    Sweet swing.
  2. BruisedCrew
    That’s a little harsh. Those were both tough calls at full speed.
  3. BruisedCrew
    Hoskins ratio now 3:2. Just have to keep runners off first when he hits.
  4. BruisedCrew
    This is a rough challenge. Maybe too close to change.
  5. BruisedCrew
    Obviously too early to draw conclusions about anything, but being OK relative to the Mets is not a lofty goal. They could be really awful, like they were last year.
  6. BruisedCrew
    I was simply reacting to the fact that in 4 games plus one inning, Hoskins has hit into 3 DPs, two with the bases loaded and one with runners on first and third. All frustrating rally killers. I also recognize that he drove in 4 runs on Saturday and will likely not be hitting into 3 DPs for every HR.
  7. BruisedCrew
    Good challenge.
  8. BruisedCrew
    Good grief, lighten up. Several posters simultaneously make offhanded comments about Hopkins hitting into another DP, and of course you choose to jump on mine.
  9. BruisedCrew
    His HR:DP ratio is not great so far.
  10. BruisedCrew
    Hoskins really is a DP machine.
  11. BruisedCrew
    I see they just put that on TV. Hopefully this season will go better than that one.
  12. BruisedCrew
    Is this the first 4-0 since 1987?
  13. BruisedCrew
    That didn’t look like it was going to be a double play off the bat.
  14. BruisedCrew
    Defense not coming through this inning.
  15. BruisedCrew
    Probably not much different than usual. A high percentage of the fans that attend Opening Day don’t really care about the game if they manage to make it in from their tailgates.
  16. BruisedCrew
    Pirates fans are saying the same thing. 😀

    Our seats are in the first row of the Terrace level just to the third base side of home plate. We've had them since 2007. I forget exactly what I paid this year but it's about $250 per seat for the 10 games plus the "free" 11th game.

    I get free MLB TV as part of my Brewers 10 pack.

    If you think the Brewers get screwed on ball and strike calls, you should see the pitch that an umpire just called a ball in the Braves Phillies game. With the bases loaded and two outs Fried through a 2-2 fastball right down the middle to Castellanos and the ump called it a ball. That was followed by ball four and a single for three undeserved runs and Fried left the game after throwing 40 pitches.. Check out a gamecast picture of that one.
  20. BruisedCrew
    Not necessarily. He gets that strike and the following pitch sequence might be different.. He might not challenge Alonso with a fastball down the middle on 1-2 like he did on 2-1.
  21. BruisedCrew
    Probably not but some fans will think so.
  22. BruisedCrew
    Brewers castoff Tyrone Taylor batting cleanup for the Mets.
  23. BruisedCrew
    And then deal with the critics who complain that she says “he said” too often. I haven’t figured out yet exactly how she’s supposed to report on conversations, both when interpreting or summarizing off camera conversations.
  24. BruisedCrew
    Always nice to get that first one on the record.

    Hearing the “Let’s Go Mets” chants today reminds me of another of my favorite Opening Days. In 1973 the student radio station I broadcast for became an affiliate on the Mets network to add some programming and revenue that would allow it to continue broadcasting over the summer. As an affiliate all we had to do was contact the Mets and if there was availability they would leave us tickets. Opening Day wasn’t a big deal in NY in those days so a friend and I were able to get freebies. We drove the hour or so to Shea Stadium to see Hall of Famers Tom Seaver and Steve Carlton square off. Carlton had won 27 games the year before for a Phillies team that only won 57 games. The Mets rode 2 HR from Cleon Jones to beat the Phil’s 3-0 in a game that lasted an hour and 59 minutes. Good times. (Thanks to Baseball Reference for refreshing my memory on some of the details.)
