Overflow: 04/?? Vs. Padres

PrintSince I don't even know what day it is, and Russ went to bed... and we've gotten close to 1,000 comments in the existing thread, I figured I should do this instead. And since it needs to be 75 words long, I'll babble so we can move here, since breaking SB Nation would not be preferable. I expect that we'd get peeved about that, since we would then have nowhere to do said babbling.
Post here, all.

You should have waited til the 18th
New thread could be bad juju O_O

Err....
I assume he doesn’t also want the game to go on for another 17 innings….

Nix
the fact that Nix is out of options doesn’t seem like such a big deal right now, does it? Seriously, outright him to AAA and let some other team grab him.
I’d rather see Quintinilla up here.
As bad as Nix is
at bat…....He’s that good with the glove

Nix makes up for his EPIC FAIL.
A little bit.

Here's To
Getting out of the 17th without giving up the game winning HR to 0 – 7 Brian Giles, and then ending the game in the 18th.

Nix, again
his glove is what makes his lack of hitting so damn frustrating. He’s a terrific fielder.
Can we construct the Six Million Dollar Second Baseman

Hmmmm....
Good, relaxing night tonight. No quiz tomorrow in Arabic, no work tomorrow, no Dbacks game to worry about today, watched Goodfellas, and now watching the Rockies wear the Padres down to nubs.
Yeah, it’s fair to say that I’ve had worse nights.
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
You do realize
that most of the Padres’ bullpen is sleeping soundly right now, right?
They can sleep...
...for the next 18 hours, for all I care. All that matters is that they threw today, some of them for 2 innings.
By the way, I’m extremely disappointed and embarrassed for you guys because you didn’t score on Trevor Hoffman.

Unfortunate
I’ve got to plate some bacterial colonies, run some PCR analysis, and listen for an hour about Immunologic Costimulation. I’m pretty sure they make half of this stuff up.
I have to watch the Rockies attempt to play the Astros too. That ought to be fun.

Hmm
I’m pretty sure I’m excited by this development.
Don't be yet
We squelched a guy on second with no outs last inning, and still have to get through 3 more outs on the Padres end regardless.

I’m too tired to be sure

needs a game winning RBI hit. So let it be written, so let it be done.

Yeah!!
He advanced the runner to 3rd!!

Whatever happens, longer is better for my team. :-D
In the end, I hope the Rox end up on top, of course.

We gotta make
the 19th first. But I’m staying for the whole thing.

This is an absolute
team-wide party of fail on the part of the offense. And Manny. This could have been over a long time ago if you’d just pitched like you did in the 15th in the 14th.
Just make it stop.

So Timmy, you like Pirate movies?

Speier will be pitching at least 3 innings...
Can a pitcher get a win and a save?
I remember Justin Verlander once recorded a save for pitching the last 3 innings of a game.
There's only one Rocktober!!
Last year,
during the 30-3 blowout game between the O’s and the Rangers, one of the Rangers’ pitchers pitched three innings—and was awarded a save.
With a 27 run lead.
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
I’m in College Park, so my roommate who’s out here studying for his engineering exam and glancing over at my computer just punched himself in the trachea when you brought that up.

College Park, MD?
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
Speier
Is he losing it this inning, or am I losing it?
That makes sense...
Because otherwise a complete game pitcher would get a win and a save.
There's only one Rocktober!!
You know what I could go for right now?
A Six Dollar Burger from Carl’s, Jr. Those things are awesome.

I've been in this game a hundred years, but I see new ways to lose I never knew existed before. - Casey Stengel
Since we only score at most
2 runs for 2 games after a blowout, can this qualify as both of them?

to a loss tomorrow? To the Astros?

