Pettitte looks like crap today.

Jon Bachrach said...

Nice One!

Greg Cohen said...

Wow what a bullshit call. He didn't leave early.

Bill Ding said...

God the umps shit the bed on that one.

Anonymous said...

Did you hear Joe Morgan?!? He still thinks Swisher left early after they showed the split-screen replay? Morgan is such a fuckface.

Greg Cohen said...

I thought McCarver was bad yesterday, until hearing Morgan today. God, can't these networks hire people with talent, or is that too much to ask?

On a more positive note, at least Pettitte settled down.

Greg Cohen said...

Nice, Giants pitched a shutout today. 3-0!
