Los Angeles Dodgers at San Diego Padres, Apr 5, 2008 12:55 PM PDT
Back to rooting for the Padres. I guarantee you Jake Peavy will try to win today's game so convincingly that the Commissioners Office will give us credit for a win yesterday, even though we lost. They'll say, "Jeez... Did you see what Peavy did? That seriously deserves two wins." If it weren't specifically forbidden by the rules of baseball and several chapters and verses in the Bible, I think Jake Peavy would have already hunted down and eaten most of the Dodgers to guarantee his win.
Next best thing, Jake! Just go for the next best thing!
GO PADRES!!!

Good thing about 10 dollar beers
at the Premier club. Don't remember the 7th inning. So in my world, it never happened. My head is still killing me though. Drama, can you make me a bloody mary real quick?

Okay
I haven't been told by MLB.tv that I am BLACKED OUT, and it doesn't say that it's a national blackout, so I'm hoping that I'm in. But it's not DOING anything, so I don't know. . . .

You're so sweet
I'm in. No indication I'm supposed to be blacked out. Maybe they figured out that when they input the zip codes to select the different markets for Fox that they can do the same thing for all of us on MLB tv.

The rule
Is that when games are shown on Fox, everyone in the U.S. (and 5 other countries) is blacked out from *any* game until 5 pm, or something like that...basically, Fox wants only their television broadcasts to be watched when they're broadcasting them...the fact that you're able to watch any game on there today is a fluke, but I PROMISE I won't tell the authorities.

Rule says
That if you catch a ball and go out of the field of play, it's an error on the fielder and a free base for each runner. Bard technically caught the ball out of the field of play (inside the first step of the dugout), so the runner on third scored.

Meanwhile, in Detroit,
White Sox outfielder Carlos Quentin caught a fly ball about 10' short of the warning track in left field, then loaded up and threw a ball ON THE FLY to the first baseman, who never had to move off the bag to catch the ball to double up a wandering Edgar Renteria. Really an unbelievable play, seek out that game's highlights tonight to watch it. Crazy stuff.

I miss
Steak & Shake. I didn't really think their shakes were any better than, say, Jack in the Box's, but they were good late-night greasy food where mexican food wasn't around to do the job.

Steak-n-Shake is awesome
but how much can u do with a music degree? But I know many Super seniors (although 7 years is impressive) You're talking to a guy who got OUT of the community college cycle and sucessfully transferred, so that's not gonna be me man!
