Doesn't make sense at all...
Seems sense would say walk Hank because 2 out of 3 of Borbon, Salty, Davis aren’t nearly as likely to bring a runner in to win the thing.

I'd pitch to him
…because normally he’s an easy out. Power threat, yeah, but two hits in one night is a stretch for Blalock. Figuring he was weary, I’d try to get him out.
by Black Francis on Jul 1, 2009 10:34 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
He'd been hitting the crap out of the ball tonight, he's actually pretty good versus righties in general, plus yo've got a slap hitting, wide-eyed rookie on deck.
I guess they might’ve pinch-hit Andruw for Borbon, but I’d rather pitch to him there than Hankles, too.
Just a horrible, horrible decision by Senor Fatty McFat-Fat.

The answer to that
Angels = “aggressive” team
They don’t care about stats. Agressiveness is all that matters. So what if Chone Figgins gets thrown out on the bases. He was playing aggressive. And Angels baseball is all about aggressiveness
by chrisR on Jul 1, 2009 10:39 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Agressive is only good if you know when to be agressive and when to hold the line
It seems like they used to do a good job of deciding when to do that, but this year they’ve over-agressed their way out of some games against us.

I HATE, HATE, HATE the freaking Angels. I hope Scioscia is crying in the clubhouse. The Rangers winning that game and the Angels getting a gut shot are about equally thrilling IMO.

I think they were trying to pitch around Hank and hope he got himself out.
The catcher called for the ball way outside, but the pitcher missed and put it down main street.
by Redcaps on Jul 1, 2009 10:31 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
No sense there.
If you’re going to pitch around Blalock, you have to make sure you don’t put one anywhere near the plate.

I saw them in '81 at the Cotton Bowl on Halloween in a torrential downpour
and in ’89 & 94 (also at Cotton Bowl).
They’re my favorite band of all time but fit into the class of “very good” instead of great when seeing them live.

It's because the venues are too big.
I was at that ‘94 show as well, gotta light mist which was really cool in the spotlights. But yeah, the intimacy isn’t there. The album ‘Stripped’ makes me jealous because those shows were all recorded at small venues. I can only imagine.
The cool thing about seeing them in TX is they pull out their country songs- Far Away Eyes, Dead Flowers, Sweet Virginia, Wild Horses, etc.

Imagine seeing them in '81 at the Cotton Bowl with no big video screens
when it rained 4 inches in two hours?
It was a huge drunkfest plus everyone around me was doing acid (bought something called “Mickey Mouse”) and I was caught in this huge storm with great music.
Fabulous T Birds, ZZ Top opened and the clouds just kept getting darker and darker before all weather hell broke loose. It was probably the closest thing to Woodstock I could imagine.
KRichards basically said “Fuck it” and strode out on a catwalk to play the first few chords of “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” with his cigarette still in his mouth and the crowd went wild. He was definitely the balls of the group.
We are in agreeance about their country songs…love ’em.

Beggars Banquet might be the most important Stones album because that’s the one when they decided to go out on their own road instead of following The Beatles trail. Love those “Stray Cat Blues.”
Can you imagine the onions it took for them to start recording country songs a year after Sgt.Pepper (or their version of that "Satanic Majestys Request)?
I love the Stones but 8-10 songs are in the trust tree. This is one of my all-time faves and it’s always in the trust tree.

Yep, Banquet separated the men(Stones) from the boys(Beatles), and I like the Beatles.

I have no problems with Ozzie
He speaks his mind and doesn’t worry if gashes get their feelings hurt. He’s also got a ring and went to the playoffs last year.
Dusty? He’s managed some pretty good teams although I wouldn’t want my son to pitch for him.
Ron Washington is without a doubt the dumbest manager I’ve seen when you combine how he looks, talks and game strategy.

Ozzie is a loudmouth asshole who disrupts his ownclubhouse and trips up his own offense because he's in love with "small ball"
Dusty Baker is a bumbling imbecile who not only treats pitchers like rag dolls, he also doesn’t understand the basic premise that people reaching base is a good thing.
Wash pulls a lot of annoying an dumb things, but he’s not quite as close-minded and stupid as Ozzie and Dusty. I wouldn’t want either of those two managing my baseball team if they where paying me a billion dollars to let them do it.
Of course, in a perfect world I wouldn’t really want Wash managing my baseball team either, but the point is, if it where a choice between the three, Wash is by far the least of the three evils.

