well, to start the second half Big Tex has hit 3 dongs and has 7 RBIs in Baltimore off Chen. maybe he read my post and is trying to prove me wrong! :hihi:
the braves are making whatever hair i have left, turn gray... 15-12 in the 11th inning? 2 blown saves? lol goodness...
piazza got lucky with a nice dong tonight. he also hit a home run. of the home run nicknames i can think up right now: dong jack dinger tater big fly round-tripper 4-bagger i like "jackson" the best. i like when people use plenty of baseball slang. bash a jackson with the sacks drunk, 4 ribeyes, grand salami.
finally won... braves are now 5.5 back in the wildcard, and 8-3 in their last 11 and 11-6 in their last 17
You'd like Milo Hamilton for the 'Stros. Sometimes I think he makes up phrases on the spot, and they're generally hilarious. The most recent example that I can recall is a line drive to Biggio, and Milo said, "Wow, that ball went right to his kitchen." There are widely varying opinions on Milo, who is about as acerbic as anybody in the game, but his phrases can be pretty funny.
most outsiders hate him with an indescribable passion, especially the nicknames. growing up listening to them, i never thought twice about it or even when it started. maybe its just him though it has been pointed out to me by many people. bidge, baggy. come to think of it i guess it does sound kinda gay. he does it with every name possible for them. is it ok for me to drop jorge sosa yet?
if you need saves, get Ken Ray. His ERA is under 3, and he was good when he was the closer before. He just blew one save, and the hitter hit a good pitch.
Andruw Jones just hit the longest HR in Petco Park history. Braves up 4-0 after 4 1/2. Sure some reliever will blow it.
They'll have to try pretty hard to blow this one...now a 9-0 game. Although our bullpen probably still has it in them. If we can hold on to this one we have won 9 of 12 games... look out wildcard, the braves are comin
