    Game #44 Los Angeles Dodgers @ Arizona Diamondbacks. 09/09/20

    Well, the Mighty Mercury, who have clinched a spot in the WNBA playoffs, just pulled out an overtime victory, despite a depleted roster. The high of watching the game didn't last long. Mookie Betts with a leadoff HR vs. the lowly Diamondbacks. I guess the answer is . . . don't take the...

    Do we have Griner? :shrug:

    And it's not just THAT we're losing, but HOW we're losing. And, once again, that Hazen has thrown in the towel.

    The Mercury pull it out 100-95. They are the pride of Phoenix sports. They have won 7 of their last 8. Without Brittney Griner. Good going, ladies! :)

    After revolving turnovers, DT hits a '3' to take the lead. And Skylar puts us up 96-91. 55 seconds to go. Turner with 21 boards.

    DeWanna gives the Sun a 1-point lead. Bonner fouls DT, but it is not called. Skylar with a '3' ties the game, and it's overtime. They're not putting a runner on 2B, are they? Oh, that's MLB. :shrug:

    Mercury with a steal. Skylar with a layup. Mercury up by 2.

    Skylar with a 3-point play gives Phoenix a 1-point lead. Bonner follows with a 3-point play. Mercury down by 2 with 57 seconds left. Vaughn ties it. But the Sun with another offensive rebound. 17 for the Sun.

    Hey, they're playing right into the Mercury's hands. :rolleyes: As Sandy said, win the 1st and 4th quarters.

    Bonner gives the Sun a 62-61 lead with less than a minute to go in the 3rd quarter.

    A letter from Mike Hazen

    Ya think he and DBook will work out a tandem trade to the same new city? :( I've mentioned that I visited Phoenix in 1970 and started laying the groundwork to move here in '78. My license plate reads (phonetically) PARADISE. As marginal as our pro sports teams have been (except for the...

    Connecticut starts the 2nd half with a 7-0 run. That was to be expected. I have faith that Sandy will not let it get out of hand.

    A letter from Mike Hazen

    It rolls downhill. How could it not? It is demoralizing for the fans to watch. How could it not be for the players to live it? Now that, as you pointed out, Ketel is on the DL as soon as the old, tired routine of moving him back and forth from 2B to CF. And the dysfunctional Manager not...

    Opening Day starter is MadBum

    I wonder how much of it is the frustration of playing on a team that has weak starting and relief pitchers, hitters and defense. And I think he's astute enough to see, especially now following the fire sale, that the problem is management. Did the Giants ever go on a 2 & 17 "run"? But, even...

    Mercury takes the first quarter 30-13. Tom and Annie discussed that the goal was to get off to a big lead (led by DT) and have her be strong for the 4th quarter. It's working so far for Sandy.

    Ketel Marte to the Il and other moves. 09/09/20

    I hate to have to say . . . we told them so! This took, what, a week? How soon before that happens to Varsho? Starting at four positions in the short time he's been here. CF, C, LF and, yes, DH. Sitting on the bench to come up 3 or 4 times in the game puts a different strain on your body than...

    'Glad to watch Tom Leander and Annie announce the game. Mercury starts with a 10-2 lead. Annie said, right from the start of the game, that we look different than the last game vs. the Sun. Although it's hard for me to root against my former fav, DeWanna Bonner.

    Emotion? Yeah, the team's emotion! Give it the eye test of what the D-backs are this season. Including the past 19 games . . . which led them to a fire sale. Throwing in the towel! That is the real danger of what we're watching. They have dismantled the team and it is irreversable. You can't...

    Well, despite getting our hopes up this game, both early and late, Goofybacks are now 2-17 in their past 19 games. This team is extremely weak on fundamentals. It is all about winning, and we're not! :(

    C'mon, now. Winning record is in the past. This is here and now! You walk looking back over your shoulder . . . and you'll walk into a brick wall. An embarrassing season and a fire sale. We're not the crazy ones!

    Escobar with a 2-out double. Peralta comes up as the tying run with two outs. He singles in a run and it's 10-9.
