dodger lineup is crazy overrated imo...the fact that they are second in runs is amazing to me...but i think over the last month they are starting to show their true colors

farg this should have been a four gamer

i don't think their lineup is as good as the stats indicate either, especially without manny in the lineup. but at the same time, they've been swinging fairly hot bats all year so to go in and shut them down offensively is still an accomplishment.

ha....Rollins is leading at shortstop for NL All-Stars. what a joke

Ibanez is the #1 outfielder (and Victorino is #6 and Werth is #8)

Utley is over a million ahead of 2nd place for 2B

Howard is #2 at 1B (Pujols)

Feliz is #4 at 3B

Ruiz is #5 at catcher

you love all star games dont ya

The baseball one, yeah. The other sports, I'll check out a few minutes but that's it...

The mlb all star game is by far the best of all sports mostly because they still play defense just the same as they would in a regular game. Diving catches, going over the wall to grab a would be hour, etc etc. The only thing that players really ease up on are take out slides at 2nd and collisions at home plate.

Nothing pisses me off like when an outfielder lets an hour go by.

LBIggle · June 08, 2009, 02:24:57 PM

especially when they have to go over the wall to do it.

the nba is the only watchable one. mlb all star game is awful when you have a 9th inning match up of random pirates all star vs. random orioles all star deciding the game. maybe if they had free substitution or kept the starters in it would be good.

Ah, the old days...

Why is Rose about to slap him square in the hiney?

Munson · June 08, 2009, 09:27:38 PM

And why does he seem so happy about it?

Little history lesson for the whippersnappers:

The picture is the last play of the 1970 All-Star game. Rose bowled over Fosse to score the winning run for the National League. Fosse suffered a seperated shoulder and was never the same player again. Rose caught hell for the rough play in an exhibition game, and of course you wouldn't see that kind of play in the All-Star game today. Bunch of Hoydas.

by rough play, do you mean rape? because it looks like rape.. and if thats what you mean.. i'm all for it.

per David Murphy on twitter, Lidge is going to the DL

Good. Either he's injured, or shellshocked.