I don't think we can pitch a position player..
We don’t have another bench player to play in the field. Unless we go to overtime Hockey rules and pull the Centerfielder.
There's only one Rocktober!!
Kip Wells...
First base.
Todd Helton...
Pitcher? I want to see Tulo pitch. Move Barmes to short, Holliday to third and put Wells in left.
Every day is a Holliday!
Todd was a star pitcher at Tennessee.
I think he’d have to be the first.
Agreed.
If Helton pitches, straight switch—Wells to 1B.
If Tulo—Helton to LF, Holliday to 3B, Barmes to SS.
by Tyler Boschert on Apr 18, 2008 1:42 AM MDT up reply actions
I think Tulo would throw pretty hard, though.
Look at his throws from short to first.
Every day is a Holliday!
Yeah...
but there’s a difference between throwing hard and pitching. As much as I’d love to see Tulo up there, Helton’s pitched at high levels.
Micah Owings did a lot of pinch hitting last year?
But then…. he’s also Micah Owings.
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."

you can still switch Wells into the replacement fielder’s spot.

Such pessimism!
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
I would like to see Hawpe pitch...
Then put Barmes in rightfield and let Tulo cover all of the left side of the diamond. It would be just like having Atkins over there.
There's only one Rocktober!!
You know who else
has a signature that’s awfully insightful? Behrens
Insert clever and witty remark slash pun here!
We're in Iannetta's number right here
and will hit Barmes’ last-year number, followed by Pods’, followed by Speier’s, followed by Stewart’s, followed by Smith’s, followed by Francis’s, followed by Atkins….
Just make it stop.
Well....
getting Glendon Rusch to ground out is good, anyway

Kip Wells has sent this game to the 21st inning.
I’m not sure whether that means he has FAILed or not.
Ugly swing by Iguchi
And Wells gets through another three batters. The world is coming to an end.
"Corpas ready, first pitch, checkswing roller...Tulowitzki has it, throws to first...BALLGAME! WORLD SERIES TIME IN COLORADO!"
Groundout, groundout, strikeout!
Kip Wells is a regular Brandon Webb out there tonight, isn’t he?

I am a Dbacks fan, after all.
But that’s a great compliment.
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
hahaah
it’s cool. I was just kidding. I wouldn’t mind having a Brandon Webb on the Rockies.
by A.J. Haefele on Apr 18, 2008 1:48 AM MDT up reply actions
He wouldn't be as effective.
Webby’s signature sinker always breaks a lot less at Coors due to the thin air, which is part of the reason you guys are usually so good against him. Although now that he’s got that nasty changeup, he’s less reliant on the sinker.
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
Hits, runs!
Let’s get something going against Neck this inning.
NOOOO
they just changed the scoreboard. at Petco…it goes up the 30th inning (21st-30th)
What am going to do with all these "Jeff Baker for 2nd" bumper stickers?
Kip Wells bats after Holliday?
what kind of pitches do you think Matty is gonna see?
There's only one Rocktober!!
Fastball, low and in
on the first pitch. Which of course Holliday hits 500 feet. So essentially, he grounds out to the pitcher.

You know what? I'll be less tired if I stay up all night.
So I’d almost rather they played 28 and broke the MLB record.
The Padres
are 1-1 all time in 21-inning game.

123 outs have been made, and I’m pretty sure 34 of them have been Brad Hawpe.

He is firmly on the Suck List
All right, if this one isn’t over by 5 AM, I’m gonna have to hit the hay.
Just make it stop.
But
what if Helton is pitching? Will you still leave?
"I was tied to a chair and he had a baseball bat. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."

Gotta hit the dry side,

I REALLY want to see the beard pitch.
I can't wait for
Yorvit’s quadricep muscles to literally explode if San Diego doesn’t win in this half-inning.

What's the betting
he starts anyway? Or is even Hurdle not that sadistic?
Like I said, I hope that Atkins, Iannetta, Spilly, Baker, Pods, Bucky, Fuentes, and Manny are all sacked out.
Just make it stop.
Could they
get him like a little milkmaid’s stool or something?

SportsCenter
just led off with the Rockies/Padres game. They showed the fans flapping their arms, as was mentioned in of these game threads. I was highly amused.
They also showed a brief interview with Tulo:
Question: “Did you think the game was ever going to end.”
Tulo: “No.”
I was quite entertained by the entire segment.
Wow
I asked you guys to abuse the Padres bullpen, and you did. I mean, I knew the Padres were doomed when their fans started doing the wave, but, seriously, above and beyond the call of duty. Nicely done.
