Open Thread, 4/5: Padres vs Dodgers
by Dex

Los Angeles @ San Diego
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. . . .

Maybe you'll get away with it in the first week!?
If you get it, it'll be a fluke, but good luck!!
If you don't, you may receive an email at the one you signed up with for fantasy baseball...it may or may not be of use to you :)

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.

Too bad the audio's NOT SYNCHED AT ALL
Maybe it's just a Time-Warner thing, but they're at least 2-3 seconds off, really annoying when looking at Matt/Eric Karros talking.
Also, I love the booth combination.

Iguchi's swinging the bat very well
Ignoring last night, where he was ironically shut down by a Japanese pitcher, he's been on base every game.
Oh and hey Adrian! Pads on bases, like this a lot compared to last night's beating.

Listening to game on the radio in LA
They keep saying that the Dodgers need to bring their A game and that Peavy just "mowed them down" in the top of the first. So nice to hear

What a great job there
Went with the pitch, took what Penny gave him.
Also, Matty, we haven't "bat around" as you said...that would require one more batter to come to the plate.
