security guard at a jewelry store I was looking at.
May 17, 201610 yr Yeah... I'd allow... maybe one more time but I don't think it will remain this bad. A's had a similar issue with that Manaaaaaaa Kid. That's about what I figured. Hell or High Water == Sorry Kid I Thought You'd Come Around By This Time.
May 17, 201610 yr Author Never heard that one before. It is tremendous! Mark Twain is perhaps my favorite writer of all time. He produced so many great quotes working all those years for MAD magazine.
May 17, 201610 yr Ahh, finally in my seat. Early AM meeting, and now to check in on the game. HOLY...!!! WHAT TH...... Sheesh, what a start to the day. I'm gonna be mooning around here all morning like a crack-brained calf.
May 17, 201610 yr I ask everybody to pause and observe a moment of silence in honor of this most historic game thread which passes the previous all time record by 84 words. Bravo, Riverbrian. I knew you could do it!

May 17, 201610 yr Dean seems to have a good motion on his changeup. He looks like he's throwing the fastball, just like Coach explained it to him.
