    I have the Rays vs Marlins game on while I’m waiting. I have been so busy, the rain delay is fine for me. Back to Mlb.tv tonight. For those of you who know, I have been laid off for 6 months now, I got a job today, start tomorrow. I am so happy I can barely sit still.

    Hey everyone!

    That’s awesome Karen! Good luck on your first day!

    Oh, congrats, Karen! What field do you work in? (You may have said before, but I don’t remember…)

    This is the second or third time now they’ve shown the “Top 9″ Don and Remy moments today. I’m not joking. We had better get some Milli Vanilli to make up for this.

  6. 2008 June 24 at 7:20 pm

    The hell with Milli Vanilli – Tek with hand on heart will do just fine for me.

  7. 2008 June 24 at 7:24 pm

    Hey, everyone! I’m late because I was taking care of my neighbor’s dog.

    Another rain delay? I guess I didn’t miss much!

    I don’t believe it – it’s Jim Rice!

  9. 2008 June 24 at 7:28 pm

    :)

    I forgot we were playing “I don’t believe it – it’s Jim Rice!”

    I feel compelled to say that every time I see Jim.

    It blows to be in Los Angeles, where all I can do is look at the “rain delay” graphics on mlb.tv…. I wish I could trade weather patterns with Boston right now.

    Tek, with a goatee and no beard, makes me very happy. So much hotter.

  13. 2008 June 24 at 7:34 pm

    Holy crap, dude’s getting a car!

    MLB.TV was supposed to be showing the Remy Day festivities… but I guess the rain delay screwed them up. Someone’s not paying attention at the control panel.

    Dominic is a smart kid. Nice jersey.

  16. 2008 June 24 at 7:37 pm

    Remy is secretly thinking “Get out of the picture Heidi.”

    Is it wrong that I was really happy to see Eric Frede?

  18. 2008 June 24 at 7:38 pm

    Tex, I think that’s a smartass kid.
    Or maybe both.

  19. 2008 June 24 at 7:38 pm

    I thought it was only the people who got the Extra Innings package got the pregame stuff.

    BTW, Jerry’s daughter Jenna is babealicious

    BTW, David Pinto emailed me to say that his source on that Heidi stuff is “very reliable”. So there’s that.

  21. 2008 June 24 at 7:42 pm

    I have a feeling this is Masterson’s night.

  22. 2008 June 24 at 7:42 pm

    That’s a whole lotta short pants and high socks in that picture.

    Thank God. Game time.

    That was kind of awkward. Coming right back from the Francona-Remy lovefest to the middle of Masterson’s pitch.

    Not as awkward as the folks who are on HD had last night – when they were talking about Youk’s eye as he was being examined by trainers, and then randomly played 3 or 4 commercials. When the HD feed got back from commercial, Youk was gone, Moss was in, and they were 3 pitches into the next batter.

  25. 2008 June 24 at 7:43 pm

    I hope to hear some classic Remdawg tonight.

  26. 2008 June 24 at 7:45 pm

    Man this weather has been crazy the past couple days.

  27. 2008 June 24 at 7:45 pm

    You Texy, after thinking about that when I posted the video, I remember going i don’t remember seeing that on the HD feed.

    I definitely believe Pinto although he did get duped on the ball girl commercial at first.

  28. 2008 June 24 at 7:45 pm

    Funny that he said “end of the world.” I was thinking it was “apocalyptic” thunder.

  29. 2008 June 24 at 7:46 pm

    Ooooooooops….. That should read you know texy

    got all excited with Masterson’s 1st inning.

    I’ll miss this blog when I start work, mostly evenings. I will be working in fine jewelry for JcPenney. I’m not complaining, good benefits, money. (good for Florida)

  31. 2008 June 24 at 7:48 pm

    So picking up a theme from last night, what kind of animal is Masterson? A colt?

  32. 2008 June 24 at 7:49 pm
    Texas Gal permalink

    Dan – Sure hope so. He’s been pretty danged fantastic so far. And Doug Davis has been fairly sharp for the Dbacks this year- his PECOTA was 5.02 ERA/1.53 WHIP and he has 3.65/1.60.

  33. 2008 June 24 at 7:50 pm
    Liza permalink

    If Masterson’s a colt, he’s a big, bulky colt. A Clydesdale, maybe.

    PLEATS! He’s like a terrier dog, I think.

  35. 2008 June 24 at 7:51 pm

    Check out mighty mouse, Pedroia. Awesome

  38. 2008 June 24 at 7:51 pm

    Whoa! Maybe he was happy to see Jim Rice too!

  39. 2008 June 24 at 7:51 pm

    Dustin!

  40. 2008 June 24 at 7:52 pm
    Karen permalink

    Yeah. Go Pedy.

  41. 2008 June 24 at 7:52 pm

    back to back maybe?

    Masterson is more like a giraffe, with those long legs and big ol’ eyes and goofy gait.

    I said Casey was a bear – but that’s inaccurate. He may run like a bear, but he’s ALL Golden Retriever. “hey guys! hey guys! what’s going on? what’cha doin? wanna play? huh? huh? huh?”

  43. 2008 June 24 at 7:53 pm

    Apparently I missed something while I wasn’t here yesterday…What’s with all of the animal comparisons?

    if anyone else has seen…..our poor boy Bronson is getting ROUGHED up by the Jays.

    I called David Aardsma a hammerhead shark.

  46. 2008 June 24 at 7:54 pm

    This is going well.

  47. 2008 June 24 at 7:54 pm
    Texas Gal permalink

    Maybe Bronson will write a song about it.

    I also find it HI-larious comedy indeed that the Jays have to play the Reds — after what Ricciardi said about Adam Dunn.

  48. 2008 June 24 at 7:54 pm

    Yes, and AHEM, someone was a warthog.
    C’mon, gimme a buffalo, at least.

    wow, you see that splash? where’s the drain system?

    That’s a lot of water out in center field. Wow.
