He was escorted out of the park and banned for life after he reached over and caught another one last night in the derby...

Even if you do that, Francona doesn't have a positional sub. Does he put Kazmir out in left or something?

Poor guy that may be all he can do!!! I'm sure he'll be about 10mph off what he normally is



Are their even positional players left to pitch???


EDIT: I'm slower to the draw then yall

You know some of those guys out there pitched in high school and college. Josh Hamilton could throw 95 in high school, but he's out already.

If you were a GM, would you rather have Kazmir pitching full speed or out in right field with the possibility of one long toss?

I think Bud would call it before that would happen...baseball if more paranoid than any other sport about making a mockery of the game

Too bad Ichiro isn't still in, I'm sure he could throw some serious heat too.

I don't know. Bud got so much flack for calling it last time I don't think he want to pull the trigger again.

More than that, I figure they'd be too worried about a shortstop throwing out his arm pitching.

I'm calling it now...Bud will not allow this game to go past 17


Kaz has maybe 2 innings in him....Lidge is still left and could go 2 innings



I'd hate to think that it comes to Terry calling the game off b/c of Kaz and then loses Homefield advantage in the event that he may very well benefit from it this year

Unless Kaz was throwing 105mph on Sunday then I was wrong about the being off by 10mph



Ug wants to crawl in a hole right now and not leave for a long long time

Kazmir should be fine for a couple innings. High school guys do it all the time (or at least they used to). It's not that big of a deal.

Alright fellas, I'm going to go watch the end of the game. I've been watching it in the reflection off the glass in my office door. Go AL!

They were just talking about Terry calling the game like i mentioned before



Keep in mind those HS arms are why 7 out of 10 pitchers dont have much juice when it comes to college baseball


yeah Kaz looks really good

This game makes me hate Joe Buck even more....here's why


1. He jinxed the game by saying how fast the first 4 innings are going...thats a rule in baseball you NEVER say a game is going fast

2. He said in his interview with Cowturd that he thinks games are way to long now



Good...I hope this goes 46 innings and he has to call everyone of them


I always laugh thinking about the guys back at Sports Center who have to sit around waiting for this to end so they can tape the actual show...but they get paid for covering sports...how mad are the anchors from the 10 o'clock news who havent been on yet as of 1:35am!!! LOL....they are demanding overtime right now no doubt





Good thing I didnt Tivo this...I'd be ticked after watching it back and missing 3/4 of the game...we are now on "according to jim" on the guide
