I'm not sure if even HE knows...but it's good to know he's back to his old self! I had taken a few years from watching ANY sports and when I came back he and Mike Scioscia (I hate the manager's name...could it be spelled any more difficult?) were the only names I recognized...so it's good to know he's back in action =D

Wow, that's what happens when two teams in the cellar of the NL play each other in a city that loves their football much more than their baseball.

They also can't stand the heat 95 degrees on a Wednesday afternoon.
I wouldn't expect a full house but more than 400.

Yep, it can be extremely humid in South Florida. Another reason we are pulling for a retractable roof stadium.

If they were winning, they would go. Miami fans are a "What have you done for me lately" crowd.

Eh...still, they coulda won that one and only 400 people woulda seen it >_<

Besides, more motivation from the crowd helps a little. Most of it is based on teamwork and skill, but motivation from dedicated fans is ALWAYS a good thing.

The Marlins won in the 12th inning BTW. Miami fans are more selfish then other fans.

I don't know if I would go with the most selfish fans, but from what I've seen they are very...uhh...temperamental. Like you said "what have you done for me lately" but you can say that about quite a few teams all throughout sports.

I can't believe the marlins won with the way Dontrelle pitched tonight. His 2nd win in his last 20 starts

IP:6.0 H:7 R:5 ER:5 BB:4 SO:3 HR:1
Plus two wild pitches. He improves to 9-15 on the season, with a 5.34 ERA.

I agree Wiitime was a good game, took for freaking ever though, I got so tire of it I just stopped watching. Though I did see the sox meltdown. 4.5 back of the sox now, think they can catch em?

D'Backs lost, Padres won, I'm a happy camper.

Cubs won, Brewers lost so Wii-Fi should be happy with a 1.5 game lead in the central, and unfortunately for S.S. his Angels lost to Dakuda's White Sox, but they still have an 7.5 game lead so they don't have much to worry about.

Yeah I saw that article...but hey, you win some you lose some and in the Angels case it's a lot more unbalanced: you lose a few you win a lot!

Besides, like you said, we're beating 'em overall which is the important part

Well once again Padres win, and the D'Backs lost. So I'm happy again.

Cubs won one/lost one so still have a one game lead on the Brewcrew. That will work for you Wii-Fi, right?

Yankees got destroyed by the Red Sox 10-1. Sorry Wiitime.

Angels squeaked out a 2-1 win over the Chi Sox. Not too bad eh? S.S.

Marlins whooped up on the Rockies 10-2. Big_League you should be at least a bit happy with that.
