What a weird game so far, I had the first four innings on the XM in the car.

Is Steve Stone banned from Florida? Who is this dumbass doing color with Jason?

The fuck is a sweeper? Somebody commented on it here recently and I ignored it. But it’s like driving a car and then noticing that same model everywhere: now that it’s on my radar, every time benetti says sweeper I notice it.

Baseball has existed for about 150yrs and we’re pretending there are new pitches now?

It was talked about a lot during spring training. It moves more than a slider. The lingo is here to stay.

Intuitively, it would have to be a slider, right? The adoption of "sweeper" reminds when Mike, Sam, and Will burst onto the scene. At least on the Score, it seemed like everybody adopted those terms overnight without explanation or preamble.

Yes. It’s a slider. I’d accept sweeping curve.

What I won’t accept is some nerd what can’t help himself but chew with his mouth open on live TV try to invent a new pitch.

Why must they lose the game with this guy? It's not like he's Mariano Rivera.

Yeah they gave him a shot but he is not a closer

If you’re not Randy Quaid in Major League at this point, you’re just not paying attention.

You could see he had nothing. Is there a law that the guy who starts the ninth can't be taken out?

I mean it's not like I really wanted to see another one of their bums in there, but it was clear after the first two batters that he was going to lose if you let him stay in the game.

He’s not a closer. And the team sucks. And the rays are good.

Corey Kluber and Chris Sale were throwing it 8 years ago, but whatever. It's a term for someone who's good. Lopez does not have a "sweeper". Let's change a 101+ mph fastball to "heater".

That was magical to see. Walk off home runs with the ball flying in the air and all the fans cheering knowing the game is over before the ball lands. baseball at it's best.
