M.O.B.S.

What is the deal with the offense?

Everyone’s hitting pretty well, we like the OBP, and yet they are absolutely incapable of scoring runs before the 6th

by ThaWalrus9 on Apr 19, 2010 11:26 PM EDT reply actions  

you can't really say that

with the several comeback wins already this year. They just cannot score early in games though…

We need one of those things

that are kind of like points in basketball or goals in hockey. What are those called again?

instead of “M.O.B.S.” it should be just plain “SOB”. Stranded on Base, son of a bitch, and what we all do when the tigers can’t drive in runs
