You think Perez is bad, the Mariners blew a 7 run lead tonight. How do you think they feel?

I tell ya, no lead is safe with this Tribe team. They kick ass.

All fairness to Perez, he got a DP ball that coulda made it 3 up 3 down. Just a bad break on that hop.

I was prepping to post that this comeback win from an 8-1 deficit cancelled out the putrid Opening Day loss.

However with the Chris Perez "load them up and sweat" 9th, I'm not so inclined. Bad hop and all, he still surrendered a walk and a real hit.


We are 5-4 though, and now in 2nd place.

If the regular season ended tonight, we'd be in the wild card one game playoff.

I fell asleep right after we took the 9-8 lead.

Didnt miss a thing!

and again, after a foul tip.

2-2 to Choo.


Pestano ready in the pen for the 8th.

There is a Beatles song in there somewhere.

I heard the end of the game in bed... ..............WE WIN!!!

Lowe pitching BP. 2 solo homers, including one by Ichiro.

Roof is open tonight

We're down 4-1 in the top of the 8th as I drive in late.

We have 6 outs to get three runs.

Hagadone appears again and still has an ERA of 0.00


Bartolo Colon threw 31 straight strikes for Oakland in Anaheim tonight. Ray Fosse had a field day and a lot of fun during the streak, declaring it to be the most consecutive strikes he had seen in all his years of baseball.

Choo gets to first for the 3rd time tonight via walk.

The guy on deck would be the tying run.

We'll need three in the 9th to keep this game going for us.

These Mariners announcers now make me understand whey they serve so much coffee in Seattle. Listening to them, it's needed to stay awake.

Correction, I was bouncing in and out while surfing and viewing TV with my wife.

Turns out that Bartolo Colon threw 38 consecutive strikes, still hitting the gun at 92mph at the age of 40.

We need a miracle as we are down to our last out, with no runners on, down by three.


And a first pitch swing results in a fly out and everyone will get a good night's sleep in Seattle.

I got home in time to watch the MLB network cut into that Oakland game. They showed that sequence in about one minute. That was quite an amazing display of pounding the strike zone. They were checking the record books to see if there was such a stat available when I went to bed.
