    When do they call it? You know they will if it goes much longer.

    Won't happen...that's how they got into the "this time it counts" BS to begin with. This is gonna have to play out, one way or another. The 1st team to run of out of pitching will put a position player on the mound and I'm sure the game will end shortly thereafter between hits and walks charged to said pitcher.

    Then the game becomes a joke once again!

  • LOL! This game is SO FN Cool.



    So Kazmir is on short pitch count...they are out of pitchers...they are out of position players.



    The only thing would be to double switch and make Kazmir like Left Field or something and the left fielder the pitcher!

  • mauer came out on deck, and would have hit had Longoria reached. they said catchers can come back due to injury to the other catcher, but they probably eased the rule to include the extra innings

    ***Nevermind, looks like that was Morneau
  • Kazmir vs. Webb in the 15th.

    which one hits the DL first?

    I think this could get interesting.
  • which one hits the DL first?

  • and Webb threw 108 on Sunday, and was not supposed to pitch. Which I understand. But don't go if you won't be able to pitch. Will this be the last inning? They can't possibly let kazmir or Webb throw any more. And they couldn't bring in someone who left the game 3 hours ago?????

    okay, webb is done, Lidge, the last NL pitcher, is in. they can't let him throw more than 1 inning.

    This will NOT go past the 16th ... it may not go past the 15th.

  • I know baltimore's hopefully out of it, but they can't be happy about sherill throwing in 3 innings (2 1/3 total) he's one of their best trade commodities right now
  • please note.

    JD DREW WILL END THIS GAME
