Gotta say, i enjoyed the TBS broadcast, wasnt too over the top like crappy FOX. Brenly is alot like Kruk with his info. I really enjoyed the Posey/Heyward bit they did when the two played vs eachother in HS. Allthough Dick Stockton is mainly an NFL/NBA guy, he held his own well in this game. It was a game i rarely found myself saying "WTF are you talking about", like a typical Buck/Mcarver crapfest....
Can't stand Verdouche though.

He was out but it was close and the awkwardness of it made it harder to catch. The Braves player didn't complain nor did their manager. And the announcers of the game even in the immediate replays did not catch it. It was like 4 innings later when the announcers readdressed it and showed he was out.
The Posey's Better chant was brilliant!!!
Merk: could you give us a summary of some of the things yelled at Ankiel during the game?

Come on guys. No one else noticed this? I'm giddy over Timmeh too but sheesh.
Smack of the stick:
Bochy for not calling the squeeze play with runners on first and third with Crapbloval at the plate. Yes, he is the one that hit into the DP, but everyone and their mom knew that if you let him hit against a guy with a good sinker that it would happen. One more run would have been HUGE in that situation.

How many times has Sandoval bunted in his career?
If the answer is zero and you looked that up after such a bunt failed miserably, can you say that you wouldn't have ripped Bochy for calling the squeeze?

The best thing to happen in that scenario is, Pablo takes a few pitches, because everyone in the park(except him) knew Lowe was going to give him nothing but low junk away, of course Pablo swings at everything BUT a strike. It was doomed before Pablo's name was even announced as the next batter up. Pablo has got to be one of the stupidest "hitters" in baseball.
