OOT Scoreboard - 8/23/05

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 08:06 PM

Former Oakland player Carlos Pena homers off of his former team to give the Tigers a 1-0 lead in the 4th inning.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 08:58 PM

Detroit has a 4-1 lead over Oakland. In Pittsburgh, a 3-RBI hit by Ty Wigginton helped the Pirates build a 7-0 lead over St. Louis. As I type, our old friend is pitching to the Cardinals in the 6th with the bases loaded. OE - Baby Boomer gets out of the jam, and it's still 7-0 Pittsburgh.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 09:08 PM

St. Louis now has Ray King pitching. Dear lord - that man is fatter than Mickey Lolich!

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 09:10 PM

Pena has homered twice tonight, and has all four RBIs against his former team.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 09:19 PM

The Cubs have a 4-0 lead over Atlanta in the 4th. Boston is leading KC by the same score in the same inning.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 09:25 PM

4-1 holds up as the final in Detroit.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 09:30 PM

Pittsburgh leads St. Louis 8-0. Chicago leads Atlanta by the same score. Neither of these are laughers, btw. Cincinnati leads Washington 6-2 in the 9th. Toronto has a tenuous 3-2 lead over the MFYs in the 8th.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 09:41 PM

Fuck - the MFYs have tied it in the 8th :(

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 09:47 PM

It's a final in Washington - the Nats lose to Cincy 6-2.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 09:56 PM

Toronto regains the run in the top of the 9th. On to the bottom of the 9th in the Bronx.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 10:02 PM

And the MFYs tie it in the 9th.

MiniKnight Aug 23 2005 10:06 PM

oops - wrong thread

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 10:14 PM

Fuck - the MFYs score two in the 9th to win :(

Johnny Dickshot Aug 23 2005 10:26 PM

And now, the important scores: Cincy 6, Washington 2, final Milwaukee 7, Florida 1, 7th Cubs 8, Braves 1, 8th Philly 0, Frisco 0, 1st

In Minnesota, Freddie Garcia of the ChiSox takes a no-hitter into the 8th until Jacque Jones leads off with a solo HR. It's Minny's only hit of the game but it's enough for the 1-0 vicotry. Johan Santana combined w/Joe Nathan for a 3-hit shutout.

smg58 Aug 23 2005 10:33 PM

I love pitchers' duels like that. Don't forget San Diego 1, Houston 0 in the third. This could be a really good night for the Mets.

Milwaukee's lead is now 11-1 over Florida. The Cubs lead Atlanta 10-1 in the 9th.

Frayed Knot Aug 23 2005 10:54 PM

The time-of-game, btw, in Minnesota was 2:08 That's a couple of bad starts for Thomson of Atlanta since his return from the DL. Andruw still managed his 40th!! HR. Burnitz hit a grannie. It was Beckett that took it on the chin for Florida. That's Clemens vs Peavy in SD Oakland lost (that's like 6 of 7 for them now) but Cleveland won and stays in a virtual tie w/Yanx in WC race. Boston's in charge vs KC.

Johnny Dickshot Aug 23 2005 11:04 PM

Phils unloading on Brett Tomko, up 5-1.

metirish Aug 23 2005 11:05 PM

Gary and Howie can't help but take jabs at the MFY's, giving the OoTSC and talking about Escolona's game winner Howie said.. ] Escolona is a yankee hero,they'll be wiring him up any minute for a half hour interview you could hear Gary laughing in the background.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 23 2005 11:06 PM

KC scores two in the 9th, but Boston hangs on to win 5-2.

Johnny Dickshot Aug 24 2005 12:05 AM

Padres win!!!! 2-0 over Jackass Clemens. Phils still leading SF, 5-2 in the 7th, Still, looks to be a good night for the Mets.

I love how Scarlet drops an F-bomb right after her son posts. Classic. If I didn't hate Roger Clemens with the passion of a thousand fires, I'd feel bad for the guy that he has an ERA of 1.58 but only eleven wins. But since I'm not much of a Clemens fan, I kinda enjoy that.

After Saturday's game, he saw every bad word he's ever going to see in his life. It's cooby's fault - she said that I shouldn't shield him from this stuff. Seriously, I figure it's not a bad thing if he sees this place as the context where people swear. If the bullpen meltdown that night isn't a reason to swear, then no reason exists. And the kid has a good sense of context (moreso than his older siblings do). FWIW, he was reading the stream of curse words and laughing over the different combinations.

seawolf17 Aug 24 2005 09:30 AM

As long as swear words are used properly, then it's educational!

Elster88 Aug 24 2005 09:31 AM

Get him a copy of Chris Rock's explanation of the word fuck.

Yancy Street Gang Aug 24 2005 10:02 AM

Did he see Vic's explanation of what he'd do if he grabbed a foul ball?

MFS62 Aug 24 2005 10:06 AM

Mom, we consider it a highly technical term. Anyone who works with computers knows this. You may have a future Bill Gates on your hands. (If he doesn't become a Doctor or Lawyer, that is) Later

How about Tommy Lasorda's rant about Dave Kingman? Paul Olden: Can you give us just a few basic comments about your feelings on the game? Lasorda: Well, naturally I feel bad about losing a ball game like that, there's no way you should lose that ball game. An', it, uh, just doesn't make sense. Olden: What's your opinion of Kingman's performance? Lasorda: What's my opinion of Kingman's performance!? What the BLEEP do you think is my opinion of it? I think it was BLEEPING BLEEP. Put that in, I don't BLEEP. Opinion of his performance!!? BLEEP, he beat us with three BLEEPING home runs! What the BLEEP do you mean, "What is my opinion of his performance?" How could you ask me a question like that, "What is my opinion of his performance?" BLEEP, he hit three home runs! BLEEP. I'm BLEEPING pissed off to lose that BLEEPING game. And you ask me my opinion of his performance! BLEEP. That's a tough question to ask me, isn't it? "What is my opinion of his performance?" Olden: Yes, it is. I asked it, and you gave me an answer... Lasorda: Well, I didn't give you a good answer because I'm mad, but I mean... Olden: Well, is wasn't a good question... Lasorda: That's a tough question to ask me right now, "What is my opinion of his performance." I mean, you want me to tell you what my opinion of his performance is... Olden: You just did... Lasorda: That's right. BLEEP. Guy hits three home runs against us. BLEEP.

For hilariously inappropriate profanity laced managerial tirades, it's impossible to beat the Earl of Baltimore. Listen to this, if you can: [url]http://www.campchaos.com/show.php?iID=800[/url]

Weaver was a true master. Kind of like the father in A Christmas Story.

seawolf17 Aug 24 2005 11:00 AM

I loved reading Ron Luciano's books when I was a kid; he had so many great Earl Weaver stories.
