I'll stick around so long as this thread doesn't get stupid like last night.
Regardless I’ll be watching the game on TV and listening to Rick Sutcliffe on XM radio instead of that moron Stockton.

Here, BUT....
But I may lurk in silence, as everything was fine last night (up 2-0) until I came on here, and then Demps implodes with the granny to Loney. Not feeling very presonally confident with the karma right now.
Think I’m gonna take one for the team, and stay away tonight.
We appreciate your sacrifice.

THIS IS OUR CENTURY!!
Does anyone know what size of bat Soriano uses?
and no TWSS replies. Great 1st batter for Z to retire.
Tommie Agee was out.
I think
Its either a 36 or 38 ouncer. I know as of a few years ago it was one of the heavier ones in baseball.
I had heard somewhere it was 40 but didn't believe it.
Bye Manny!

But I don’t know that I can believe 40. 36 would be my first guess.

Fontenot may be the least likely looking home run hitter. He packs a big punch with his 5-foot-8 physique. Where's the power come from?
"I don't know," Fontenot said. "I've always had decent power my whole life. I guess it's bat speed. Timing a little bit. My grown-man strength."
