With Izzy and Franklin I think that chance goes to 85% this season....

Looper bunts to 1st. Izturis goes to 2nd.
Schumaker hits a slowwwwww ground ball to 2nd. DeRosa takes it, flips to 1st to get the diving Schumaker by a finger. Inning over.
Next:
6. Soto(1-2)
7. Edmonds(1-2, HR, RBI, GIDP)
8. DeRosa(0-2, K)
hell, that scares me as much as last inning

Damn, didn't you always get pissed at people when they posted stuff like this?
yeah.. but tell me that there isn't a 95% chance that this happens..
this season has worn me out.. i apologize
Worn you out? We were written off in March. Nobody, including most of us, thought we'd be here. And here we are in August sweating bullets because we are deep in this race. Hell, we've got the 4 or 5th best record in the league! This is great! Buck up boy and enjoy this thing!

Fortunately for us, Izzy threw 2 yesterday so he's unavailable, that's why I lowered it to 60%

Mather's actually tied for 5th on the team in home runs now. There's the big 4 and then a big dropoff to Schumaker, also at 6.

Soto strikes out on a pitch in the dirt. 2-3 on the dropped third strike. 1 out.
