alright, we got one
Let’s minimize the damage and get out of this inning fast.
"I'm the glue, baby." -- Mark DeRosa, about his role on the team
What's the over/under on Lou getting tossed tonight?
I think the 1st base ump is getting under his skin…
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
They said he did during the break
"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope."

So that would be a TWSS?
as in That’s What Santo Said? ;-)
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."
wow - I think home plate ump is trying to make up for it...
Lou Brown: "My kinda team, Charlie, my kinda team..."

Good work Sue..

"Whoever wants to know the heart and mind of America had better learn baseball." - Jacque Barzun
This entire umpiring crew...
has been very poor. Cousins sucks at 1st, and the guy behind the plate isn’t giving anything that isn’t right down the middle.
AND my least favorite ump of all time is on this crew
angel hernandez. WORST. CREW. EVER.

both—the move to AAA was supposed to help him improve, but he’s a headcase, so it’s not helping.
