The temp at gametime was in the 30's, guys were bundled up like they were in the artic, it was strange to see. Tonights game was grrrrreat. 3-1 was the Final score. Kenny Rogers the 41+ year old pitcher was en fuego. He threw 99 pitches in 8 innings, not giving up a run. He now has 23 consecutive post season innings without a run. Can you say awesome?
I can. The man is freaking instense. 46,000 fans screaming his name. Well, make that 46,001. I was driving the cats mad with my yelling. Todd Jones gave up a run in the 9th inning..fucker. Ol Sparky Anderson was there to root on his Tigers. The St. Lou catcher, Yadier Molina, took a baseball to the nads, poor dude..he was hunched over for a few minutes.
Kenny was told to go wash his hands early in the game by the Ump. No one is saying what, if anything he had on his fingers. The Cards could of got him tossed if they had bitched about it. BBT is saying it was pine tar. Rogers said in the post game interview it was "dirt"...oookay.
He actually pitched better AFTER he washed his hands. So, I don't care at this point.
The series moves to St. Lou for three games starting Tuesday.
On the football front, the Chargers lost to a rotten team today. KC beat em and it's being reported by ESPN, that Shawn Merriman of the Chargers will be cooling his heels for 4 games for steroid use. Damn, they just dont get it. Roids....
Have a good monday y'all.
Is MLB expansion the cure to baseball’s lack of offense?

I forgot to extend my TiVo recording options to more than 3 hrs for the game so I only caught the last two innings. Great game. Yesterdays game was ruined for me. I tiVoed it while at work. On the way home, NPR News ruined the score over the radio. Dammit.
Aw, SR..I forgot you work unconventional hours dude. :(
Good call Seamus, they weren't sure..they usually haul ass though..they never know when a shoe will come flying at them for doing something illegal within the house rules.
I just re-read my post..for the love of god..I really can spell better than that.
Mind Meld! I just posted the same thing about Rogers pitching better *after* he washed his hands. And Molina? There's one for the highlight reel... I'm sorry but nut shots always crack me up! Go Tigers!
So...ya think it was mud? Does it matter? I'm not sure...does it?
I saw that MJ..great minds ya know.. :)
Chicklet..It doesn't matter they all do it. Even LaRussa said as long as the ball doesn't do funny things..who gives a shit?
The press..
Go Tigers! :-) I'm all set for tonight's game.
Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers
Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers
Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers
Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers
Tigers Tigers Tigers Tigers
Don't get upset - - - KC is a tough place for a division opponent to go into, regardless of the records, they'll score points at home.
The division is fraught with landmines Al..it makes a grown woman tear up.
