Ouch!
Cunningham plunked on the head.
no joke!
God rest his soul.
he’s got to run the bases now
knocked helemt off
Hit on the earhole—I’m fucked up now.
…from the Twins training staff, who probably have a better track record than ours?
You don’t take your chances.
Blicks - June 8, 2009 reply
send him for xrays/ct/mri, just to be sure. head injuries aren’t something to be f’d with.
I know he’s got a helmet, and should be okay. But it’s still creepy when the ball bangs right off the helmet like that.
yeaouch

Good job, Hannahan!!!!
OMG AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite non-HR hit.
Why did we call up Barton?

I’m still shocked.
HANNAHAN comes through with regularity for a .200 hitter.
last thread to nico:
" look at it this way: if tolbert can do it, so can hannahan"
Because it CAN get worse.
Do you really buy into the defensive metrics enough to prefer Hannahan to Fields? Instinct tells me I’d rather have Fields, but what does that really mean, anyway
Yeah, that would be entertaining
Wreckonized - June 8, 2009 reply
They know what they’re doing.
If I’ve ever said anything about hannahan.
…it’s just the .218 average…
Or clone him. Whatever
card-carrying member (and co-founder) of the anti-zombie braineaters association, I don’t endorse using them at all, except for target practice.
4IP 1H 0R 3BB 7Ks
misplay that double by Hannahan.
And, seriously, how green can a valley get?!
Maybe it’s for the best that he’s not a Met anymore…
schmifty - June 8, 2009 reply
Don’t let the Twins break another streak.
Make them pay for there mistakes
and vice versa
Someone stop that Harris. Please.

Y’all keep an eye on everything, ya hear? I’ll be back for the post-game….
Gritty.
see you later.
or booz
Cabrera walks after starting 0-2. Gotta like that.
are they putting Barton in the outfield?
RF. Now.
and bring a friend
I like you.
my fav line
Fuck me he made it
every ball is going to be hit to him.
Why expect anything different?
Don’t send Cunningham back out there…
Now go stand in right field.
well, come on in, then.
you bring bbq?
but I did just enjoy a bit of leftover hamburger helper.
ZigFan31 - June 8, 2009 reply
Has he been running bases LOL
come on
Barton ‘cos he doesn’t have one. Such professionals.
only if barton can be professional too and play that outfield good
He gone.
I was thinking the same thing.
They show that commercial here. Which is strange because there’s not a Jack within 700 miles, but…
He loved Jack in the Box, but we don’t have them anywhere near here anymore
I have no clue how they do anything in Florida.
I do know I sold a pair of magnet to two of the hill people rapists from Deliverance this morning.
I may have been having unsolicited and unwanted gay sex.
they were creepy rednecks, mike. c’mon.
and you’ll be bald, surrounded by monkeys sacrificing water buffalo, and mumbling about “The horror! The horror!”
So, uh, I left for a moment, came back, Twins were up 3-0, left again, saw that the A’s tied the game. Should I stay here or leave again?
walkoff baltimore chop - June 8, 2009 reply
But something has to be wrong with you.
Crap.
Good crooked number.
And, it’s better than being down 3-0 too.
press R for reload AK
…am I thinking of someone else? Of all the people to play RF…
And ANers know that I’m not always a ray of optimistic sunshine
This shit’s ours.
We ain’t backing down from this. They are.
I believe you have my stapler
BleedGreen - June 8, 2009 reply
That’s bad
Who’s on first.

