"Whose wife was married to a current Tribe broadcaster" was the question.

LOL!

Actually it was the oft forgotten fact that Dennis Eckersley followed up his 1977 no hitter by carrying a no hitter into the 6th inning of his next start......in Seattle.

Tied up!

suicide squeeze fails, but announcers think he got back to 3rd safely.

My first roommate in law school in Miami went to Podiatry school for a while before enrolling in the Miami law program. His brother was an ER doc at Jackson Memorial. The brother always gave my room mate a hard time claiming that real doctors would have never gone the Podiatry route.

To answer your question, it seems she was not looking at the camera picture.....or maybe she was?

These Seattle fans sound like they think they are watching the 7th game of the World Series tonight.

Elaine: We started to talk, and I told him that I jog, and then he put his

hand on my heart.

Jerry: On your heart?

Elaine: Jerry, the man is a doctor.

Jerry: Doctor? He’s a podiatrist.

Elaine: It’s the same thing.

Jerry: Anyone can get into podiatry school. *George* got into podiatry

school.

Elaine: Really?

Doctor (name?): No of course not. People ask me medical questions all the

time.

Elaine: Well the question isn’t even for me it’s for a friend.

Doctor: Elaine, I’m used to it. I’m a doctor.

Elaine: Well… podiatrist.

Doctor: Huh?

Elaine: No no, I’m just saying you didn’t really go to medical school, you

went to podiatry school. Which I’m sure is very grueling in it’s own way.

Doctor: I went to podiatry school because I like feet. I chose to work with

feet.

Elaine: I like feet too. I’m just saying…

Doctor: Saying what?

Jaso juices one to center, and it hops the fence. Lillibridge almost made a tough catch.
2-1 now. Acta coming out.
Only 72 pitches for Fausto.

I remember that episode, J.R.


These Seattle announcers are way too fired up about this game. Screaming shrilly on any Seattle hit or defensive play.

Don't they know that we are 5-20 since signing Lillibridge?

Montero hits a 3-run homer.
Familiar story

It's looking like we are about to lock up another series loss.

We've won two series since June.

Jerry: Hey, did you talk to the doctor?

Elaine: No.

Jerry: All right, the next time you see him show him this. (He presents the

bottle of fungicide.)

Elaine: You *took* her medicine.

Jerry: Not on purpose. I was hoping there would be a name on the tube. When

are you seeing him again?

Elaine: I don’t know. We got into this whole thing about how podiatrists

aren’t real doctors.

Jerry: How could you say that?

Elaine: It’s your fault. You just got me thinking.

Jerry: I was merely speaking extemporaneously.

Elaine: I’ve got nothing against the foot. I’m pro-foot.

Jerry: Me too.

Elaine: Do you think I should call him and apologize?

Jerry: Yes. He’s a doctor.

Elaine starts to leave.

Jerry: Wait a second.

Jerry puts the bottle of fungicide in Elaine’s purse.

5-1, end of 7. Does anyone think we will come back?

Inning started off with an error. That's never a good sign. We begin our comeback now.

Well, the error is followed by a walk...
