Around SBN: Doug Flutie's Hail Mary, And Why College Sports Matter

Heilman can't be that much worse...

Than what the Indians have now, considering that after Herges walked the bases full and allowed a Braun RBI single, Fielder promptly deposited the first pitch he saw from Perez into the outfield seats for a grand slam, thus pulling the Brewers ahead 13-12. Yeeeesh.

Unbelievable...

I was already getting giddy that we’d be tied with Milwaukee in the loss column after tonight… guess not.

Someday we'll go all the way...

I was optimistic

The Brewers can hit with anyone in the league.

Their pitching, however . . . .

Same here.

I checked the game in the fourth inning or so, noticed the Indians had a substantial lead and felt quite happy. Couldn’t believe it when I checked back and saw the score was 14-12 Brewers. Thought they might get to Trevor in the ninth, but nooooooo…

I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.

WHEN PRINCE WAS IN .........

The on deck circle my wife who was watching the ESPN coverage asked me " I Wonder if prince has ever hit a grand slam ? " My reply I have no idea but the Tribe had better be very careful……..The rest is history,,,,

Funnily enough

You could have said “almost” and told her about when RJ stole his first grand slam…

Didn't our old friend Vizcaino

give up a couple as well ?

Yep.

Viz’s line doesn’t look pretty: 1.1 IP, 2 ER, 3 BB, 0 K. At least Woody stayed out of the carnage.

Here’s the box score.

A buddy of mine suggested they bring him in to face Braun in the 8th

I disagreed at the time . . . he may have been correct.

Braun - Fielder may be the best 1-2 punch in baseball

Texiera – ARod would normally get the nod, but A-Rod is off to a slowing start since coming back from the hip.

You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little messed up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny?

I think Mauer and Morneau

would like to have a word with you.

Heilman just isn't used properly

You would think Lou would have realized by now not to put him in with inherited runners….oh well.

Heilman - east coast point of view

I can only tell you that living here in CT. I am surrounded by Mets fans.

NOT 1 had anything good to say about Hielman time with the Mets

Apparently, they slept through the 2005 - 2007 seasons.
