Crisp defends hard slide into Iwamura

You don't normally barrel into anyone covering second base on a steal.
They are prepared for that when the runner is trying to break up a double play.

That slide by Crisp was bush.

Just read the whole thing, so maybe there was a reason.
But since I hate Boston they are always wrong.

Quote:

As Crisp arrived, Rays shortstop Jason Bartlett used his knee to block the base while trying to catch the throw down from catcher Dioner Navarro. Crisp was safe on the play, but he injured his left thumb and had it wrapped up after the game.
"He put his whole knee in front of the bag. And that's not something you do," Crisp said. "You can do that, but that's shady. And he's not a bad dude, but that was shady. If you're going to hurt me, I'm going to come back and hurt you."
In the eighth, Crisp again found himself on first after a walk. He attempted to steal second base -- this time with Rays second baseman Akinori Iwamura covering the bag -- and sent a forearm into the Tampa Bay infielder. "I was not pleased with the slide," Maddon said. "There was something that happened earlier that I believe provoked him ... but I totally felt there was intent to hurt our middle infielder, and that's what I was upset with."

I was more perplexed by Coco's interview after the game, you would have thought he was the one attacked.

He got out of the way of a 3rd grade punch and had the pitcher as wide open for a brutal shot to the head and he barely foul tipped his skull, so sad.

Guess that's why they play baseball.

**I Are Baboon** · 06-17-2008, 11:55 AM

I went to Baltimore for a couple of games this past weekend. They played Pittsburgh.

Before the games we had a few beers.

And a few more beers.

And some food and beer.

And some beer.

And at the Friday game I had a crabcake sandwich.

The view from our seats. That's my beer in the cup holder. Sam Adams I think. Please note the two empty beer cups under it.

Another view from our seats. Club level (2nd deck) front row.

View from the 3B side.

Nice, this the park that started the changes.

**dg806** · 06-17-2008, 12:05 PM

Cool beer list! I like how they list % of alcohol.

It's really a cool park. We took the park tour Saturday morning. We didn't get to see the dugouts though because of some little bastard little league thing going on.

I scanned it.

I was marking down what each of us drank.

People go to the ball park and keep a scorecard of the game. IAB keeps a scorecard of the drinking.

So who were you rooting for?

shiznit2169 · 06-17-2008, 04:38 PM

Nice IAB. I was at that park when they played the Sox a couple of weeks ago. It was the game when Manny hit his 501st HR. Very nice ballpark.

soxmuscle · 06-17-2008, 04:50 PM

I was in Cinci this weekend and like IAB drank far too much.

We foolishly took 37south all the way down to 50east and turned a simple two hour trip into a 4+ hour ordeal. Oh well though, that just meant more time to drink cheaper alcohol..

Great American Ballpark has to be one of the better ballparks in the league. It was truly a great time, especially when Edwin Encarnacion tied the game up on a solo shot in the bottom of the ninth! I'm joking, I nearly died, but it made for quite the drunken celebration when Youk hit the game winning home run shortly thereafter.

On the trip home we ended up getting pulled over. My friend who drove drank the entire way there, the entire game and then on the ride home because thats the Indiana mentality (for the record, I'm more scared driving with him when he's sober compared to when he's been drinking).. we end up getting pulled over, officer asks for all of our licenses and whether or not we had been drinking.. I was about to fess up because I figured he knew from the cooler in the backseat but before I could, my friend (the driver) says that we hadn't been.. I didn't say a word, the cop takes all of my license as well as my girlfriends social security number.. he goes back to his car.. my friend proceeds to pack about 3/4's of a tin of chew in his lip because he "heard that it masks the booze".. the cop comes back, asks him to step out of the vehicle, he does.. guy now asks him if he had been drinking and he said he had a couple of beers at the ballgame but nothing more.. cop asks him why his eyes are glossed over, he tells him it was because he had a dip in.. the cop asks him to spit it out, sets up the breathalyzer.. my girlfriend proceeds to claw my arm, I'm thinking we're toast and I'm going to have to spend $400 dollars on an underage drinking ticket a few months before I'm 21 and BAM!... he blows a .07, under the legal limit which as a 21 year old is a-okay in the state of Indiana. The cop asks me to drive (I was pretty much blacked out prior to this buzzkill, I didn't know buzzkills were so real.. well thats a lie, it happens everytime I've had a run in with the police), I oblige and carry on our wayward son.. One of the more nerve wracking moments of my life.

All and all, an effing incredible trip

soxmuscle · 06-17-2008, 05:49 PM

Couldn't see those pics at work, IAB.

Good stuff.

I should have been rooting for Pittsburgh since the O's are an AL East rival, but couldn't help but cheer for the home team. Besides, let's face it, the O's aren't going anywhere.

Just for the record, I never said I drank too much.

Funny PO-LICE story though.

Your buddy must have been shitting bricks.

He's a 250+ pound farm boy, he drank all day and still didn't blow past the legal limit.. he's the one person I'm a-okay driving with in that situation.

soxmuscle · 06-18-2008, 08:51 AM

What about being hungover and driving, because with the Celts capturing banner 17, after I finish pooping I've got to go to work..

Cool. I've only been there once and it was like 12 years ago. And yes, the Yankees were even homos then.

The best park I've been to is still PNC in Pittsburgh. I've been to maybe a dozen parks.

**I Are Baboon** · 06-18-2008, 08:58 AM

I took these pics of my trip to PNC last year:

Very, very hoppy. If you are not used to hoppy beers, you won't like it. It is HARSH. I loved it though.

Wow.... absolutely stunning. I can't wait till my boys are a little older we are doing a tour. PNC is now on my parks to see list.

I don't know what it is about a ball field. There is just an aura.
