I like the Fosse

We never see “Theres his urban flame”

Didn't you know?

It’s our job as fans to overreact to everything.

Fire Frank Thomas. Trade Houston Street. Cut Emil Brown.

Actually, I’d be fine with that last one.

Yeah, yeah

This face? Egg.

But since I’m preaching not overreacting, I’m going to stick to my guns in the face of an exciting win and say I don’t much care for him as an everyday player.

Great job, Devine

I hope Huston’s taking notes.

To be fair

Huston had several close pitches called balls and Devine got a couple of balls called strikes.

I thought all Street's were in fact balls,

but Devine got a couple breaks – and threw the ball great. Best I’ve seen so far.

I'm talking more about the Melvin Mora AB

Two pitches that were right on the black on the outside corner were called balls that I thought should’ve been called strikes.

Let's hope the broken clock theory is at work here

Ellis does something productive that is

Maybe Suzuki can homer to left so Ellis does not have to bat but if he does, how about coming thru just once

didn't everyone expect Street to blow that save?

I did.

Street is a great closer

when two or more runs support him.

His one run save attempts make me nervous as hell.

Jumping from Double A from High A is the hardest for a pitcher

or so I’ve heard. Give him another month.

One of Willie Mays favorites

He’d purposely swing through pitches in the early innings, hoping for the same pitch when “it mattered”.
