52 Pickup 69

Supposedly this punk Eovaldi throws hard. You know what we do with hard throwers in Oakland, punk? Cement galoshes, baby.

Seriously though, Eovaldi, our local anarchists want to know if you’re free later.

    Jesse Hahn appears to have abandoned the non-conforming socks and gone with the Gray-Sogard style.

      I can’t explain why I love the phrase “existing non conforming” so much

    Game 7 has disappointed so far, though I’m glad Anaheim appears to be doomed.

    Yankee 2Bman needs to learn not to plant his feet on the turn like that, or he’s gonna get hurt.

          It wasn’t Gallego’s worst decision. I still count it as a fail though.

          It was awfully shallow to try to score, even with two outs. The throw was off-line and he was still out easily.

            Seems to me we have a pretty good third-base coach within the organization…

    That was about as ugly a swing I’ve seen in over 40 years of watching baseball.

  14. mother pucker May 30,2015 8:34 pm

    Cal baseball walks off in the bottom of the 14th — now only one win away from the Super Regional (whatever that is).

    I’m assuming Eovaldi is Italian for hit me.

    • Future Ed May 30,2015 8:38 pm || Up

      spring is when he enters the game throwing strikes, summer is when he is pumping the ball 95 MPH, fall is when hits start falling, winter is when balls can do nothing but fall and runs come around to score before he is retired for the night

      I went out like I was in my 20s.

      A college roommate aske is slf or I could go with her to see a band, I said sure. Didn’t realize it was a contemporary friend’s band. a friend independent of the college roommate.

      I was cool enough to not say “what are you doing here?” when I saw him

    Anybody notice (or give a FK) that CSNCA showed JCS’ picture and captioned him as Hahn, and Glen read the promo without noticing.
