I am 3-0 now against Defen.
I just beat him 15-5 (4 innings) with houston against SF.

In the 4-inning affair Ashby was 3-3 (HR, 2 Doubles, 4 RBIs).  Lopes had 2HRs.  Nolan Ryan; 2 hits.

I am supposed to mention that Defen was veeeeerrrrrryyyyy well on his way when he got here.  Guy has a breathalizer on his key chain..... nice!

I hope you didn't play BP style the whole time, because Stock played about 1023084738072038470238703287 games of that for the series on here.  You didn't stand a chance...

Stock destroyed defen with Hou...in BP style! Impressive.

Apparently defen is not a good hitter...cause the Giants can do some damage with the right dudes in their.

No damn excuses defen...that's not the sign of a winner.

You need discipline.

what exactly is batting practice style?  straight pitch?
Title: Re: austin games 1/17
Post by: Gantry on 01/18/09, 07:40:40 PM
Think it's right down the middle, no moving on the mound or slowballs/fastballs

Yep
Title: Re: austin games 1/17
Post by: broiler on 01/18/09, 07:53:36 PM
so in regular straight pitch you can move on the mound?
Title: Re: austin games 1/17
Post by: Gantry on 01/18/09, 08:14:24 PM
If our version is the regular version, then yes

In Gantry's version I believe any pitch is fair game so long as it is over the plate..... fastballs, knuckle balls, inside corner, outside corner, etc..

I am telling you right now that if were were playing anything goes that night, our first game would have been 1-0 in about 15 innings.
I have not played on a non-computer screen since dee-nee fest Chicago, and it took us forever to get the timing down.  There also seemed to be a (ever so) slight lag on my TV.  Not sure if it was because it was on a 65" TV or what.  I could not pull a ball to save my life in the first few innings.
The first HR of the night came courtesy of Benito Santiago in the 3rd inning of the first game.

I have also noticed lag in Sperling's big HDTV, it was pretty much unplayable.

They match.  Really nice kids.  I half expected Stock to throw me in a guillotine when I showed up.

But is it a 65" rear projection tv?

The lag definitely was not unplayable, but it was to the point where I had to start my swing as the pitch was coming out of the pitcher's hand if there was any chance of pulling it.
I don't know how ATG could be possible with that much lag unless you were just completely guessing where/how fast the pitch was going to be before each pitch.

The lag on Sperlings was truly brutal, his was a DLP.

52'' rear projection...i think at that size, the extra 13'' would not make a difference as far as lag is concerned.

Your tv sucks.

So true.

I also have a 52" rear projection, I didn't notice lag when I busted it out, but I'll test it when I get back.  Who knows.

Stock - you use a DLP?  Maybe the LCDs are fine...

No, it is just a normal rear projection.
That is why my TV was like 1100 bucks vs about 4000 for the DLP.
