Joe Morganisms

[HoustonGM]

As a relative newcomer to modern-day t.v. baseball broadcasting, I am frustrated by the brevity of the t.v. ads between innings.

It seems no sooner do I, inspired by the rl players on the tube, go to sim a few BM games, than I have to whip back to the goggle-box, 'cos they're playing again?

Is this sarcasm?

You want MORE ads?

One thing I wish that yesterday's broadcast crew had discussed is the crucial play where the Boston fielder (Lugol?), in an attempt to snare the winning hit by the N.Y. seemed to knock the ball out of its path toward the back-up fielder, who might have gathered it in time to prevent the Yankees from scoring.

Sounds like Lugo's M.O. He's just a flat out bust, and most people saw it coming from a mile away.

If it weren't for the night, you'd be able to see better.

If you drove up route 95 from New York to Boston, eventually you'd wind up in Boston.

If you hit a baseball 400 feet in Atlanta, chances are that it'd travel the same distance as one hit 400 feet in Los Angeles would travel.

[HoustonGM]

lol.

If King Felix pitches a 93 mph fastball in Seattle, it might be just as effective as the 93 mph fastball Felix pitched in Oakland.

If Joe Morgan talks in the woods and nobody's there to hear him, does he really say anything there either?

[robinhoodnik]

1st inning: Otis Nixon was the Fastest baserunner I ever saw.
3rd inning: Rickey Henderson was without a doubt the fastest baserunner ever.
7th inning: This Ellsbury kid's the fastest runner I've ever seen.

(hypothetical)

If I want a taco I go to Jack in the Box, but if I want Mexican food I go to Taco Bell.

Joe Morgan on ESPN sounds the same as Joe Morgan if he were on FOX

If you don't score any runs you'll lose the game.

[RedsoxRockies]

If the other team does not score more runs than you, your chances of winning might be better, if you can score runs

[dannymac910]

you have to hit to score runs

[nuzzy62]

you have to hit to score runs

aha!!! Wrong!! The Dodgers won a game last week without any hits
