I make no promises for updates
Since I won’t know who any of these people are or what they’re position they’re playing, and I’m sure the Braves announcers will be no help.
End of first
Braves 2, Tigers 0. Bonderman gave up a couple doubles, got a K. Lots of doofus plays in the outfield (I’m looking at you, Ryan Raburn). It’s definitely the “H” team out there.
but I thought
I thought Raburn’s middle name was doofus. . .
I shouldn’t say that, I actually like the guy
Since nobody posted it
CF Raburn
LF Damon
RF Ordonez
1B Larish
C- Avila
3B Kelly
2B Sizemore
SS Everett
SP Bonderman (batting)
-——————————————-
CF Melky Cabrera
2B Prado
3B Chipper Jones
C McCann
1B Glaus
SS Escobar
RF Heyward
LF Diaz
SP Kamakawi
-——————————————————————
Bondo gives up two runs on three hits and a BB in the firs two innings.
2- 0 Braves.
Raburn has a single, Avila a double, and Damon a base hit for the Tigers.
flipped on the hockey game at 4-2
And see it go quickly to 4-4.
I’m getting impatient for real baseball, with starting pitchers playing enough to matter and lineups with names I can recognize. ;)

Braves announcers say it should be an Error
and no RBI on the infield grounder
Either way, it’s tied up at 2- 2
that is far less
than my blood-alcohol conent is going to be later tonight

i know it's spring training
but with some of the shortstops we’re seeing from our prospects being decent, he had better hit or he’ll be released.

Well,
I guess his power hasn’t gone away after all.

Yeah,
that was meant to be read in a snarky, sarcastic manner. He’ll be just fine.

yeah, in OT
I’m pretty sure this is the first CCHA Finals NMU is going to since I came up here 10 years ago

I wasn't intending to jinx anything!
Just turned it on, saw hockey, and watched until it was tied – didn’t even know who you were cheering for! :)

Update
Schlereth gives up a hit and a BB but strands them and gets out of it. One K.
A base hit by Frazier, double by Raburn that would have easily scored him, but is held up at third. Don’t know if that was Lamont, but sure sounds like him. Wells with a base knock to drive in Frazier. 4- 3 Tigers.
Rainwater
gives up a hit to Omar Infante, another off his leg with two outs, then retires the side
Still 4- 3 Tigers in the 7th
Yes. Tigs lost to the Yankers earlier, 6- 2
Porcello gave up three unearned runs due to a fielding error by Santiago with the bases loaded and two outs in the second, then a HR to A Roid.
The Yankees announcers
were talking about the game about an hour ago and claimed the A Roid homer probably still hadn’t come down? Was it truly monstrous, or another case of seeing the world through Yankee-colored glasses?
Donnie Kelly
Still in at third base, picks up a base knock for the Tigers’ 10th hit today
Wells in LF for Damon
Boesch in RF for Magglio
Strieby in at 1B for Larish
Diaz in for Avila
Douglas in at 2B for Sizemore
Guez PH for Bondo
Frazier PH for Schlereth
Ha ha, radio announcers
just claimed that in some game last year “for the first time ever, three Japanese pitchers pitched at the same time.” Now that’s a split-squad game.
Think they can finish this in the next 20 minutes?
The grocery store is closing at 9 and all I have is old tortillas.
Finished the cabbage for lunch.
There were great cabbage sales last week, I should have bought more.
I don't understand how
cabbage lost to lettuce as the go-to vegetable. It is infinitely superior!
We are officially off-topic.
don't forget tastier
of course, the smell of boiled cabbage isn’t the best for some people

The Atlanta radio affiliate is WCNN
And the announcers seem to think they are on CNN. Wonk, wonk, wonk…
They just said "there can never be
anything successful in sports if you don’t have an audience in the US."
Hello!!! Soccer?? World’s most financially successful AND popular sport?
Americans have it right
our women and children do very well at soccer, while the men play other games.
Thank you.
I was searching for the appropriate word.
oh no.
old tortillas for dinner AND we might lose
Weinhart in
Bases loaded.
Robbie gets the inning ending double play, Ciriaco flips to Douglas and he drops the ball.
Brent Clevlen pinch running for McCann slides in safely to second.
Bases loaded, one out.
Base hit scores the tying run.
agh
I had a feeling he didn’t blow the save by giving up a run. Stupid dp fail!

I must be hungry
I could not figure out why they were advertising an “express change and tuna clinic”… Some sort of oil connection? Oh, tune-up!
Extra innings
Bravos leave the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth.
Tiger lineup
CF Raburn
LF Wells
RF Boesch
1B Strieby
C- Diaz
3B Kelly
2B Douglas the goat
SS Ciriaco
RP Weinhardt
Another error
on a wild throw to first, but is erased on a DP ball.
Weinhardt still in the game throwing one grounder after another.
Is Selig in the stands???
Tie game.
Robbie Weinhardt pitches another inning, giving up a hit, but retiring the side, and the game is called in a 4- 4 tie after 10 innings.
Weinhardt
despite being pinned with a blown save, on a run that scored because Douglas flubbed a DP ball, I like Robbie not only for a roster spot, but in one of the two late inning jobs that they have available.
