Poor Ackley, first day at Safeco, and he’s been tickled by Griffey and hugged by Sweeney.
OUCH! from Angie when Dustin didn’t know whose bats he was using during BP.
“Those were Yuni Betancourt’s bats. Don’t worry, plenty of hits left in them.”
Someone should tell him that he has enough money in the bank now that he doesn’t have to shop at Ross anymore, too.
That shirt was awful.
If this one is going to be painful and Jack Zduriencik brought in 8/10 players listed, then what does that say about him?
Is it me, or is Kruger high on crack?
“Here Comes The Rabbit?” What does Bill Krueger smoke?
Games with no Ichiro in them make me sad, sad, sad!
Wak went all Ichiro-esque on us, by saying he looked deeply into his eyes and did not believe that he should go.
And no, Krueger, I don’t go to the dog races.
billy krueger haikus are myfavorite. what was it tonight?
He was just yelling rabbit, rabbit, rabbit! at us, this the crack suggestions.
lmao
Oh, Hannahan.
Ichiro’s first game back in April was also vs. the Angels. Anyone remember what he did?
If we’re in pain then the Royals are in agony.
French and Saunders …. la ladela la la
he just emanates a glow of catching goodness.
Ichiro’s first game back in April was also vs. the Angels. Anyone remember what he did?I was there. It was very, very cool.
I remember looking up and thinking “Man, I think he got under it a little bit too much”, then looking down to see where it peaked, and then noticed that by the time I looked down, it was nearly over the wall.
Plus, the Griffey home run the same night, about 10 seats to the left, and 1 row down.
And it was Ichiro’s first game playing in the same game as Griffey (at least on the same team).
wow. washburn gave up 5 runs tonight against the rays w/o recording an out. oooouuuuuccccchhhhh
It’s pretty amazing that the Mariners are running out 6 or 7 AAAA players and some people, including those in the organization, still claim they’re in the wild card race.
Just a random thought: Has a mariner gotten a hit with 2 outs and a runner in scoring position yet this year?
Mike Sweeney – Designated Hugger
-Well he did clean out Waks 18lb salmon. That will get you into a lineup when your out of a playoff race.
Why couldn’t Wlad hit like Vlad?
gee… didn’t see this coming. French just throws it down the middle… a la brandon morrow in May
French is challenging RRS for the best Washburn impersonation.
Thank god it’s finally over.
The Mariners are batting so not just yet.
How did I miss Beltre’s testicles finally being cured?
You sure can tell that there’s a talent gap between the two teams…
I don’t know… have you been watching them this whole time?
I’m not an expert or anything but MLB Gameday is calling Pitches 2-5 to Abreu as:
86 MPR Changeup
86 MPH Fastball
86 MPH Changeup
89 MPH Fastball
Really? I think the algorithm may be off…
Joe Saunders has terrible stuff tonight and can’t throw a strike – he’s awfully lucky he gets to face the Mariners.
And Hannahan is so bad offensively it haunts me.
Can we just snatch Ackley out of the stands and put him in the lineup?
With bated breath.
Sumbitch.
It’s gonna be a long game.
I haven’t seen Hannahan play in person this season.
That sounds like a tune by The Chieftains that they’re playing when he walks to the plate.
the m’s have 2 hits in 13 innings. as Wak would say ”that’s awfully awful”
Final score? 9-1?
We’ll get the pity score in the 9th, I call.
Que Sera Sera…
i bet my dad last night a round of golf at chambers bay that Saunders would shut out the M’s. halfway to free golf at chambers woot woot!
Just looking at the starting lineup BA’s, everyone in LAA’s lineup, except for Kendrick, has a higher BA than everyone in the M’s lineup. And the way Gut has been hitting (hot and cold) that may change by the end of the game.
How did this come to be?
That’s quite the game they have going on in Texas!
Rob Johnson, never swing a bat in my line of vision ever again.
I am so set on Adam Moore making sure I don’t have to see the daily Rob ever again.
LA is on fire!
I mean LAA and LAD.
Sorry, I couldn’t resist.
Uh, oh, they’re to nine already with two more innings to go. Should I up my guess of 9-1?
Damn.
Hey fellas, Ackley already signed.
No need to prove to him how much you need him.
Thanks for the swell link! That made my visit here entirely worthwhile. Wait, was there a game being played tonight?
17 consecutive innings without a run.
Looks like nearly the entire homeplate fancy seats have emptied out. And there’s a definite echo quality to the PA system.
Come to think of it, I bet I could get an echo here too.
HeeeeLLLLlllooooo???
Why do I still waste time watching this team?
Oh look at those nice Angels putting in the guy with the almost-double-figures ERA in the ninth.
Any danger we can score a consolation run?
Nope…
Now the Angels have acquired Thome and *giggle* John Garland. Talk about a cancellation effect.
Wrong LA, kenshabby. The Dodgers got them, not the Angels.
Is it safe to bring out the women and children now?
That beatdown by the Angels was scary, almost as scary as this news item.
[that was unnecessary]
