ALOHA MEANS GOODBYE

I actually felt bad for CC Sabathia last night. No lie. Here is a guy pitching his balls off for a team he knows he won’t be playing for next year, going out for the third straight game on three days rest, and essentially risking his body to carry his team. I gotta give it up to the guy…..but CC, come on brother. How can you walk Brett Myers in that at-bat? You blow two fastballs by the worst hitting pitcher in all of baseball, and then you start giving him changeups, curves, and garbage. You couldn’t finish the job dude. And that at-bat cost you the entire game.

 

This game embodied exactly why Philadelphia fans are the best around. People are cheering Myers’ at bat because they knew Sabathia’s pitch count was rising. Bottom line. The fans made that inning happen. And Myers? Wasn’t looking too good after that first inning. Someone needs to tell this guy that when he beats his wife the night before a start, he needs to do the job properly or else he has too much leftover energy the next day. If I’m the Phillies front office, I pay for karate lessons for Myers’ wife in the off season so she can fight back and give him a good workout. Make him sweat a little.

 

The series is over. The Brewers are throwing Conestoga High School’s very own Dave Bush out for game 3 against Souderton High School’s very own Jamie Moyer. Please re-read that. Dave Bush. The guy might as well wear a skirt with no underwear on for the game. As soon as Ryan Howard steps up to the plate in the first inning, Bush should drop his glove, walk up to home plate, lift his skirt, and let Howard sodomize him, unprotected. Game over, good night, grab the coat hanger Dave.

 

You know watching baseball on TBS is bad when you start wishing you had Chris Wheeler calling the game. It’s brutal, and if the Flyin Hawaiian doesn’t bomb that grand slam then honestly I may have killed myself. The Phils need to get out of this series so we can watch the games on Fox and listen to…..oh no, Joe Buck?

 

Bring on the Dodgers. And then the Red Sox.
