Gameday Thread 6/13/2014 vs. Braves

[Frieri Meatball]

Lol Pujols didnt want to be pinch run for. Is this dude serious?

[SoCALkid]

Hamilton.....beast mode engage!

[jshep]

2 more runs would be great, Josh

[disarcina]

third period about to start at Staples.......WE WANT THE CUP - TONIGHT -- for that to happen Kings need to come from behind in the third......they've done it before.

[moccasin]

If anybody needs to protected in this lineup, it's Hamilton. He needs to hit 3rd.

[SoCALkid]

I seriously can't believe Sosh had Hamilton taking that 3-0 pitch. Seriously with Kendrick on deck you need to let the dude swing.

[SoCALkid]

Omg....

[SoCALkid]

Lol. Seriously. F you Sosh.

[jshep]

I seriously can't believe Sosh had Hamilton taking that 3-0 pitch. Seriously with Kendrick on deck you need to let the dude swing.

 

I don't know, I would be pretty surprised of Hamilton didn't have the green light basically whenever he wants to.

I seriously can't believe Sosh has Kendrick hitting behind our best hitter. That was a scheduled walk.

Freese, Conger and Cron(PH) gonna be facing Kimbrel down at least 1 run.

 

Can't say I'm overly optimistic about that.

[rafibomb]

We need to trade Howie and get Green up here already.

[Stradling]

I'm sure he had the green light he just didn't swing. Lol at blaming Sosh for not giving Josh the green light, which he probably had.

[jshep]

Freese, Conger and Cron(PH) gonna be facing Kimbrel down at least 1 run.

 

Can't say I'm overly optimistic about that.

 

Ahahaha never mind, another Ibanez PA against Kimbrel instead of Cron!

 

AWESOME

[Stradling]

Jeez, I don't even know what to say about keeping Ibanez in the game.

[jshep]

If anyone has a logical reason for:

 

Ibanez at 1st and due up 3rd against Kimbrel

 

instead of

 

Cowgill in RF, Calhoun moves to 1B, and Cron PHs for the pitcher's spot

 

I would LOVE to hear it

 

I mean I'm not loving our odds against Kimbrel anyway, but at least Cron has the power to take advantage of a mistake if Kimbrel makes one.

[tennischmp]

Gotta keep Ibanez bat in the lineup for the 9th

[jshep]

Can you strike out on fewer than 3 pitches against Kimbrel?

 

Asking for friends who are David Freese and Raul Ibanez.

Edited June 14, 2014 by jshep

[moccasin]

Ibanez at first. OMG I'm laughing so hard.

[jshep]

Good show, David

[Stradling]

Freese didn't stand a chance on that outside half of the plate fastball, not at 97. Not that many would, but Freese certainly didn't.

[jshep]

And Conger basically got himself out there.

 

It's all up to ol' Raul

[jshep]

He swung at a pitch that ****ing bounced. NICE

[jshep]

Kimbrel threw 1 strike there. And it was the only one anywhere near the zone.

 

**** you Raul

**** you Scioscia

[disarcina]

Gaborick ties it up 2-2  at Staples.

 

WE WANT THE CUP.......
