Indeed, nice missing Sandy in this series. MM (Michael McGreevy) vs MM (Max Meyer). Win this one and we move to 14-8 on the season. Let that sink in…..14-8. Since Jimmy The Greek is no longer with us, I seriously doubt anyone saw this coming. Let’s hope they continue to surprise. To do so, changes must continue to be made. For starters, I want Gassy (Luis Enrique Gastelum) brought up here pronto for middle relief duties.
I’m calling this one 5-3 Birds with JJ finding the cheap seats with bat in hand.
And what’s for din-din one may inquire? I’ll be heading over to Olive Garden in a couple hours, where I’ll order the eggplant with extra cheese and sauce, 2 Italian sausages, salad (minus the croutons) and enough breadsticks to choke a horse. Then on my way home I’ll swing on through Popeye’s drive thru lane to snag 3 apple cinnamon pies for a tasty dessert.
Din din on a warm evening here in the south of France was sausages and sauerkraut with boiled potatoes slathered in butter, in honor of our Alsatian friends, followed by a slice of chocolate cake.
I’ll try to stay awake long enough to catch the first inning or two before stumbling off to jamais jamais pays.Sausage and kraut sounds good CIF. I had caramelized peppers and shaved steak in a whole wheat wrap with hot pepper cheese and sour cream. 2 of them. Washed it down with diet Arnie Palmer half and half lemonade and tea. Go Cards. I think those were sweepers Walker chased.
Talk about a Din-din double play. Cardinal in France and KeepComingBack weigh in with a couple din-dins that cannot be surpassed. Well done gentlemen!
I think it’s obvious that Michael McGreevy is here to stay……and there’s Walker with a 1 out sizzling single to center to keep his quest for 57 still alive. Now Walker swipes 2nd. Gorman needs to come through here……Walker to 3rd on a WP…..Gorman walks. Masyn with a healthy fly to left-center that will bring Walker home with ease….1-0 Birds. Urias is gifted a base hit grounder down the 3rd baseline by both the 3rd baseman’s miscue and some shoddy judgement compliments of the official scorer. Saggese whiffs
Wonder who has a better arm…..Masyn or Brett Favre in his prime? Great play by Masyn on that slow grounder.
Ground rule double by Edward’s knots this game up at a run apiece. Boy Sagesse was playing wayyy in on Edwards……almost as if BicycleMike’s Ron Hrbel was at the plate.
I actually come from a family of Packers fans although I was a Redskins fan for whatever reason until Dan Snyder bought the team.
Favre threw a lot of touchdowns and a lot of interceptions. He was always going to go for it despite the odds. That made him fun. And somewhat infuriating.
I had high hopes for Victor coming into this season, but I’m not seeing much, if any, improvement over last year. Maybe he’ll never hit. I think they will give him to the all-star break to see if there’s a light at the end of the tunnel in regards to his offensive abilities.
Top of 5……Herrera with a 2 out base hit, but then Burly taps out to the pit her Meyer.
Cards 1
Marlins 1There’s little hope for Victor right now but there’s no other real option. Church is similar. You lose a touch of speed in a trade for an ever so slightly better bat.
Baez could be there by August if everything goes right. He’s not really a CFer but he can play it well enough to add more total value if he can run a WRC+ north of 100.
Augustino Ramirez ramrods a McGreevy offering just over the left-center wall to propel the Marlins into a 2-1 lead.
Bark in the Park Night in Miami tonight. Look for Rat and Whitey HerDog……you never know, Rat may have sprung for a couple 1st class airline tickets for the event.
There are no direct flights from Southwest Indiana to Miami. Maybe that’ll change tomorrow. But not today.
I forgot to check that airline. Foolish me. They probably allow Cardinal-named dogs to fly first class as well.
Top of 6
Walker walked
Gorman flies out to short left
Meyer gets yanked after 91 pitches…..and 8 K’s. Very nicely pitched game……glad he’s out of there.
Faucher on for Miami
Winn whacks one that glances off the pitchers glove and out into center field for a hit……Walker to 3rd.
Now a PB brings Walker in and Winn all the way around to 3rd…..tied at 2-2.
Saggese grounds out to retire the side.