I'm pretty sure that isn't esxclusively aimed at me
But FWIW, I’m usually not one to poke fun at Wash’s accent or the way he looks or anything. There might’ve been times when I’ve gotten aggravated with one of his decisions and gotten caught up in others poking fun at him in that fashion, I’m sure, but it’s really not one of my bits. In fact, I’ll concede that on a human level he seems like a nice guy, and his players like him and are willing to play for him – which is more than you could say for Buck, for example.
My problem with him is pretty much limited to the fact that I don’t really think being a nice guy makes up for all the F’d up lineup cards, playing time decisions and in-game management. It’s his baseball intelligence that I’m questioning when I call him a dumbass, not his personal intelligence, and in the purely serious sense I don’t really see what the latter has to do with the former.

Well, it's over now
But Ryan Tatusko took a no-hitter into the 9th inning.
With 1 out in the bottom of the 9th, Hector Gomez singled for Modesto and broke it up.
2 outs now, Tatusko working on a CG SHO 1 hitter.

Trust me ghost...
Nobody was happier than me to see Blalock hit that bomb.
Nobody.
I listened to the game in the truck on the way home and high fived my son while driving 80 mph and then loved it even more when I saw it on Tivo.
My favorite part was listening to the unquestioned team leader, MYoung (both on radio & tv) saying how happy he was for Hank F Blalock because he knows exactly how badly he’s been getting dicked around (while trying to hit 5 run HR’s to get back on the radar) while this team watches Kris Davis shit his pants almost every night.
When you watch the replay of the game, MYoung is hugging Blalock the entire time because he knows.
Not intended to be a buzzkill but tonight was a long time comin’ and I hope the stupid sonofabitch that fills out the line-up noticed who showed up on the most important game of the year to date.

Too short
but that was my reaction in the truck on the way home.
The bus is empty and it’s been that way for a while but I never got out of the driver’s seat.
If he plays as much as Kris Davis has played to date, he’s gonna hit 25-30 bombs so you might jump on while you can.

And Davis took a 1 for 4
with no walks against a RHP so he’s rocking a 2 for 18 (1 for 8 the last two nights when the rest of the team was killing the Angels).
The Friday/Saturday line-ups will be most interesting.

Eh.
If Blalock played 1st, who would you DH against the righty? Anyway, I’m praising Blalock’s approach tonight. And it’s that exact approach he needs if he wants to be effective against lefties, and get that playing time. I hope he keeps it up, I’d love to eat my words.

Kris Davis is hitting .148 v leftys.
.148.
His ass sits the rest of the season v leftys.
I’d have Blalock in the line-up v the leftys and hitting 6 or 7.
With Cruz hurting his back and Wash saying Borbon isn’t going to sit…hard to say what happens with DH.
We may need to explore the possibility of getting Cruz out of the OF and making him the DH when we play leftys.

Observation
Hank F Blalock was the best player in the most important game of the year for the team.
A double and 2 dingers (including one of the most memorable walk-offs in years).
Why did Michael Young do the post-game show for radio & television?
Does Blalock know he’s on his way out, feel like he’s getting dicked by the organization and say fuck you?
Just sayin.

section 31 row 6 is where nolan sits
right next to the gate so he can get in and out of the clubhouse when he wants something.

if he needs to talk to milly or ron or sees something he'll hit them up down there in between innings
when i sat in row 8 section 31 we were right behind him and he’d go into the clubhouse and grab waters and sunflower seeds and stuff

Any1 else think MY plays way too far back at 3b
and it directly led to the guy stealing 3rd? i know its b/c he used to play SS and is used to being that far back, Arod does the same thing at 3b but he just cant sit that far back in all situations, and some1 has to know he needs help on play to play positioning every once in a while still.
just makes me upset to see that repeated position flaw

Yeah he goes too deep
Yet when they are “infield in” he eets up close enough. Maybe compensating for a worry about his reaction time, I don’t know.

yeah i think so to
i guess he probably just needs to spend more time working on those hot shots he’s gotta dive for. diving hasnt ever been his strongsuit so i figure your right and its a compensation thing.

Is now a good time to try to move Blalock?
Definitely can’t slip him through waivers after that, ..

I had a blast at the RedHawks' extra innings win tonight
And was glad to see the Rangers won as well.
P.S. I confused and amused Greg Golson :)

it sucks.
Scout: He was a first-round pick right? Got a huge bonus?
KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.

i dont really diasgree with Scioscia
all we need is a single…even with hank having a good night, he is a .250 hitter and borbon is just as likely to get a single

that said
borbon has what, 3 MLB ABs?
even thouh they would have PHed for him, i still dont think you let him hit (especially when you see LHP/RHP OPS splits on speires)
