I hope I am wrong but the ending of the game is not gonna come out in our favor. Here it comes again.

You wrong buddy!

Yes I was thinking the same.

Laughing, spitting his disease all over the field..

It comes down to Judge..... Steckenrider and Sewald are our two studs in the pen... I'm glad one of 'em is in there...

Whoa...did we actually just get a call there? I think we just had a Darth Vader Redemption Moment. One more strike...

Amazing

What a horrible AB for France..... swings at two pitches out of the zone... asshole

And to have that asshole Luetge strike him out is humiliating

What did Luetge ever do?

I'll let you form your own opinion:

Now Luekge, there was an interesting guy, but not because of anything he did on the field. It turns out that….you know what? I’m just gonna let Wikipedia tell you:

While in the Rangers organization Luekge was arrested following a May 2008 incident and charged with having committed rape and non-consensual sodomy. During the investigation Luekge lied to the police by denying he had sexual contact with the victim (an assertion proven false by DNA testing), and he pleaded no contest to lesser charges of false imprisonment with violence and was sentenced to 42 days in jail, time served prior to making bail.

After the July 9, 2010 trade that sent Luekge to the Seattle Mariners, team president Chuck Armstrong denied having any knowledge of Luekge’s criminal past, and stated if he had known, he would have stopped the deal with Texas. Up to that point, the Mariners organization had a long history of supporting groups who oppose violence against women, running a campaign called “Refuse to Abuse” and had previously suspended and traded reliever Julio Mateo, who was accused of beating his wife. After an interview with Luekge, Mariners GM Jack Zduriencik reported that he was “satisfied with the interview and it’s an issue that’s behind us.” Former Mariners pitching coach Rick Adair later told reporters that he had informed Zduriencik of Luekge’s legal troubles, and that Rangers GM Jon Daniels had made a standing offer to take Luekge back on the night of the trade. Adair had been the Rangers minor league pitching coordinator in 2008, when Luekge was charged.

OK….so we can draw one of several conclusions, and they’re all terrible. Either the president and GM of the Mariners don’t speak to each other, Armstrong is a liar, Zduriencik has no conscience and was totally cool with (secretly) acquiring a rapist, or some combination of the three. Wow. I think I’m done talking about this trade.

Everybody deserves a 2nd chance, most deserve forgiveness and redemption. I think he's grown up, is married with small children now. He'll always be an asshole. Now if the charges had been proven false, and I never heard that, I'd be cool with him.

We lost the series but score in every game. Skanks can't even score. At least we got the win. Heading home gotta get back on track. Needed this so damn badly.
