Pointing out at the bullpen after a base hit, both hands, big clap, a "We're not worthy" gusto attached?  Now it's the bullpen that forced him out?  Tough to buy into that one.

Couldn't agree more.  Buck, from our camera angle, handled his role beautifully and got kicked in the man region pretty good there.  I can't believe that the media people are jumping onto the pile.  JOHN BUCK?!

As a side issue, Bob Dutton is getting better as the season goes along -- recently he shouldered into the key with a Baker-like "put up or shut up" dribble-drive on the trade deadline, while the rest of the blog-o-sphere gets .... more "different" in the NPB sense of the word.  
One blog just had the secondary blogger "interview" the main blogger for definitive answers to all things Mariner, as though somebody had interviewed John Clayton, or as if I'd had Moe deferentially Q-and-A me on my own blog.**  The Times' recent Q-and-A on the trade deadline was even odder, in my humble opinion.  Meanwhile, Dutton directs his attention to things that edify (at least) me, for what that's worth.
You think any of the people with access badges could jump into this site and rally from the baseline, like Baker could?  (Um, ya, take me up on that, if you're so inclined.)  Hope that doesn't come off as mean, but I have no idea what's going on around this city any more.
Kinda missing Geoffy yet?
Seattle is definitely a distinctive town :- )

**If anybody Q-and-A's me, it will be me, thank you very much.
