    Paul Bako is awful. Just awful. With two outs Cook drops down a bunt and Bako throws it into right field. Unreal. Inning should be over.

    You know how it came out well after he signed that Corey's contract was for $3MM? Wait until we hear about the 2009 option that kicks in at 350 ABs.

    Paul Bako is one of the worst players I have ever seen, and yet Dusty wants to bring him back next season. Wow.

    I feel bad for Volquez right now.

    If you can't produce any runs, you better not give any away. Horribly sloppy throw by Bako with two outs. It's not like a run would've scored if he didn't get Cook @ 1B.

    What's hilarious is they ruled that a hit for Cook, which means those runs will be charged against Volquez. Wow. What a joke.

    He "handles the pitchers well and calls a good game".

    When Dusty was hired he said that he could attract some players that enjoy playing for him. He just didn't say it was Patterson.

    Yeah, I was shocked when Grande said that was ruled a hit. Gotta love that home cooking in the scorers booth.

    Oh yeah, I forgot. The Krivsky corpse is still available for flogging.

    I feel like I'm at a circus tonight...in 1 ring you have the Bengals stinking it up in a pointless football game, and in the other ring there's this....

    If I had beer and popcorn, I'd be set.

    Volquez is being forced to throw a ton of extra pitches thanks to Paul Bako.

    Our former left fielder just hit a 410 foot double off the high center field wall. I suspect he does not care for the dimensions in his new home.

    Inning, thankfully, is now over with a Holiday groundout.
