Posted by on at http://www.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20020602&content_id=39923&vkey=news_tex&fext=.jsp&c_id=tex>MLB.com Recap

We won the game mostly on the strength of a 5 run first inning. Although in typical fashion we tried to give it away, yet managed to hang on. :)

What more can you say about this one? Shutout by Scott Schoenweis, who was masterful. What’s more surprising is that we didn’t lose about 8-0 as Dave Burba pitched for us!

Kenny Rogers pitches a complete game and barely misses a shutout. Not much else to talk about here. :)

Where oh Where has my Chuck Morgan Gone?

It’s been awhile since I wrote here. As I was at the ballgame last night, I really really REALLY missed Chuck Morgan. The new guy is still botching many player names, has called the player at bat out of order on several occasions, and the new music selections really SUCK! Most of the music played is bad cover songs of songs that I’d wager most no one wants to hear. It made it worse hearing all the “stuff” Chuck Morgan used to do in Kansas City. Not to mention the fact that the few times the ballpark entertainment staff tries to get the crowd into a game they either come in too late, or don’t even bother – like last night starting the bottom of the ninth. Nothing. Also, as another side note – the sound is really BAD anymore in the ballpark. Used to be loud and clear, but video effects either have no sound at all, or if they do have sound, it sounds like you’re hearing it as you would standing outside the ballpark. Or worse, it sometimes changes volume in the middle of the sound effect. The ballpark entertainment crew of three that replaced Chuck Morgan definitely gets a D-.
