@15, I didn't say the M's were BAD, I just said we can't hit. We've got one of the greatest pitching staffs in history, by the looks of it, and we need 'em just to stay close to level.

He did receive a standing ovation from the fans in his first at bat which was nice and well deserved.

It was entertaining that he was shaking off the catcher too. Like he had a pitch other than a fast ball.

And Fnarf, give our hometown boys some credit. They've crawled their way into 3rd place from a truly abysmal start to the season.

33 innings, almost nine hours.

Somewhere, a cricket fan is laughing at us, and all he has to say is: "Pussies."

Oh well, at least there's baseball.

Of course, pretty much any second baseman in the league could throw strikes past the Mariners....
