Jays fans just gave this Diamond guy an ovation for finally throwing a strike. They should've just put Barney on the mound.

You must not be old enough to appreciate the dagger that was that Durham error.

Trust me when I say that the Bartman fiasco is nothing compared to that 1984 NLCS game 5 loss.

Huh, I guess I just happened to be paying attention to all of them. Seemed like there might be more with all the walks they gave up tonight.

e: Which after checking was only 5. Which is plenty, but less than I thought, I guess you don't get a complete picture of the game when you're driving around doing poo poo.
