First I laughed, then realized how mean that is. Sometimes fans can go overboard.

 

[Smokestack Joe]

[PigSooie]

This is so cool.

The looks on the fans faces are pretty funny. They look like they're not so sure about all of this.

[Lammycat]

This is so cool.

That is pretty cool. Two observations:

1. I realize it was 124 frames in one, but they couldn't get Mike lowell in there?

2. Arod's Hamburger Helper-like gloved hands really stick out.

2. Arod's Hamburger Helper-like gloved hands really stick out.

[Lammycat]

Exactly.

 

You know, now that I think about it....if Arod can get into the batter's box very quickly and catch up to Beckett's pitch he's got the whole left side open.

[mfwahl]

This is so cool.

I'm guessing the intended use is not ogling random chicks in the crowd, but...

Lincecum hospitalized with "flu-like" symptoms

Lincecum hospitalized with "flu-like" symptoms

Is that what they call "severely hung-over" these days?

[Moe_Syzlak]

So, have you heard? Josh Hamilton used to have a drug problem.

[bjorn_skurj]

So, have you heard? Josh Hamilton used to have a drug problem.

NO! They really should talk about that more on TV to raise awareness.

[MrRain422]

I know it's just the All Star Game and that it's meaningless blah blah blah, but that was a heck of a game.

[bobbob1313]

That was awesome.

I was hoping we'd have to see some position players take the mound, personally. I would'ved lold.

 

Uggla looked bad. Let's not forget he hasn't played in 2 weeks, basically, but still.

[Mr. Kinsley]

Dan Uggla needs a hug.

[bjorn_skurj]

Dan Uggla needs a hug.

And to go play as a DH in the AL.

[bobbob1313]

And to go play as a DH in the AL.

 

He's actually a not half bad defensive 2nd baseman most of the time. One bad game does not make him a DH.

 

He also loses a ton of value if he's not at 2nd.

[Guest Jules]

What's with Youkilis at the plate? Incredibly annoying.

[PigSooie]

What's with Youkilis at the plate? Incredibly annoying.

 

The sliding of the hand thing?

 

 

He's not nearly as annoying as Julio Lugo.

[Guest Jules]

The sliding of the hand thing?

All of it. I don't like the guy.

 

Also, the New York fans should be embarrased with how they handled the Papelbon issue.

[sweetheart-mine]

I know it's just the All Star Game and that it's meaningless blah blah blah, but that was a heck of a game.

it really was. i was yawning in the eighth inning, and then glued with eyes wide open to the rest of it. it was great to see francona give leyland a big bear hug at the end. you don't see that too often . . . er, ever.

 

i felt really sorry for uggla.

[sweetheart-mine]

Also, the New York fans should be embarrased with how they handled the Papelbon issue.

yah, i even felt embarrassed for them, and as a red sox fan i've never experienced that feeling before.

how idiotic was that, chanting for your own league-team to screw up.

[MattZ]

These are Yankee fans we are talking about, people.

[Lammycat]

I blame the NY Daily News for printing something Papelbon said completely out of context. In a headline, none the less.

[caliber66]

Somebody at another place I frequent on the internet suggested that Dan Uggla cost the National League the game, but I don't see it. None of the runners that reached on his errors scored, and NOBODY on the NL did anything offensively the last 8 innings or so.
