God I hate MLB.TV

Makes PERFECT sense that the game is blacked out. Why WOULDN’T it be. I can just switch over to FOX and—OH, WAIT, GIANTS VS BREWERS!

Jesus…

I don't mind getting Brewers-Giants

I’m right by Milwaukee after all.

I just wish MLB weren’t so ambivalent towards their customer base. If we can’t watch the game on TV, we should be allowed to watch it on MLB.tv.

Luckily, I just discovered my Slingbox was up and running. =D

First two on.

Not good.

One fielding chance for Wake.

Got the out, if not impressively.

I meant "it" wouldn't be a baseball game..

Never mind that we're in the lead for the wild card and are probably the 3rd best team in baseball.

Much nicer inning.

yep...

as I said Drew will strike out as well..

When...is the last time we hit a 3-run homer?

Not the only way of scoring.

Against the ChiSox, actually.

During Buchholz’ crap outing. Lowell hit it.

Let's see if Ells' bat can make up for his poor defense in the first

He cost Wake a run.

I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

no, I was kinda having a problem

I had another tab open and SBN sites wouldn’t come up. It said something about a server error.

Thank God Wake has settled down.

I was having visions of a 3-man rotation. >_>

When did the networks start talking about such things?

kind of odd no-no’s and perfecto’s being discussed.

Victimized. But still here.

by gizmosandy on Sep 5, 2009 5:29 PM EDT up reply actions

They try to avoid discussing them for the sake of avoiding the hate mail when it falls through.

Wake has been pretty good today – 6IP, 6 hits, 3 walks, 4 K’s. He’s saved us from having to burn more of the pen, and we should be closer right now, if not for some poor defense and a great pitching performance from the other team.
