Last week of spring training!

I know, man. Let's get this season going.

3 rbj   ~  Mar 27, 2012 6:26 pm

2 triples In 2 Innings for CC.

4 rbj   ~  Mar 27, 2012 6:40 pm

Gritner! Oh well, spring training.

Wait, I just missed the beginning of that...what was Joba so choked up about?

Ahh, why did he jump on the trampoline.

(5) I blame Bobby Brady. Had he not overcome his fear and joined the others on the trampoline, a young Joba in Nebraska would never have overcome HIS fear and fallen in love with trampolines.

[6] Damn, I don't remember that one!

8 rbj   ~  Mar 27, 2012 7:20 pm

Dang, foul.

9 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Mar 27, 2012 7:23 pm

I know, that was hammered.

Just realized, no Kay! No wonder I'm enjoying it even with the Yankees losing.

[7] Weeping! I'm sure we are roughly the same age..that's a classic! You don't remember Bobby watching sadly from the upstairs window as the others frolic on the new trampoline? But actually I think that didn't cure his fear of heights..he had to rescue the new parakeet from a tall tree and that cured him..

Ah, the Brady's. Can't wait for the Jazz Kids to get old enough to watch with me.

[11] Joba really fell from a treehouse I hear. ; )

13 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  Mar 27, 2012 9:55 pm

[11] Hahahahah! I remember the parakeet, yes!

And now that you mention it, that image of him watching sadly does ring a bell.

Hey, you guys know there's an actchool for real MLB game going on right now, right? Mr OK and Boatzilla certainly must be watching.

15 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Mar 28, 2012 9:06 am

We were both there in right field standing area. Details tomorrow,the Japanese beer sales don't cut off after the 7th inning so a little ' under the weather' now. Ichiro delivered big time, local fans were thrilled, us too!

16 Matt Blankman   ~  Mar 28, 2012 12:00 pm

I'd just like to point out that Ichiro is ON A PACE for 648 hits this season, which would almost surely cement his election to Cooperstown.

17 Boatzilla   ~  Mar 28, 2012 7:06 pm

[14] Enjoyed it immensely. Perhaps too much.[hic] We were in right field staring at Ichiro's ass the whole time and chanting I-CHI-RO! Every time he came out to his position: standing O. It was a lot of fun. I will send some probably crappy, photos to Alex.

18 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  Mar 28, 2012 8:35 pm

[17] Yeah man! My head is raging this morning though..damn cute beer gals..they just keep smiling and pouring the beer...

19 Boatzilla   ~  Mar 28, 2012 11:07 pm

[18] I fell in love with 3 different beer girls last night. I'm contemplating Indian to kill the hang over. Southern Indian should do it.
