Good Lord, you would have bitched if he threw 30 pitches because Fister would have sat too long and lost his groove.

If you're talking to me.....then please shut the fuck up, because you know nothing, I don;t care how long Fister sits, I want to get Hellickson out of the game before 9 full innings like we saw last night.

If you're talking to someone else, still shut the fuck up.

Shut the fuck up? All the words in the English language and that is what you can come up with. If you knew anything about baseball you would know you normally get one good pitch to hit in an at bat. The ball was crushed, it just happened to be right at someone. Relax, it was just one inning.

Some people are negative regardless bud, just let it go.

Very nice to see this from Fister, I would like to see him step up and maybe move into the #2 spot in the rotation. I know it will take a lot more than 1 outing and this one is only 4 innings old but it would be nice to see.

Rich what? Richmond![/color]]Some people are negative regardless bud, just let it go.

I'm negative because I want to see more than 6 pitches in an innings from the opposing pitcher?

I'm negative because last night we let a pitcher go 9 innings without breaking a sweat?

I think you are accused of being negative because you aren't putting it in context. There were 2 balls that were crushed. You wouldn't compain if they fell in. You haven't complained that Raburn swung at the 1st pitch and doubled.

Inge would have made that play.......


.....and thrown to second base.

If they fell in it would not have been a 6 pitch inning.

And I did complain about the pitch count that inning.

KC....I remember 2009 so: what would be the proper time to begin to figure AND SHARE magic numbers? I say if this game goes the way it has we should honor Fister by figuring it. Any objections? I WILL of course defer to your great wisdom.....

Okay, okay, I see we are all a little grumpy from last nights loss by inge, myself included. Lets just win this game.
