You and him are on two different teams. Not in the same division though, for the sake of the argument.

He has a perfect game bid through 8 2/3 as Darvish did last night.

Would you try to break up the bid and keep his name out of the history books or go ahead and make sure he gets you out just like the previous 26 batters.

I started thinking about this after Yu had his bid broken up so late and just kinda related that back to me. I'm not sure what i would do if it were me. If the pitcher is my friend, no doubt let the best man win and shake hands afterwards.

Who would want anyone to give-in in that situation?

Look im just saying your brother is an out away from a perfect game, just go ahead and throw it you'll probably strike out regardless.

But seriously, not trying to be sentimental here but both sides have an argument.

I would strike out for a close friend if it was a meaningless game but not if it had any importance.

I know the question you really want to ask and the answer is no, she didn't drop the ball on purpose.

No way.

Well, I'm done here. Fellas, it's been a thin slice of heaven.

If my brother was facing me as the last out of his no hitter, you best be damn sure I'm trying for a bunt single to troll the frick out of him.

If I played on the Astros I would let him. Cause we're not going to playoffs anyways.

Honesty id probably say I want someone to pinch hit for me


If if I had to hit ( I'd already have broken the perfect game early in the game) id probably strike out

It would be the ultimate in one-upping, though, if you did break it.

Family being pissy at Thanksgiving? 'You haven't bitched his much since I broke up your perfecto'

I'd try to get the hit, just for the future trolling potential.

Yeah I just believe Dottie was too competitive to just let her sisters team win. but more than that.. why would she screw over her own team.. which she previously did all she could to win it for them.. in the same game.. including telling her own pitcher how to attack her sisters very weakness. She was trying to get her out to begin with!
