Apparently, he's been without both his wife and daughter for a big chunk of the summer.
The Dr.‘s were doing a ton of tests, to determine a treatment course for Jada. So he’s been on the road, playing ball, then coming home to Chicago to a empty house. They’re back now from what I hear, and this clutch game winning hit could turn the tide for him.

thanks. im as frustrated as everyone else
about DLee’s DP’s etc, but really sympathize with all the family stuff he’s going through with his kid’s eyeballs and all—so I’m so glad he got the game winner after going 0-5. That could turn it all around for him.

Gotcha.
He seems to be more relaxed the past week or so.

Try
being out of bed at 4.30am before a 10hr workday for day games mate and see if there’s an excuse!

Wow
great game. What a comeback. The Brewers must feel like toast. And speaking of which, I wonder if Ned Yost is enjoying things in an I told you so kind of way? Or maybe he’s just drinking heavily and not paying attention.
by underdog on Sep 18, 2008 6:14 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Theoretically speaking, but say if the Brewers won the World Series
would they feel inclined to give Yost a ring?

OK
lemme tell you something. First off I think this is the worst umpiring crew in the business. CB punching out Fielder with authority on Monday, Joe West thinks he is God and Rapuano is a moody bastard.
NOW….as I guy who has umped more than half my life I know why Rapuano was so pissed. He was so ready to go home in the 9th that every pitch after that he got more and more angry. FUNNY STUFF.
Sorry to post now but just catching up on the DVR.

I don't think it's so funny...it's his damn job to umpire baseball games...
which he should know don’t have a time limit. I don’t get to do a half-assed job when I have to work OT…and if I do…I had better be prepared to answer for it.

Oh I agree....
I just hate being the guy bitching about umpiring. I cannot stand when people bitch balls and strikes. “Where was that” on in game threads is obnoxious.
I just think that this is the absolut worst put together crew….BY FAR. They combination of egos is horrific. The only thing this crew is missing is Froemming.
Maybe the World Series will have West and Froemming down the foul lines. LMAO them running to see a potential homerun. Maybe theyll have Ray Charles in the replay booth.
BAD

Joe needs to just go stay in Nashville and give up the umpiring thing...
he doesn’t have it anymore. But I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t make a living off his recordings either.
