There goes the perfect game

Well, only for Canning...

[fan_since79]

Greinke got that call that Canning did not.

A perfecto is possible with this ump...and our lineup.

AHH!! My Penguins are about to come on. It's a playoff game which means it gets priority. My new laptop doesn't come until next week(one I'm on now has a broken screen so needs to be hooked up to the TV) and Lakers at on at 5:30 so that means I can only watch 2 games at time. 1 TV and 1 phone. Penguins get the big screen so I'll shuffle back and forth between Angels and Lakers on the phone.

Thanks for the update.

team looks lifeless, like they don’t want to be there. Maybe they should all take adderall or something.

So they are being honest?

I heard a podcast with Joe Buck last week.

He basically said that fans are used to the local announcers blowing smoke up the local team's ass. So if the national guys come in and announce it down the middle, the local fans get pissed.

He's right.

He’s absolutely right.

Sounds like some of the homers here who keep blowing smoke up our ass

[Vlad27Trout27]

These Announcer really are excited ralking about a trashcan. Multiple time All-stars, WS MVP and a piece of Scrap metal brought to Asstros by this Trashcan. Truly one of a kind.

Well when the other side says things that aren’t remotely true, its pretty easy to perceive it as blowing smoke.

I'm ok with Alex Curry blowing smoke up my ass... Mark Gubicza, not so much.

Canning at 53 pitches and 0 ER... is this where Maddon starts thinking about replacing him?

2 more batters

[fan_since79]

12 straight set down.

15 to go.

[Vlad27Trout27]

No need to Worry guys! The future is looking bright. We have Baby trout coming soon! might take 20 year, until that time we'll have Adell, Marsh, Detmers, and Rodriguez coming up! The Future is looking Good! 

 

Just a few more years of Pujols and Upton.

[Vlad27Trout27]

On that Note' 4 innings down for Greinke and 5 more to go for a perfect game!

The Brightside, Canning is pitching like Greinke, which is a postive. 

[fan_since79]

Baby Trout was 7 pounds, 10 ounces.

A bit on the light side.

[eligrba4ever]

Had to laugh at Baby Trout's initials: B.A.T.

He'll hit the gym.

I dunno about Karros sometimes.  Wanted Rendon just to knock it down?  Maldonado running, they had a real shot and he could have been out.

I think what he really meant was pocket the ball after the diving stop.
