Who wants to guess how CB Bucknor will screw up tonight?

[mitlen]

He'll miss a DP at 2nd base.

Let's see......what's the stupidest thing that COULD happen?

How about this:

Runners on 1st & 2nd, zero outs. Ground ball to short.....Bucknor will call the infield fly rule

[Natsinpwc]

I think CB celebrates 420 every day. Among other chemicals.

even better, leadoff hitter launches a ball to deep left and he calls the IFR

2ND GDT of the year. 420 traffic got me home way late.

[GuyFromCO]

Heeaaaatttt. Stras gets a rematch next week

[nfotiu]

How hurt are Murphy and Werth.

[GuyFromCO]

FP - still crap

Origin of "National High Five Day":
In 2002 it was created by college students at the University of Virginia: Conor Lastowka from San Diego, California, Sam Miotke of Corvallis, Oregon, and Wynn Walent of New York City. They celebrated with lemonade and a profusion of High Fives. The act of giving a  "High Five", dates back to 1977, when it was first used during a Basketball game.

FP says Freeman's homerun goes 420 feet... "he smoked it." Long pause.

Got the "high" part right.

Thanks Kolko!

[mitlen]

The pitcher's name reminds me of a "poem".

[mitlen]

I wanna like Michael A. Taylor.

[mmzznnxx]

I'm glad they're giving Green a game before the eventual send down again.

[RobDibblesGhost]

I wanna like Michael A. Taylor.

Sac fly. That's definitely better thank his usual strikeout.

[mmzznnxx]

Goddamnit Strasburg.