…it’s just the .218 average…
DDroney - June 8, 2009
I say we feed Harris to the zombies
adragon - June 8, 2009
or course his glove
adragon - June 8, 2009
Unless we can trade for him.
Or clone him. Whatever
alox - June 8, 2009
that would be an acceptable use of zombies, though as a
card-carrying member (and co-founder) of the anti-zombie braineaters association, I don’t endorse using them at all, except for target practice.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Gio so far...
4IP 1H 0R 3BB 7Ks
Syphon - June 8, 2009
You sure that's not Matt Young?
Nick - June 8, 2009
Pretty sure yes. :)
Syphon - June 8, 2009
O-Cab will give us the lead now.
ElQuesoCapitan - June 8, 2009
Nobody has mentioned how it was of Gomez to completely
misplay that double by Hannahan.
OldhamA - June 8, 2009
how cool? how helpful? how gracious? how green was my valley?
stormtown - June 8, 2009
how green was your valley?
And, seriously, how green can a valley get?!
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Generous. Sorry, doing several things at once.
OldhamA - June 8, 2009
in all fairness, he was probaly shocked as hell that jack hit the gap on the fly
Deborah51 - June 8, 2009
+ a lot
ohtobe21likehuston - June 8, 2009
Oh wait. Were you talking about Jack himself?
ohtobe21likehuston - June 8, 2009
i was cutting gomez slack for his misplay
Deborah51 - June 8, 2009
Aw Go-Go
Maybe it’s for the best that he’s not a Met anymore…
schmifty - June 8, 2009
That's a sweet nickname.
OldhamA - June 8, 2009
More runs, please.
Don’t let the Twins break another streak.
iglew - June 8, 2009
I agree
Make them pay for there mistakes
adragon - June 8, 2009
O cab!!!
Wreckonized - June 8, 2009
Barton in the dugout sighting
ElQuesoCapitan - June 8, 2009
Let's see if he can play RF
worldblee - June 8, 2009
Smiliing adoringly at Sweeney
and vice versa
schmifty - June 8, 2009
they're apparently taking a bath together after the game.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Someone stop that Harris. Please.
ironliver - June 8, 2009
Harris...Haaaarris.........
SwisherThresher - June 8, 2009
Wow
Hannahan pulled a Crosby.
Flashfire - June 8, 2009
In public?
Nick - June 8, 2009
I think that's illegal.
Even in Oakland.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
TWSS
beat you to it mike
adragon - June 8, 2009
Well done sir.
mikev - June 8, 2009
She's offering legal advice now?
A reminder for those who missed it, “TWSS” means “that’s what she said”, not “hey, that post sounds dirty”.
iglew - June 8, 2009
he's a between-innings
obstetrician?
AV - June 8, 2009
Okay, I gotta go to my softball game
Y’all keep an eye on everything, ya hear? I’ll be back for the post-game….
gigglingone - June 8, 2009
Hit a couple doubles for us
worldblee - June 8, 2009
Drag bunts are the way to go.
Gritty.
OldhamA - June 8, 2009
but it takes so much time with the makeup and the wig...
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
have fun, gigs!
see you later.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Bring more cupcakes
or booz
adragon - June 8, 2009
if only Cabrera and Kennedy could get hot at the same time
DDroney - June 8, 2009
there's a dirty joke in there somewhere
Deborah51 - June 8, 2009
I like this working the count by Cabrera
pookeyguru - June 8, 2009
Coo Coo
Cabrera walks after starting 0-2. Gotta like that.
pookeyguru - June 8, 2009
ah man
are they putting Barton in the outfield?
jakebmill - June 8, 2009
Ohh.. Barton gonna play RF?
Syphon - June 8, 2009
Would guess so
worldblee - June 8, 2009
throws chair...
nothinlikethetown - June 8, 2009
catches chair with one hand.
Syphon - June 8, 2009
you.
RF. Now.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Where my plane ticket sir?
Syphon - June 8, 2009

Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009

nothinlikethetown - June 8, 2009

Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Worse english accent ever

Fuck me he made it
adragon - June 8, 2009

nothinlikethetown - June 8, 2009
Frank Francisco Strikes Back!
nothinlikethetown - June 8, 2009
And you know
every ball is going to be hit to him.
bear88 - June 8, 2009
Of course
Why expect anything different?
pookeyguru - June 8, 2009
Oh good, Cunningham gave his OF glove to Barton.
Don’t send Cunningham back out there…
gigglingone - June 8, 2009
Welcome back to the A's, Daric.
Now go stand in right field.
Flashfire - June 8, 2009
GYMNASTICS!
mikev - June 8, 2009
Whatever, johnny come lately.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Better than not at all.
mikev - June 8, 2009
true.
well, come on in, then.
you bring bbq?
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Sadly no
but I did just enjoy a bit of leftover hamburger helper.
mikev - June 8, 2009
Mini buffalo chicken sandwiches!
ZigFan31 - June 8, 2009
Gardenhire has bad hammy
Has he been running bases LOL
Trainman - June 8, 2009
AK 47!!!!!
come on
Wreckonized - June 8, 2009
make 'em pay
Wreckonized - June 8, 2009
Got to love the A's - Cunningham hands his outfielder's glove to
Barton ‘cos he doesn’t have one. Such professionals.
OldhamA - June 8, 2009
He probably stole it from Crosby
Nick - June 8, 2009
hee hee hee
stormtown - June 8, 2009
now
only if barton can be professional too and play that outfield good
Wreckonized - June 8, 2009
He's a C/1B/shocking 3B so I doubt it. He's no Brandon Inge....
OldhamA - June 8, 2009
C'mon AK!
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Swarzak
He gone.
Blicks - June 8, 2009
Can't believe the moral police don't get the stoner ordering the tacos baNnED
ohtobe21likehuston - June 8, 2009
could they have a drunk person going through a drive-thru?
stormtown - June 8, 2009
No way
ohtobe21likehuston - June 8, 2009
I don't think so.
I was thinking the same thing.
They show that commercial here. Which is strange because there’s not a Jack within 700 miles, but…
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Yeah, that commercial pretty much makes my dad cry
He loved Jack in the Box, but we don’t have them anywhere near here anymore
schmifty - June 8, 2009
weird, huh?
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
How do people in FLA change tires, by stacking wood blocks under their cars?
Nick - June 8, 2009
dude,
I have no clue how they do anything in Florida.
I do know I sold a pair of magnet to two of the hill people rapists from Deliverance this morning.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
You got a pretty mouth
ohtobe21likehuston - June 8, 2009
I think if my rocker funky sign monkey wouldn't have been there,
I may have been having unsolicited and unwanted gay sex.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
squeal like a pig, boy
ohtobe21likehuston - June 8, 2009
as opposed to solicited and wanted
mikev - June 8, 2009
of course.
they were creepy rednecks, mike. c’mon.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
Some day, an ANer is going to be sent to FLA to find you
and you’ll be bald, surrounded by monkeys sacrificing water buffalo, and mumbling about “The horror! The horror!”
Nick - June 8, 2009
QOTM, gratuitous self-referential edition.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
but you have a lot of BK's
ohtobe21likehuston - June 8, 2009
Lets go A;s
Wreckonized - June 8, 2009
So, uh, I left for a moment, came back, Twins were up 3-0, left again, saw that the A’s tied the game. Should I stay here or leave again?
walkoff baltimore chop - June 8, 2009
Both
idunno723 - June 8, 2009
seriously, can you do both?
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
You can always try...
But something has to be wrong with you.
idunno723 - June 8, 2009
At least we got the 3
worldblee - June 8, 2009
AK died.
ElQuesoCapitan - June 8, 2009
So much for that rally
Crap.
pookeyguru - June 8, 2009
3 runs is still a rally
Good crooked number.
worldblee - June 8, 2009
Yeah for the A's it definitely is
And, it’s better than being down 3-0 too.
pookeyguru - June 8, 2009
he ran out of bullets
press R for reload AK
Wreckonized - June 8, 2009
adragon - June 8, 2009
Watch the first batter to find Barton with a fly ball
Trainman - June 8, 2009
As long as they don't miss him with a fly ball
worldblee - June 8, 2009
Isn't Barton really bad with fly balls to 1st?
…am I thinking of someone else? Of all the people to play RF…
DDroney - June 8, 2009
He had one hit him in the face last year.
OldhamA - June 8, 2009
I've had a lot of balls hit me in the face.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
I think I love you.
mikev - June 8, 2009
We don't want to hear about your time in prison
adragon - June 8, 2009
ok, outman...let's have a shutdown here
Deborah51 - June 8, 2009
Kennedy at RF
ElQuesoCapitan - June 8, 2009
I almost thought the Barton to 3B experiment had begun.
OldhamA - June 8, 2009
AK is in right
Trainman - June 8, 2009
Kennedy in RF
DDroney - June 8, 2009
we're winning this shit tonight, fellers.
Leopold Bloom - June 8, 2009
I have a good feeling about this, too
And ANers know that I’m not always a ray of optimistic sunshine
GreenNGoldSooner - June 8, 2009

He was leading off the inning?
What more can he do
adragon - June 8, 2009
Spartacust = Chuck Norris
