[Clapp]

Incredible.

[Runnys]

BULLSHIT!!!

[Giff]

That's one hell of a play from Brandon Phillips.

[Runnys]

I thought ties went to the runner? FUCK!

[Clapp]

He was out.

I'm not sure he was, it was awfully close. It could have went either way.

[Ace]

When a dude makes a play like that, if it's close, runner is out.

Like Buehrle's (sp?) insane play on Opening Day. I'm pretty sure the guy was safe.

[Ace]

Son of a bitch.

[Giff]

That Phillips play <i>really</i> hurts now. That ball was demolished.

[Clapp]

GOD DAMMIT FUCKING SON OF A BITCH!

Not wrong about his stuff. You can't tell with any of these kids until they get into these situations. And when you have a bullpen full of them, regardless of their ability and stuff, at least a couple of them are going to fail with this pressure in front of huge crowds. This is too damn predictable and makes me shake my head that people were actually okay with it. We need to overpay for a legitimate setup man if we have to. Maybe 2. It's that big of a need.

Yeah. I don't want to hear this theory of keeping young unproven kids in the pen to save money over proven exspensive vets anymore. This is absolute bullshit.

[Runnys]

Nice to see Lee start hitting.

Now we need Ramirez to be Mr. Clutch again.

With the naked eye, sure it could have gone either way. But in slo-mo, the ball beat him.

Nope, he was out. Replays clearly showed that.

[Ace]

Fuck, that's two wallshots for Ramirez tonight.
