    I didn't get to see the full games and it's impact on the outcome, but the highlights appeared to show the strike zone to be about 12" away from where I expeced to see the umps call it http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

    Nope, my first thought as well.

    And Gerut has to ruin the pattern with a wimpy little run-scoring double.

    I'm not a lawyer (nor did I stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night) and they still haven't determined where this occured, but per the spokesman from the Connecticut State Police - "Video voyeurism laws vary from state to state. In Connecticut, it is considered a felony and can result in a prison sentence of up to five years"

    Nay. I'd like it to be based upon regular season records ("These 162 Games Count"). I'm OK with the All-Star game being an exhibition. During the Brewers down years, all I had to look forward to in those games was hoping for a late inning appearance by the Brewers' lone representative. How many guys got selected but where never seen by their fans last night? One of the MLB Network guys pointed out Cleveland's lone representative being intentionally walked because they were managing to win the game... but if you were managing to win the game, then why not go all the way and have your megastars play more than a few innings (Braun still may not be a Cameron-esque left fielder, but having a RF play LF late in the game seems to have lead to the game being decided on a bad route on the Granderson triple)? More deserving guys don't get selected because of their pitching availability or the requirement that each team needs to be represented (how does that jive with the "this game matters" philosophy? and do players still get contract bonuses for all-star selections... if so, you'd think the questionable final (non)selections would have some beef?) If this is really just because they are embarassed about the 2002 tie, how about a hockey style shoot-out to break a tie - each team sends up three guys for three swings - homerun derby style? Or for the more traditionalists, couldn't a few of those extra spots they keep adding just be designated as "alternate" pitchers that would only appear in the event of extra innings?

    Softball and boating in the spring, summer & fall. Hanging at the hunting cabin and ice shack in the winter (just hanging with the guys, don't actually hunt or fish anymore... enjoy sleeping in the mornings too much for it to be a hobby to get up before sunrise). And have our extended camp alumni group that gets together for community service and social activities all year round.

    Had nearly the exact same experience last week. Flipped the mower on its side at the end of the day to scrape out the build up, then couldn't get it to run continuously the next day (would always start after priming, but then chug and die after a few cycles). Gave up after 10-15 minutes of this and let it sit over the weekend. Went back to work on it this week and everything ran fine... fluids must have settled back where they belonged on their own. If you can't speed up the drying process like Teatoe suggested, then maybe just give it some time to correct itself.

    Originally bought the house in 2001 at 6.25% for 30 years and $800 closing from a national chain bank, then refinanced in 2002 at 5.35% for 20 years for $400 through and local community bank.

    While Wikipedia also explains the run scores, as many consider that skeptical, the "All Expert" site has a more thorough explanation from an ASA Umpire-in-Chief.
  12. TSack27
    I'm going with the run scores. It is not technically a force out as the runner already achieved first base, he is out because he left the base early on the caught ball - I believe the term is something like "live ball appeal". If the run scored before the appeal was made, the run counts. I had to make that call in a recent softball tournament... and relied on that exact situation you reference from this year's MLB exhibition game in my explanation. But still sent someone home between games to scour the internet for the rules to back me up, and they found it and brought a copy to the park [i'll start looking again for you].

    If the game resumes, DirecTV appears to have it on RSNa #657 tonight

    I've got a partial tear in my calf muscle, in the same charity softball tournament that I tore rib cartlidge in last year, costing big chunks of both seasons. Still not as bad as a stretch we had two years ago - one teammate busted a foreman when laying out for a flyball and rolling over akwardly on it and another had his nose shattered in 6 spots from a bad infield hop at third base (only playing third because the regular 3B moved to that outfield spot while stitches in his chin healed from bad hop a few weeks earlier).
  15. TSack27
    They are in the upper deck behind home plate where the big columns that the roof panels pivot on. Anyone else think those seats should be abandoned for the sake of mounting a second display board between those columns so those that sit in the outfield can see what is shown on the centerfield scoreboard (but can't because of the angle)?

    Dave Bush to Carlos Zambrano, "and THAT'S how you block the plate!"

    There are several varieties at Point Brewing and New Glarus Brewing to get the conversation started, but I don't think they do much distributing outside of the Midwest (and not sure what other options exist for shipping... but I think it's a good thought on your part worth pursuing) EDIT: Ya, pretty much what datrain said http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    I've made a collage out of all sports ticket stubs for the home bar area, putting the more prominent ones up front, but being in the northwoods don't get to nearly as many games each year. After missing the excitement of the '82 playoffs in person, I made sure not miss it the next year... I've got 4 unused tickets to the playoff games at County Stadium in 1983 http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/frown.gif

    1) Whoever they are, I'm sure they are not as classy as the team with the most World Series titles among NL teams. 4) Does Tony Gwynn's strike shortened .394 count, otherwise it's probably George Brett's .390 (unless someone else snuck in there pre-80's) 5) Fred Lynn (I think that comes up ever year during the broadcast... gotta watch, cuz now it matters) 6) Seems like I heard this one every year, too... but drawing a blank.

    2) Was he also the last 30-game winner?

    ^ I can take those Cardinals off the list for you (with 3 straight appearances in early-mid 40's, W-L-W)
  23. TSack27
    My first and last visit to the Metrodome will be Saturday
  24. TSack27
    Sounds very classless and disrespectful by the guests of the almighty Cardinals... the nerve having the pitcher bat before he has even pitched.
