Favorite moment/play from the first half?

Wow, too many to count. The Ubaldo Jimenez no-hitter was pretty awesome, but I was in attendance for both the Rockies' 9th inning comeback against the Red Sox and their 9-run 9th inning against the Cardinals, so it's tough to choose (I'd have to go with the Cardinals game).

BQ: It was hot today in Denver, too, but I help my girlfriend haul away chopped up concrete chunks.

A moment from my team would be the extra inning win against the Dodgers. A really exciting win the for the Yankees. An overall favorite moment for baseball would be the perfect games and no hitters as well. There have also been quite a few perfect games or no hitters going late into the games and losing them in the 8th or 9th. Even though they might not be in the history books, still impressive.

BQ: I had the dentist this morning, and then went out to lunch with my brother and mom. It's rainy here and late, so I'm watching a Yankee Classic on YES Network.

Dallas Braden's perfecto. I wouldn't usually pick a game of with a divisional rival, but the guy overcame so much in his life, including the unexpected passing of his mom. Braden came out and threw a gem on Mother's Day. It was a joyful yet poignant moment.

BQ: Relaxing at home, went for a jog this morning. Just enjoying time off from watching baseball. I might tune into the ESPY's later though.

Jason Kubel hitting the first Target Field home run in a regular season game.

BQ- I've stayed inside most of the day.. I had to go into work at a daycare for a few hours.. but it's a hot one here in Iowa too.. near triple figures temperature wise... and a storm just passed through, but it's still hot. Usually storms cool it down, but not tonight apparently.

I Went to Safeco field, watched Cliff Lee throw a complete game shut out against the Reds. Favorite moment was that last pitch for strike 3, I WENT NUTS!!! :D

also last night, McCann with the 3RBI double for the NL win.... love it, was so stoked for NL also that was the first bases clearing double in the history of all star play

Opening Day at Target Field! It was such a great day. I love having outdoor baseball in MN!

BQ: Chillin' at home. We had some pretty rough weather early and I didn't want to go out and get caught up in it. Good thing too, because the rain and wind we had was crazy!

I would have to say all the no-no's, especially Braden's perfecto, the fact the it was on mother's day and his mother had passed, and his grandma was there. I would say runner up is the Rock's 9 run 9th, that was amazing. Best play was Buehrle's between the legs on Opening Day.

BQ: Went to Northwestern for one of my sister's college visit, it was pretty cool. It's ridiculously hot here too, 90's

The multiple Perfect games. Just unreal. Such a rarity in baseball, and to see several in one year is just so statistically bizzare that it just absolutely blows my mind. And one of them was Doc's, which makes me extra happy, because I've always loved watching him pitch. A true old school, complete game, from another era kind of pitcher.

BQ: Laziness. I'm too damn tired to be motivated to do anything at all.

hm i have to think about this one. i really have enjoyed the whole "year of the pitcher" as well. i would much rather watch a 1-0 game than a 10-9 game. Its just so much more intense. a game where everyone is just slugging the ball gets annoying to me. My favorite part of this season though, is watching Ethier. especially before he got hurt. he was absolutely killing the ball. everytime he came up you knew he would get a hit. it was so great to watch!

BQ: just hanging out at home today. and i know! its 100 where i am. gotta love cali weather..

I definitley enjoyed the perfect games this season.

BQ- I went to the beach earlier, it was so hot.
