I hope Tulo can get a couple of hits today as well. It was nice to see him hit a couple of balls really hard last night for extra base hits.

2 quick thoughts:

1) Madbum is a terrible nickname. Nicknames in general suck now because all we have are the hockey nickname ( -y, -er, -sy names), initial/# combos (cb4, cp1, etc) and these weird portmanteau names that are just parts of the first/last names. Like, hey, we should hope for a great game today out of MarStro and maybe JD20 and Tulsy's bats wake up and lead TBJs to a big win, especially if there are added contributions from JuSmo and KevPil and big MS21 over in left. Argh.

2) Kevin Barker is awful. It's not just the ridiculous drawly accent. He says so much without ever saying anything. Jamie asks him about Stroman's sinker and why lefties might've been hitting it, and he launches into a broad talk about throwing a bunch of pitches and how the cutter helps. Jamie asks him about Tulo's mechanical changes and a "flat bat" and he responds with "you've got A, and B, and C, and D and you're trying to go A to D, and a flat bat...." or some nonsense.

3 games behind both Oroiles and the Sox, need to keep up with the pace

Baumgarner is actually complaining about the strike zone? The guy was gifted a free out, and that's probably the only reason the game is tied at the moment.

Seriously? Bumgarner needs to talk to the ump after those 2 gift calls against EE? "Is that as far as you'll go?", "nah, I'll go at least another 3 or 4 inches both inside and outside, only for you though, not for Stroman"
