i'm (hopefully) at home recovering from a minor heart procedure earlier this week but there's a new show set to air on wlur at 8pm tonight with two hours of (mostly broken) heart related songs. last week's show is also streaming on mixcloud and will air at 10pm tonight after the new show.

we also wrapped up our 'song quotes' theme last week. all semester long we've been starting shows off with a song that quotes lyrically from another song. we heard from: built to spill allo darlin, spiritualized, jeanines, okkervil river, hootie and the blowfish, car seat headrest, tori amos, uncle tupelo, vampire weekend, martha, the spinanes, destroyer, and u2.

혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 링크 <

넷플릭스 혜미 리예 채파 9 화 다시 보기 9회 파트리샤 나옵니다. 디시에서도 조나단 재밌다고 하네요.

도널드 트럼프 전 대통령은 지난 두 달 동안 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 적어도 세 차례에 걸쳐 이름 없는 남미 국가들의 지도자들이 환자들을 이민자로 미국에 보내기 위해 의도적으로 '미친 망명'과 '정신병원'을 비우고 있다고 주장했습니다. 드라마틱한 이야기의 각 버전에서 트럼프는 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 자신이 바빴지만 지금은 모든 환자가 미국으로 석방되어 할 일이 없다고 말하는 남미 정신 병원의 의사에 대해 최근 읽었다고 주장했습니다. 트럼프 대통령은 지난 4월 중순 전미총기협회 연설에서 "얼마 전 남미 국가의 정신병원에서 많은 사람들을 돌보는 의사가 마치 실제로 위대한 사람 – 그는 더 이상 할 일이 없다고 말했습니다. 그는 24시간 내내 일하곤 했다. 그는 '우리 환자들은 모두 미국으로 풀려났습니다.'라고 말했습니다.” 트럼프는 뉴햄프셔에서 열린 목요일 캠페인 연설에서 이야기에 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 더 많은 색을 더했습니다. “최근 심리학자에 대한 이야기가 있었습니다. 또는 정신과 의사. 그러나 심리학자. 남미의 정신 병동에서 일했던 사람. 그리�� 그는 '저는 24시간 일했습니다…'라고 말했습니다. ��은 사람입니다. 그는 하루 24시간 동안 정신 질환이 있는 사람들을 돌보며 일했습니다. 그리고 그는 거기에 앉아 신문을 읽고 있었고 그들은 그에게 물었습니다. 그가 무엇을 하고 있습니까? 그는 '나는 더 이상 일이 없다. 그 사람들은 모두 미국으로 보내졌습니다.' 당신은 믿을 수 있습니까? 이것이 우리가 하는 일입니다.”

그러나 트럼프는 청취자들에게 이것에 대해 그를 믿을 이유를 주지 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 않았습니다.

팩트 우선: 트럼프의 캠페인은 남미 정신 병원에서 더 이상 바쁘지 않은 의사에 대한 뉴스 기사의 존재에 대한 증거를 제공할 수 없었으며 남미 국가들이 정신 건강을 비우고 있다는 증거도 제공하지 못했습니다. 어떻게든 환자를 미국으로 보낼 수 있는 시설. 반이민 단체 두 곳의 대표는 이민에 우호적인 단체의 전문가 3명과 마찬가지로 트럼프의 이야기를 뒷받침할 어떤 것도 들어본 적이 없다고 말했습니다. 자체 검색에서는 어떠한 증거도 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 나오지 않았습니다. 웹 사이트 FactCheck.org도 아무것도 찾지 못했습니다.

이름 없는 국가의 이름 없는 정신 병원에 관한 뉴스 기사가 존재하지혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 않는다는 것을 확실히 증명하는 것은 극히 어렵습니다. 누군가 뒤늦은 증거를 제공하는 경우 이 문서를 업데이트하십시오. 하지만 적어도 사람들은 그의 이야기를 회의적으로 대해야 합니다.

트럼프 이야기의 증거를 검색한 방법 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기

혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 트럼프의 이야기에 대한 증거를 광범위하게 검색했습니다.

먼저 우리는 증거를 요청하기 위해 Trump 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 캠페인 대변인 Steven Cheung에게 연락했습니다. 이에 대해 Cheung은 증거가 아닌 뉴스 기사 링크를 보냈습니다. 이 기사는 Joe Biden 대통령 하에서 남미 정신 건강 시설이 비워지는 것에 대해 언급하지 않았으며 그러한 시설의 의사로부터 인용한 내용도 포함하지 않았습니다.

Cheung은 고 쿠바 독재자 Fidel Castro가 1980년 Mariel 보트 리프트에 정신 건강 환자를 포함했다는 보고서를 인용했지만(그들은 보트 리프트에 관련된 사람들의 작은 비율을 차지했습니다) 43년 전이었습니다. Trump의 이야기는 모두 Biden 대통령 재임 기간 동안 발생한 것으로 알려진 사건에 대한 현재 시제 주장이었습니다. 그리고 Cheung은 우익 웹사이트인 Breitbart News의 2022년 기사를 강조하여 베네수엘라가 범죄자들을 감옥에서 풀어 이민자가 되도록 한다는 내용을 다루었습니다. Breitbart의 모호하고 검증되지 않은 주장은 정신 건강 시설이나 의사를 전혀 언급하지 않았습니다.

