It wasnt intentional. It was an up and in pitch that got away. Tony suffered
a facial fracture, dislocated jaw and retina damage.

The pitcher Jack Hamilton of the Angels was never the same either. After the incident, he was unwilling to pitch inside anymore. As a result he became a much less effective pitcher. He retired 2 years later.

Thanks- I didn't know these facts.

Is it possible to change "your" team?

Would you change "your" team for a partner?

What if "your" team and your partner's team are diametrically opposed???

What if "your" team sucks and your partner's is always in the headlines...in a good way?

HELP! I need answers!

Concerned Cubs Fan.

Forget me rooting for the Yankees. I hate them. GO MARINERS!!!!

foxyshaman · 05-30-2011, 12:29 AM

Ahhhh Buster Posey... poor young man. My favorite catcher with a fine fne swing. I really hope this injury does not have a long term career affect.

What if "your" team sucks and your partner's is always in the headlines...in a good way? I am a Red Sox fan. Win or lose, they are always in the headlines. Partner would adjust.

The Pirates have been kicking the Phillies butt! Two out of three so far. (who said the Pirates suck???) An afternoon game today. Just what I need, more sun.(burn)

Singing TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALLGAME........(and bring the broom) or as we say here RAISE THE JOLLY RODGER

Dominique · 06-06-2011, 05:43 PM

My answer would be No.

6 years from now, when they finally show up in the majors, if they haven't been traded like cattle, I won't know who they are, so I never bother.

The Pirates (pity them) want so baddly to be taken seriously as baseball owners and not newspaper heirs, have been spamming all of us with draft information.

OK, so we Drafted first (that also means we were the worst team in baseball last year) and we selected Gerrit Cole out of UCLA and he comes to us with 3 pitches!

......FAKE BOOK (not a typing error) wanted them to pick a bat. Now everyone is bashing the owners (yawn) again.

Whoa! What a game between the Giants and the Nationals. We game back after the 7th to tie it at 4 to 4. Finally, in the 13th, the Giants came through!!

Timmy didn't pitch that well overall, but, hit his 1000th strike-out during his first 5 years!! F***K Yeah!!! But, I am very impressed with Vogelsong. He not only pitches- he hits well and is pretty fast!

Saw my first giants game in CA in 1958 when I was 7 years old- been a long haul to see them doing so well and taking the WS for 2010. Hum Baby!!

They had the #29 draft pick... a short stop, guy named Panik.
