July 9, 201412 yr Marcell Ozuna decided to be a bro tonight and hit a go ahead homer in the 9th! And Brad Hand pitched out of some jams and shit. You gotta jizz it up, bro!
July 9, 201412 yr Allison called him Marcela after earlier saying Casey McGay. Wow. Go home Allison, you're drunk.
July 9, 201412 yr After McGehee pulverized that ball I thought it was not our night. Then I am sure we were all thinking slider in the dirt and Ozuna gone but when he hit that ball I knew he smoked it, just a matter of the wall. Ive become used to balls off Ozuna's bat not looking like home runs but going out.
July 9, 201412 yr Probably one of the best and most exciting games of the whole season. I know it's a long shot but this should be our biggest impulse of the season. I'm so excited and my love for this club has come back to the way it was at the start! GO FISH!
July 9, 201412 yr We are 5 out....better than that mountain of 7 when Sunday's play began.... 2 games in 3 days

Then I am sure we were all thinking slider in the dirt and Ozuna gone but when he hit that ball I knew he smoked it, just a matter of the wall. Ive become used to balls off Ozuna's bat not looking like home runs but going out. I predicted a HR. Sort of.
July 9, 201412 yr wow Ozuna! Pretty good outing from Hand and the pen too. that would've felt like an awful loss, now still a chance to take the series.
July 9, 201412 yr Absolutely must have a strong next four games. I really wanna say winning 3 of the next 4 could be a great difference maker for us.

July 9, 201412 yr Absolutely must have a strong next four games. I really wanna say winning 3 of the next 4 could be a great difference maker for us. I agree. If we do that and win 3 of 4 and maybe finish 4 back of first place by the end of Sunday, how will you feel about that? I'd feel delighted.
July 9, 201412 yr So I watched eight innings of watching the Marlins put up a turd on offense. Then I went to work and I hear from a friend that Ozuna won us the game. Baseball's funny sometimes.
July 9, 201412 yr Also for all the sh*t we give Dunn, looking through the stats and his numbers are solid since a horrible April. He may be incredibly frustrating to watch pitch but dammit if the results aren't showing.
July 9, 201412 yr Bob Davidson not calling that 2-0 pitch a strike nearly cost Cishek the save. Never Forget
July 9, 201412 yr Did Piazza do that? "You're" is misspelled as "your" not once, but three times. :lol Kidding. Just kidding. Really. But, whoever did what is an entirely accurate commentary on an incompetent ump is apparently, by virtue either of being unable to spell or understand contractions, unable to comprehend the unintended irony of "don't make a statement that shows your [sic] a complete moron." Other than that, I completely agree with the sentiment that Davidson (and a few other total incompetents) should be fired. But, incompetent umps are members of a union, so forget that. With umps in general getting about half of challenged replay calls wrong, I can't wait for the further expansion of the reviewable universe, not to mention the day when balls and strikes are called electronically and taken out of the hands of incompetents. Think Buckner and a few others in addition to Davidson. Can't happen soon enough. No more "he has a small/large strike zone today." No more "well, at least he's calling it for both pitchers." No more "if you're not throwing strikes/around the plate, you don't get that call." No more "a 10-year vet probably gets that call." No more "the catcher had to move across the plate, so he's not going to get the call." Imagine an ump behind the plate who makes only reviewable safe/out calls. Reviewable HBP calls. Reviewable catcher or batter interference calls. Reviewable foul/fair ball calls. Reviewable fan interference calls. It's not that I hate umps, I just hate incompetent umps. Who are protected by their union. Why do a bunch of guys making an average of 200K for 7 months of work need a union? To protect the incompetents among them.
July 9, 201412 yr Hey, the thread was exhausted, may as well pursue something else mentioned on the thread. Like crummy, sh!tty, blind, motha-effing umpires. But, if I'm not mistaken, that was their 21st 1-run win. Which ties them with PIT for the most in the NL, maybe in MLB. Pretty amazing for a ~.500 team. The same could be said of PIT. Neither team would be anywhere near contention if they weren't scrappy and able to pull off unlikely, close wins.