그런 다음 트럼프의 "정신 병원" 이야기에 대한 증거를 요청하는 친 트럼프 슈퍼 PAC에 연락했지만 대변인은 응답하지 않았습니다. 다음으로 우리는 이민 감소를 옹호하는 두 그룹인 이민 연구 센터와 미국 이민 개혁 연맹을 살펴보았습니다. 이들은 그러한 증거를 알고 있는 좋은 후보가 될 것입니다. 센터의 마크 크리코리안(Mark Krikorian)과 연맹의 아이라 멜만(Ira Mehlman)도 1980년 쿠바에서 보트 리프트를 언급했지만 현재에 대한 트럼프의 주장을 뒷받침할 어떤 것도 보지 못했다고 말했습니다.

이민에 우호적인 기관의 전문가 3명(이주 정책 연구소(Migration Policy Institute)의 앤드루 셀리(Andrew Selee) 회장, 미국 이민 위원회(Aaron Reichlin-Melnick) 정책 이사 애런 레이클린-멜닉(Aaron Reichlin-Melnick), 아담 아이작슨(Adam Isacson) 국방 감독 담당 워싱턴 사무소장)도 트럼프의 주장을 뒷받침할 만한 것을 본 적이 없다고 말했습니다. 그리고 온라인 검색 엔진과 뉴스 기사 데이터베이스에 ��한 우리의 검색은 아무 것도 토렌트 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 나타나지 않았습니다.

최후의 수단으로 우리는 트럼프의 인용문을 트위터에 혜리미예채파 9화 9회 다시 보기 무료 게시하고 대중에게 지지를 구하도록 요청했습니다. 30시간이 넘도록 아무도 없었습니다.

Teams: Manly's axing after show-stopping game

The NRL's form player of the year, Tom Trbojevic, is set to make his return for the Sea Eagles after missing round 23 with a facial injury.Last week, Trbojevic was ruled out as a precaution amid conflicting reports the superstar fullback had damaged a pre-existing facial fracture.

Tom Trbojevic (Getty)While serious injury concerns were put to bed, the Sea Eagles took no chance, resting their talisman who is set to make an emphatic return against the Bulldogs this week.Meanwhile, star teammate Moses Suli has been dropped from Des Hasler's squad despite putting up a stellar man of the match performance last week. Suli has been dropped to reserves, replaced by Brad Parker who slots straight into the centres.

What to know about the situation at the US-Mexico border

New Post has been published on https://appradab.com/what-to-know-about-the-situation-at-the-us-mexico-border/

What to know about the situation at the US-Mexico border

US Customs and Border Protection has attributed the uptick in arrests in part to instability in home countries, exacerbated by the coronavirus pandemic and perceptions of instant shifts in US immigration policies.

“The biggest reason people leave and come to the United States is the situations happening at their home countries,” said Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, policy counsel at the American Immigration Council.

This week, White House press secretary Jen Psaki warned those considering coming to the US that they’ll largely be turned away.

“Now is not the time to come,” Psaki said, citing the pandemic and ongoing efforts to put a comprehensive process in place. “The vast majority of people will be turned away. Asylum processes at the border will not occur immediately, will take time to implement.”

Here’s what to know about the situation at the US-Mexico border:

Is there a surge on the US southern border?

Not quite. There is an increase, but assessing the scope of it is difficult because of the high recidivism rate, according to border experts.

Individuals encountered illegally crossing the US-Mexico border can be swiftly expelled from the United States with little consequence under a public health order put in place last March by the Trump administration. That’s led to single adults trying to cross multiple times.

“What we’re seeing right now is that the Title 42 expulsions continue to be the largest driver of increased numbers at the border,” Reichlin-Melnick said, referring to the law that allows for the quick removal of migrants.

In January, there was an average of about 3,000 arrests per day along the southern border, according to CBP.

A Homeland Security official cautioned Wednesday that January numbers may overstate the number of migrants arriving at the border because the current rate of recidivism — the number of people arrested for crossing more than once — is very high.

The US Border Patrol estimates that between March 20, 2020, and February 4, 2021, 38% of all encounters were people who had been arrested more than once for crossing.

Who’s crossing the border?

The majority of border crossers since October are single adults, many of whom are from Mexico. In January, the US Border Patrol arrested more than 75,000 migrants on the southern border, up from around 71,000 in December, according to the latest data. Of those, single adults made up around 62,000 arrests.

But the increase from month to month is notable given that there’s usually a dip between December and January due to the holidays, according to a former Homeland Security official. It’s particularly concerning among families and unaccompanied migrant children.

Border Patrol arrests of families and unaccompanied migrant children at the border, which is always a concern given the vulnerability of the two groups, went up from around 9,300 in December to nearly 13,000 in January. More than half were from El Salvador, Guatemala or Honduras.

How does this compare with recent years?

It’s difficult to compare today’s arrests with those of recent years because of the drastically different circumstances, as a result of the pandemic.

