Open Thread: 3/10, Rangers vs. Padres

[editor's note, by jbox]Game is in progress Drama writes the open thread. Gaslamp Ball in no way endorses the USD. SDSU lost to Oregon State big time, when I left it was 22-3. College games go on forever, took 4.5 hours.

Justin Germano taking on Jamey Wright and the Rangers at Peoria.

I'm happy cuz we're getting the Channel 4 feed with Matty and Mud on MLB.TV!

"Mud, you're the best, man. Anybody on Earth that doesn't like Mark Grant...they got, they got...problems."

Go Padres!

Go Toreros!

Way to pick up the slack
Nice work, sir.

Love the open thread with TV!

Tad
Can you imagine if this guy hits .300 for us and plays in 140 games?

by Drama on Mar 10, 2008 7:19 PM PDT reply actions  

Hairy!
GREAT catch in center!!

by Drama on Mar 10, 2008 7:28 PM PDT reply actions  

WooHoo!!!
Open thread and 4SD. The wait is over.

Great catch!
And great Philly Bill impression from Matty to end the frame.

Gotta love Adrian's defense
Guy should totally be a gold glove/MVP candidate.

Solid outing
from Germano. 3 IP, 1 H.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:42 PM PDT reply actions  

Germano
Justin has really been pitching well lately. Throwing groundballs, getting guys out...not bad.

by Drama on Mar 10, 2008 7:43 PM PDT reply actions  

Question is
What's gonna happen the third time someone sees him?

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:44 PM PDT up reply actions  

I know...I know...
Thanks for throwing the glass of cold water in my face...I needed it.

by Drama on Mar 10, 2008 7:45 PM PDT up reply actions  

Trust me
I'd love for the guy to step up and take the fifth spot (well, not quite as much as I'd like LeBlanc, but ya know). Justin's a good kid. If he can develop that cutter to further keep people off balance, he'll be alright. We don't need him to be a #3 guy, just league average.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:46 PM PDT up reply actions  

USD!
Now with a 10-point lead on Gonzaga with 5:49 remaining!

Damn
He could have scored on that. Oh well.

Nice hit by Iguchi.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:50 PM PDT reply actions  

Hit-by-pitch
Stolen base, sacrifice, wild pitch.

Beautiful.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:52 PM PDT reply actions  

Sorry
Just trying to get in regular season form. It's been awhile.

And seriously, I was freaking out. I thought we lost another CF.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:53 PM PDT up reply actions  

It's okay
we're just gonna be a little bit more strict.  We understand at times, but we'll try and keep it to a minimum.

by jbox on Mar 10, 2008 7:54 PM PDT up reply actions  

No prob
Glad to be apprised of the new regs. Will do my best to tone it down and keep it mostly family friendly.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:55 PM PDT up reply actions  

Great
Hairston's out for the rest of the game. Supposedly nothing serious.

Stupid Rangers.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:57 PM PDT reply actions  

He'll definitely make
the club as a utility OF. Where's Crabbe tonite? I haven't seen him around lately.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 7:59 PM PDT up reply actions  

No clue.
Is he going to China?

by Drama on Mar 10, 2008 7:59 PM PDT up reply actions  

I thought I'd heard that
but I haven't seen anything recently. I just hope he's OK. They said Hairston's supposed to start both Beijing games, but who knows with him going out early tonite.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 8:00 PM PDT up reply actions  

He's not on
the list

Stop reaching out
Khalil. If it's out there, go the other way. Please.

Toreros
They made the tourney. Wow.

by Drama on Mar 10, 2008 8:05 PM PDT reply actions  

Why do you care?
The WCC doesn't even play their tournies on championship weekend, like all respectable conferences.
You must defeat my dragon punch to stand a chance.

by Sam (sdsuaztec4) on Mar 11, 2008 1:02 AM PDT up reply actions  

Ummmm
They may not play it on championship weekend...but at least they're in.

Besides, it's good for San Diego.

by Drama on Mar 11, 2008 6:25 AM PDT up reply actions  

Was screaming my head off last night
Very happy for the Toreros.  Finally made a really good hire in Grier.

Chase
gets points for avoiding the catchers tag. That was so Little League hustle. Love that kid.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 8:07 PM PDT reply actions  

Aid.
Gold Glover. Period.

by Drama on Mar 10, 2008 8:12 PM PDT reply actions  

Nice flick shot
Gerut. I think he'll be helpful in Petco.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 8:20 PM PDT reply actions  

Whoa there Jody
Let's not get picked off first.

a little pick me up
he always has to brag doesn't he? is "man" is favorite word? africa has a whole new meaning to me.

That's the wierd thing about ST
I read all of these people's names in the box scores and the like, and then when I actually see them, I'm completely surprised.

For example, there's no way in hell I would have ever guessed Chip Ambres was black. Don't ask me why, just envisioned a really preppy white guy.

Wonderful, a hurt pitcher. Just what we need.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 8:28 PM PDT reply actions  

Also
I first though Tadahito Iguchi was Oscar Robles. Anyone else see that?

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 8:29 PM PDT up reply actions  

yeah
i seriously thought so too
"Matty, what are you still doing here?"...

by TheVinylCrocodile on Mar 10, 2008 9:13 PM PDT up reply actions  

Me too.
I had pictured him as basically Richie Cunningham. He's an instant Reggie Cleveland All-Star.

Yup
Just like Khalil and Reggie Willits.

by Phantom on Mar 10, 2008 8:38 PM PDT up reply actions  

Could Estes
get some decent defense behind him in his outings? Let it rip, Drama.

SD Commercials...
they are a thing of beauty. Seriously though... who is letting these people get away with this garbage.

yikes
trevor and the long hair..i think it makes him look younger.

He should keep growing it all out
and dye it neon green or something to distract batters.
