Valdes pitched great. We got no runs, lost it late. Yadda yadda yadda…

Great pitching. Park looked great, our bullpen tried to give it away, but managed to keep it together. Great great win late.
I’d write more, but I’m busy trying to catch up with weekend work backlog and getting over being sick.

Oh gee. We lose yet another one run game. About the only thing worth mentioning is HOW it happened – at least it was different.
Dave (can we get rid of this guy now) Burba plunked a batter with the bases loaded and the game tied in the bottom of the ninth. Sigh.

Well, what more can you say about this one except Cory Lidle? He pitched a masterpiece, giving up just one hit and one walk the whole game. Faced 28 batters total, and was brilliant. His only mistake was the double that Juan hit to lead off the eighth. After the 6th, I was actually rooting for Lidle to pitch a no hitter. Especially after we gave up a 7 spot. Figure, once you’re down like that, you might as well get a no hitter pitched against you.
Hate to lose, but when something like this is pitched against you, doesn’t matter when you give up 1 run of 50. Lidle was the name of this game.
Oh yeah, the retro uniforms were kind of goofy looking. For the first two innings, it didn’t look like the Rangers at all, but I agree with Tom Grieve, it had a very good classic feel to them. Too bad more teams don’t have uniforms like that. I think the Yankees are the only ones left doing that, aren’t they?

It was funny, when Jerry Narron came out to take out Kenny Rogers, the place booed pretty loudly. I didn’t see the need to bring in the bullpen at the point he did either, and joined in the booing, but Kenny got a standing O coming off the field, as he really deserved the win. I knew the moment Narron came out, the game was over. Our bullpen feels like the Mariners’ looked like about 3 years ago when they couldn’t win anything late at all. :(
Our bullpen blowing an extremely well pitched game by Kenny Rogers is the bottom line here.

Another loss. Not a surprise anymore, I guess. I suppose the only fun thing was that Valdes pitched well again, and we had several home runs. However, that’s about all we had, can’t win on HR alone. Especially when the usual culprit (bullpen) let us down again.

Two double headers in Kansas City. Four losses. This is really REALLY bad. Bye bye team. Roll up the truck and start shipping ’em out. Unfortunately that’s probably what is going to happen. Carl Everett can drive the truck.

Another loss to the Royals in KC. Can we not go there anymore?
About the only really nice thing was hearing Chuck Morgan’s voice again. Chuck – come back!
The game wasn’t anywhere near as close as the score indicates. We picked up three in the 9th to make it somewhat close (and actually almost tied it), but we were outplayed totally.

So much for yesterday’s commentary. Another one run loss. By my count, that’s 15 this year. Turn those around to wins, and we’d be 55-35. Sigh.
Another bullpen letdown. Don’t feel like writing about another one of those. Wait – Arod had two home runs, and is now the major league HR leader, and leads the AL in RBI’s, too (and slugging percentage, I think).
