HH would've given Panther to Frankie

if he would’ve pick’d off some one off and thus getting the 0 pitch save.

No you wouldn't. Don't lie to us.

No, I'd have still voted for Shotgun

But KRod would have gotten a very honorable mention for that.

Just a note, scottnak

You scored me correctly, but in the summary on the right, you left off a “WILLITS: NO”
I had a vote for Reggie.

True,

But by default if I don’t have it listed it wont detect it, and I was too lazy to add that line :P

Forgetting to post your guesses is as bad as forgetting you locked your baby in the car in 100 degree heat.

I think Naps was mentioned only 3 times total in the game threads.

The silence was pleasantly different.

You can't do that

The “schmendrick” in the commercial is Lackey, not Howie.

Ouch

That’s a little harsh toast. GMJ might be having another bad season, but to out him and assign him a gay groupie club is a bit rough.

I gotta go with GMJ

Big single and an RBI. He even let one pitch go for a bases loaded walk (just after swinging at ball four)

My understanding is Panther goes to anyone going above and beyond what we expect? No?

That's the official metric! Good call. I am going to remember this one.

It will come in handy down the road…

Great game allround

Kendrick, Mathis, Kotch… Heck even GMJ wasn’t useless today. Great game (except for Figgy, Vlad and Lackey – but that’ll sort itself out).

My niece's first game at Angel Stadium

She’s from Little Rock, so she’s been to a few Travs games. This was the first time she got to see some ex-Travs in major league uniforms, which was cool. But she was hoping to see the Rally Monkey, who turned out to be unnecessary.

Mathis: 2 game panther streak

Great to see the role players stepping it up lately, even when Lackey & Vlad have off days (like infant says, those guys will be there in the long run). Lead is to double digits, but more importantly we’re finally swinging the sticks! We’re hitting well when our pitching’s down & pitching well when our hitting stinks. Now let’s go to the East Coast & keep that road magic up.
This is a big road trip; will be a good test of where we’re at as a club right now: 3 BAL, 3 BOS and 4 @ NYY. Let’s push that lead to 15!!

that ball is outta here....

What is with Big John, anyways?

He’s been shelled in two of his last 3 outings, and even though he won the game vs. Boston, he was hit hard (even if there were only 2 or 3 runs scored).

I had to listen to Gameday Audio on my laptop at the office

And after Mathis got the job done, pretty much everyone else wanted to know what on earth is wrong with me, and why am I shouting “I don’t believe it!”

I love it when this team surprises me.

No, I love this team, and there it is. Man, I hope I never move away from SoCal.
