      Props to Bautista for really getting the bat going again. I was really starting to fear that swing with all its moving parts might never come back. He's covering the plate much better now and his timing is infinitely better. It's a hard game.

      Also, yeah, Shields' changeup is a nightmare to deal with. I think the stat up during the game said it's his most used pitch (he has two variations of it). He throws it 30% of the time.

      Aaand EE ties the game in the 8th with a two run shot!

        Never let fear determine who you are. Never let where you came from determine where you are going.

          Omar Vizquel showing he still has some value by making a smart play in the field to save the game for the Jays.

            Sure as hell worked last night... and today so far.

            Never question Joe Maddon. Never.

                The Rangers made it until May 21 without making a roster move. Neftali Feliz went to the DL with elbow soreness. It looks like the Rangers are probably going to sign Roy Oswalt to a deal in the next few days. I'm still holding out hope that the Brewers or Phillies fall out of contention, so they could add Greinke or Hamels at the deadline.

                  Its very good, but in the AL I'd take Weaver's or Felix's change every time.

                  The M's are a combined 5 feet from having 3 Grand Slam's against the Rangers in less than 24 hours.

                    So sick of you guys man. Rays just simply have our number. Maddon outmanages Farrell each time.

                      Hey Braves, it's okay to win against Cincy. Go ahead, try it.

                        FYP.

                        I know the manager doesn't have a TON of influence but damn it, it seems Maddon has some kind of voodoo magic. Any other team with the kind of injuries and youth on the roster would be struggling right now.

                        I really wish the Jays hired Dave Martinez, maybe some of that voodoo would rub off on us.

                              sweep


                              I have a question for the Padres fans. I was under the stadium today, taking a tour and a few guys walked by. They were obviously Padre players because they were walking to the visitors clubhouse, they were dressed very nice, and wore cologne.

                              I remember one of the guys was about 5'5" and Latin American. He looked kinda like Rafael Furcal. The leader of the pack, and they guy who talked to all of us sounded and looked like a great personality type of guy. He was about 6'5", had on a black cowboy hat, and had a large, bushy, blonde, beard.

                              Who were they?


                              On another note. The Batmobile and the motorcycle were at Busch today and David Freese and Jason Motte were there. My brother didn't even recognize them. Pretty cool.

                                Only one I know of for stolen bases is the road runner sound, and some errors I've heard Nelsons "ha ha" being played.
