No audio or video for this game. Updates are pretty much only on mlbgameday, or from DOB.

Its 0-0 in the top of the 3rd

McCann walked, G. Anderson got a hit, but Kotchman hit into a double play after a Francouer strikeout

Actually, DOB points out that G. Anderson was apparently sleeping on base, and Kotchman popped up and it turned into a DP.

yeah I just realized that. I’ve been holding off on renewing my gameday audio account because they just released the MLB At Bat 2009 app for the iPhone/iPod touch, so I bought that instead, but only to find out they aren’t going to have the gameday audio until April 6th. bummer.

Is that app any good?

oh yeah, i’m supposed to ask you where you are from that you made that remark about Morgan County the other day.

I live in Macon now, but I used to live in Jones County, which is only 15 minutes from Macon.

Definitely.

The lite version was awesome, and so far this seems to be an amazing app. I mean it gives you the gameday audio for 5 bucks cheaper, so that right off the bat is worth the money.

The updates are a little behind, and it doesn’t show much for pre-season stuff, but for real games it shows EVERYTHING. Box score, summary, video highlights, and even the pitch-by-pitch coverage that mlb.com has. So far, I’m pretty impressed, it’s probably the best app out, in my opinion. It even does standings and little extra mlb videos too.

Top 3rd

Lin singles, but KK retires Baldelli, Pedroia (probably on high inside fastball), and Bay in order.

I have to look back through my notes, but when I was at the Japan vs US game in LA, I think he had thrown 68 pitches, 30 for strikes in 3 2/3 innings. Shitty thing is that he actually won the game. What the Fuck!?!?

by mvandonsel on Mar 30, 2009 5:57 PM EDT up reply actions  

so does that mean

that the only 4 balls he has thrown were all to one batter???

by 10-4 on Mar 30, 2009 2:23 PM EDT reply actions  

I wonder if Bobby Cox will experiment with a line up with Frenchy/Chipper in the Clean Up Spot. maybe then put G. Anderson in the #2 spot if Frenchy is hitting cleanup

by drumzalicious on Mar 30, 2009 2:25 PM EDT reply actions  

I dont think it would be that bad its only spring training lol. i wouldnt do it in the regular season unless frenchy was tearing it up

DOB Blog someone was asking something about if he is resting or if something was wrong after he hit a ground out

by drumzalicious on Mar 30, 2009 2:49 PM EDT up reply actions  

You’re basing this on a question asked by a blogger? I would hardly classify that as reading it somewhere.

Schafer's Line

Anyone got any guesses on what Schafers line will be first time up in the Majors?

by drumzalicious on Mar 30, 2009 2:57 PM EDT reply actions  

He’ll hit for the cycle

by acie4mvp on Mar 30, 2009 8:41 PM EDT up reply actions  

that would be sick but i doubt it in his first year. i do however like having his power at the top of the lineup. nothing sets the tone of the game like the lead off man hitting a home run one one of the first few pitches.

by drumzalicious on Mar 31, 2009 12:41 AM EDT up reply actions  

Top 7th

Pedroia doubles in a run off Acosta, who had allowed 2 hits. O’Flaherty comes in a gets the second and third out.

tie?

How many innings will they do before they declare a tie in ST? Is it 10?

its usually the team’s decision. i don’ t think there’s any rule. You don’t see many go too far into extra innings.

by 10-4 on Mar 30, 2009 4:03 PM EDT up reply actions  

Usually a mutual decision by both managers when both have no more pitchers they want to evaluate.

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
