We were going to go,
but it looks like rain, and the idea of a million, tightly-packed umbrella-wielding New Yorkers changed our minds. (My wife and I can’t seem to get used to the terrible umbrella etiquette around here.) Maybe next year.
3-run homer.
Good for Treanor and the Marlins, not for the Rockies.

Well, happy 4th anyway!
Just finishing up some ribs, corn on the cob, baked beans, and watermelon. What do I find on the TV? A 3-run homer, putting our Rox down five. And Francis isn’t even pitching. Seeeeesh. Oh well. If G-Rey can settle down, we can work our way back into this thing.
Put me out of my misery. Please!

Well this is getting ugly...
very glad that I attended yesterday’s fireworks game instead of today’s. I do feel bad for Silverblood, Squeaky, and the others who are at this one. Those of us watching it don’t have it easy either. 11-4. I know we really have to use the bullpen in this game, but I still feel it was too long for Bowers to be in there.

Taking odds
Which position player are we going to see throw the ninth for the Rockies tonight? (Seriously, this feels like the kind of night – game out of reach, bullpen already taxed – where we’d see such a thing).
My money’s on Koshansky.
Staying on the sunny side of Blake Street since 1993.
Wouldn't surprise me
if it was Koshansky. Did well on the mound for the Cavaliers also.
"Keep your head down, and inch toward daylight." - Blade of Tyshalle
Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
If nothing else...
Wanting to find out the answer will give me a reason to check back on this game in the ninth inning.
Staying on the sunny side of Blake Street since 1993.
True...
This is with the assumption that one pitcher pitches a clean inning…maybe Koshansky will come in and surprise us with one.

Well.
There’s one back. Maybe it’s because I don’t have much else to do tonight, but I for one haven’t given up on this game yet.
We got one back,
but the Marlins will score five more.

I shall try again
I was trying to say that Spilly’s most recent homer looked identical to Atty’s in the play-in game 10-1-07. Hit a seat and bounced back onto the field. At least this umping crew got the call right.
/crossing fingers
Put me out of my misery. Please!
Brad, time to do something.

Hawpe's gotta stop
with those weird plays in the outfield.
"Keep your head down, and inch toward daylight." - Blade of Tyshalle
Purple Row - Covering all your Rockies needs!
I was thinking the same thing.....
Hawpe looks mighty awkward coming in on balls sometimes.
Not an IBB with nobody out!
Just give them more potential runs.
This is why the IBB is dumb.....
Hurdle strategy fails again.
Yeah, two more runs for the Marlins.
Cut it out.

I hate IBB's
Especially with NO outs! A recipe for disaster. A reliever it seems, can pitch a maximum of an inning before the ball starts getting tagged in this game, but I don’t think Hurdle got the memo.

Twilight Zone
time machine took us back 12 years.
AHAHAHA!
This is the funniest game I’ve seen in quite a while. I don’t even really care that out pitching has been atrocious, because clearly it’s been more about the hitting for both teams than about the bad pitching.
Look at who we used
Reynolds, Bowers, Vizcaino, Grilli, Corpas… what were you expecting, great pitching from those five?
Well
Gilli has been mostly good, and Corpas has been good in his first inning of late. And even with the others, 17 runs is a little more than anyone could expect. But really, like I said, in this game it doesn’t seem to matter what pitcher either team throws out there. It’s a good thing we have the last at bat.
Atty!!!!
Still NOBODY out!!!! Here come the Rockies…we’re gonna get real loud!!!!

What a pleasant surprise
Left to go watch a fireworks show & it was 13-4.
Came back & thought, “I’ll just check XM. Maybe the Rockies rallied.”
Yes indeed.
2 shutout innings from Taylor & we’ve got this one. Willy T will lead off and score, I predict.
There is a bright side to the '08 season.
Barry Bonds & Roger Clemens are out of baseball.
Your plan's perfect except for one minor detail...
That would be Clint Hurdle leaving Corpas in for a second inning again.
I can't understand that
Would he do the same if the score were 1-0?
Maybe he can’t subtract very well & doesn’t realize we’re trying to keep the game within 1.

Can't say that
What if Reynolds had only given up 4 in the first? With this many runs scored tonight, the IBB (which is/was baffling) isn’t the culprit.
Put me out of my misery. Please!
I do wish however...
that Hawpe could have gotten on base one or two times, because that really might have made the difference.

Nice to have you with us tonight
I know you usually stay away from game threads. I, for one, appreciate your insights and knowledge and wish you’d join in more frequently.
Put me out of my misery. Please!
Thanks
I really do appreciate that. Mostly I’m just not around a computer for the game threads, but I’ve got my reasons for not actively participating stemming from a few I was a part of last year. I certainly appreciate the sentiment though – and hey, a few more Ws like this one and I’ll be around every night!

Awesome game
I was at this July 4th game back in 1995 (my dad scored us six free seats about 10 rows behind 3rd base). That night, the fireworks after the game were the highlight for me. Today, sure, I’m not there, but definitely the opposite.
Ditto Franchise26....
This is why I love baseball. I never feel like any sport ever compares to this game.

Back around 1981...
The Denver Bears scored nine runs in the bottom of the ninth to beat Iowa something like 15-14 in a July 4 fireworks game before 50,000 at Mile High. Jim Cox hit a 3-run homer to win it. That was an all-timer until tonight.
Hopefully
this gets added as one of the MLB Games of the Year in iTunes. I am so downloading this puppy.
If anyone still wants to discuss
this, I have a post-game thread up. Head on over there.
