The only words I've cared about from one are "Angels -- World Champions!" and the other is (finally!!) retiring at the end of the year.

"One of the Dodger pitchers needs to plunk Quentin..." What makes you think the bloodthirsty patrons in the left field pavillion won't get to him first via batteries or coins?

Mitch is good for some head-bobbin', irate chatter about player's personalities, but I don't think he's counted on for having an actual valid analysis (like Plesac). But the best part was Amsinger (whose even more idiotic) egging on Mitch with how many times he hit batters and threw at their heads. Mitch exploded and I would've pay-per-viewed to see those two off-camera afterwards.

She has a pretty big forum, and with her biting kind of humor, should be able to knock the org down a peg or two. But none of it will take away being tossed on an opener. Bitter taste for every game she now attends afterwards. Two guys in the RF Pavillion were lucky the Angels didn't rally in the 9th. They were leaning over the rail and banging on the metal frame to the scoreboard for ten mins. before two security staff came down. Told them to knock it off, they sat, security left. Six steps back up toward the tunnel for security, the two guys began banging again. Security came back down, and the weenie white dude one tried to muscle this drunk up the stairs, saying, "You're gone! You're gone! Let's go!" Then Bourjos popped out to end it and everybody grabbed their beer-stained calendars.

I was wondering if it was 80s night. I counted "Axel F", "Tainted Love", "Workin My Way Back to You" (it was sampled), a few others. Even some 90s with "Gettin' Jiggy With It". A perfect song for the bottom of the 7th -- esp. if the bullpen keeps imploding in the top half -- would be Bruce Hornsby, "That's just the way it is...something's will never change..."

At the thought of not hearing Dave's voice tonight, I dug up some tapes (and hit youtube) for some of his work to remember him by. Won't be the same w/o him this season.
