Then that probably means the 13 stands for 1913 when you graduated from State. Age has nothing to do with the fact baseball isn't your strong suit.

I was born in '63. And I know a lot about baseball. I also know that typically in that situation, you let someone else go to the mound besides your # 1 closer. if you don't realize that, you've got a lot of learning about baseball.
I also have acknowledged that if Cohen wanted to know how Holder's finger was progressing, it was a good time to bring him out and see how the finger was doing. I'm not totally privy as to the timing of Holder's finger situation. I was just making a point about how typically 7-0 leads are taken care of in the 9th inning. nothing more , nothihng less. just typical baseball talk.
but you made it into a bitch fest. and I realize I'm not old enough to have a grandson typing on a computer board. but based on you pussified bitch fest, I would bet you were not even floating around in your dad's nut sack while I was pounding twats..

And what kind of baseball. Atari 2600? Intellivision? Coleco? You don't know a damn thing about baseball at the level you argue about. What we do is way ****ing different than the damn travel team and little league your nephew and son dick around with. You sitting in the bleachers in Canton at the rec park isn't the same damn thing as high level D1 baseball. Just because you can download an app and watch a game on the internet doesn't mean you know shit about taking extra bases, pitch selection, or how to run a bullpen for June. Thanks for being a fan.

On a different note, just watched Cohen give the most positive post-game interview of the season.
Dear Lord.....this thread turned ugly.
OK.. so all closers are put in despite how many runs they are up in the 9th inning.. please excuse me as to baseball history.. I'll let you experts take over. I'm sure we have no un-proven arms that need experience. no team has ever let un-experienced arms get a shot with 7 run leads in the 9th. ALWAYS the #1 closer gets the call. I digress.. I guess I'm too old and I was mistaken as to when some other pitcher gets the call in those situations.. congratulations experts. I just must have missed something during my 40 years of watching the game. peace out.
Holder was called because he has looked shakey this season when called in close games. This was just to get his confidence back and maybe for his finger (still not sure about all that).
That's the end of it. You blew up for no reason, and people called you out for it. Have a good night
Yep, this pretty much sums it up.
Bully is partially right though, it is not the typical time for your #1 closer to come in...but it is if your #1 closer has looked shaky and may be in need of some live reps and confidence right now. So it was the right move.
This flexing of internet muscles was pretty fun to watch though. Thanks for the laughs.
