Around SBN: Jeremy Lin Sets Assist High In Easy Win Over Sacramento

Pirates are Bad; Peavy's Arm "Achey"

John Danks and the White Sox whitewashed the Pirates on Wednesday night. Danks allowed 2 runs or fewer for the 10th time this season while the Pirates were just an absolute mess in all phases of the game, including committing 4 errors in the 9th inning.

The bigger story, of course, is that Jake Peavy has some type of arm issue (link pending) and will skip his start Thursday with all other starters being moved up a day. That means no Buehrle-Strasburg battle for you match-up watchers.

 

homesickalien adds: 7 Reasons Why This Game Was Neato Bandito

1. Alexei hit his first triple since July 22nd.  We can obviously blame Buehrle for his dry spell.

2. Konerko continued right on rolling with 3 hits and a walk.  Does that guy know how to carry a team or what.  

3. Sox scored more runs than they left stranded.  Without any home runs.

4. Watching Rios run the bases tickles my fancy like no other.  Watching Rios run down a ball in CF does the same.  Lots of fancy-tickling going on these days.   Q better step it up before the sacred photoshops start.   Hey, why haven't the sacred photoshops started?

5. The poor Pirates were laughably lousy, especially in the 9th inning.  Witnessing your struggling team beat up another team is sadly pleasurable and probably dumbly inspiring.  

But I'll take it!

6. Sox secured the 3rd consecutive series win tonight.  And to think - it would be 4 in a row, if not for those pesky Indians!

7. Mid-April we were 4-7.  Mid-May we were 15-22.  Mid-June, we're 30-34.  A positive trend.  

Cheers to mid-August!

Also, I saw the movie Sugar last night: Amazing. I loved the understated tone of everything, but think it was probably lost on most. Not a baseball movie. But it helps if you’re a fan, have an understanding of the whole system

Yeah, Sugar is great.

I think it is a baseball movie, though. Definitely not heavy-handed, but it did show the overwhelming pressure and likelihood of failure in the minor leagues. Of course, it’s another facet of baseball reflecting life, so I’m sure it’s enjoyed by non-baseball types as well.

If we were 8-4 our record would be 34-30 3.5GB.

If we don’t win this division that’s why. Oh yeah, and because Quentin and Beckham are sucking. Who knows though, maybe they carry the team in the 2nd half if/when Konerko and Rios slide.

That being said, all it looks like they are out is $$$ as the players given up are not truly producing given the NL/Petco factor. I’d still rather have Peavy than those players, just a shame he costs so much.

OT!

I was going to simply wait until I get my copy and then whip up a 2000-word Right Rail post reviewing it ;)… but for now, a reminder that the Porcupine Tree DVD was released this week and dear heavenly gods, it appears to be everything we thought it would be…and then some!!

Utilizing multiple cameras and angles, the end result comes about as close to actually being there as you can get. But the thing that really makes Anesthetize stand out is the way that the cameras divide the action equally between each of the band members.
Although PT singer/songwriter/guitarist Steven Wilson often gets the lion’s share of the attention in this band — and rightly so — Anesthetize shows just how great the rest of these guys are as individual musicians, and how much of an actual “band” Porcupine Tree really is.

With many of the shots filmed from behind Harrison’s kit, you see everything from the double-bass movements of his feet during “Halo” to the all of those little cymbals and bells he hits during the intricate drum parts on “Anesthetize.” Harrison’s status as a world-class skinsman is no secret to PT fans of course. But seeing it up close and personal is a revelation.

ruined a buddy's day with that tidbit.

he moved to hawaii for a few years, and made a rule to only consume stuff from the islands. kona was his favorite beer. to his credit, he kept to his rule and gave up the bottles. apparently the kegs are still local, so all wasn’t lost.

Do you get any Elysian brews down there? It's a Seattle brewery (about a mile from my place), so I imagine no...

One of my favorite Pilsners around – Zephyrus.
And I’m sure I mentioned it before, but their Pumpkin Ale is worth the year-long wait (and in your case – a trip up north).

Their latest Pale Ale – Loser Ale – is bombdiggity.

never had the kona hazelnut

but the regular kona is okay to good. its great if you’re looking for a late night coffee but don’t want an espresso even though its probably time for an espresso. the high caffeine level will stave off any sort of heavy dinner sleepiness and the acidity will discourage more then one cup so you aren’t up all night.

but because it tears the shit out of my stomach after one cup, I prefer a milder bean.

Why fix something that’s not noticeably broken? We should focus on drilling in the ANWR instead. But seriously, thanks for the link. Just what I’m looking for to pass the time without scouring the web myself.

Sarcasm?

I suppose the plight of the Harlequin duck and the Northern Flying Squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus yukonensis) is something you find amusing. Partitioning 7.8% out of their 19 million acres of natural habitat for the purposes of oil exploration and development is tantamount to signing their collective death sentences as species. As someone with a monopoly on compassion, I cannot willingly let that occur.