Last March, as the coronavirus gripped the Western Hemisphere and travel restrictions began to go into effect, apprehensions along the southern border began to decline and then picked back up again in June.

“We can’t do apples-to-apples comparisons,” said Andrew Selee, president of the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute. “For two reasons: une is because we don’t know the recidivism rate but also because Title 42 creates a different set of incentives.”

Selee explained that single adults might be more willing to keep attempting to cross because they’ll just be kicked back to Mexico if they’re arrested because of the public health order.

“It feels like the 1990s, when people tried to cross multiple times and there were really no consequences for multiple crossings,” Selee said.

What’s been the policy at the border?

The Trump administration put a series of policies in place that tightened the US asylum system and made it exceedingly difficult for migrants to claim asylum at the border.

Among those policies was one informally known as “remain in Mexico.” That policy, which has been in effect for two years, forced thousands of non-Mexican migrants to wait in Mexico until their US immigration court dates. In many cases, that’s meant waiting months, if not years, in deplorable conditions and under the threat of extortion, sexual assault and kidnapping.

During the pandemic, though, the previous administration largely came to rely on a public health order that allowed border officials to swiftly expel migrants arrested on the southern border back to Mexico or their home countries. That policy remains in effect.

President Joe Biden has moved to draw down the “remain in Mexico” policy by stopping the enrollment of new migrants. His administration will also begin processing individuals who were subject to the policy into the United States later this month.

What has Biden done so far to change the situation at the border?

Administration officials have repeatedly warned that changes in border policies will take time to implement. While reviews of those policies are ongoing, the situation along the border remains largely the same.

“We’re being very clear that given the current environment and lack of processing capacity between ports of entry that travel restrictions will continue for some time,” an administration official said.

Along with revisiting the “remain in Mexico” program, Biden’s signed executive orders also called for the end of wall construction and a commitment to invest in Latin America to address the root causes of migration.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently announced that the administration has suspended and begun the process of terminating Trump-era agreements with El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras that limited the ability of some migrants to seek asylum in the US.

Misinformation undercuts the administration’s message

In recent weeks, migrants waiting in various northern Mexican cities have been told to travel to other locations along the border under the false pretense that they’ll be let into the US through a port of entry there, immigration attorneys told Appradab.

Other messages, shared via the popular messaging app WhatsApp, have falsely told migrants who fall under the “remain in Mexico” policy that they’ll be allowed to enter the US on a certain date and directed them to present themselves to border officials on that date.

Misinformation is spreading along the US-Mexico border through smugglers or word of mouth, among migrants desperate for answers from the Biden administration.

It’s commonplace for smugglers to lie to migrants to sell their services, but years of Trump policies that left thousands waiting on the southern border have resulted in networks operating only miles from the United States, according to Guadalupe Correa-Cabrera, an associate professor at George Mason University who studies migrant smuggling networks.

It’s unclear whether misinformation is driving an uptick in border apprehensions, but in the interim, the rumors and misinformation are fueling frustration and confusion in border communities, threatening to undermine the administration’s plans for the border.

When MLB’s best team also blew a 12-run lead

Here’s what it was like to watch one of baseball’s biggest comebacks ... from the wrong side

I am a Mariners fan, which has led to many bad sports nights. The worst began with Dave Burba slopping what I can only assume was his take on a cut fastball a few inches off the plate away. Ichiro was at bat, Mark McLemore on deck, the twilight was falling on a beautiful Ohio evening, and the Cleveland Indians were hosting the 80-31 Seattle Mariners.

I’d never seen the Mariners on television before. I moved to Seattle when I was 10 and was a boring enough child to fall in love with baseball after my first visit to the Kingdome. Thanks to the vagaries of cable, however, I had to follow my team via radio and once-yearly excursions to the ballpark. That’s not necessarily a bad thing when you have Dave Neihaus guiding you through your favorite team’s golden age*, but it did leave me starved for non-aural baseball.

*As it turns out, 1995-2003 was also the Mariners’ only non-fecal age.

So starved, in fact, every time Seattle made it to a national broadcast, I would try to watch. And every time, for literally years, I’d get notified that, so sorry, your game has been blacked out. Until, suddenly, on Aug. 5, 2001, it worked. I was baffled by this turn of events, of course, but decided to take it as a note of benevolence from a higher power, and settled in to watch.

Pitch number two was in more or less the same place as Burba’s first offering. Three was an 84-mph fastball down the middle that Ichiro apparently thought would be too embarrassing to hit, a decision which cost him when he was called out on strikes a few pitches later. So far so bad, a younger, more innocent me must have thought.

The 2001 Indians were a good team and could pitch. A little bit. Bartolo Colon was in his intimidating pomp, and the arrival of rookie left-hander C.C. Sabathia helped give their rotation a one-two punch which was entirely irrelevant when Burba (or anyone else — Cleveland essentially ran a AAA rotation beyond the big two) was on the mound. At his best, Burba was slightly better than pure filler, but at 34 he was no longer at his best, and he was going up against a Mariners team that was set to absolutely torch him. Now he was up against Mark McLemore, who struck out too. Then Edgar Martinez chopped out to third.

If you follow baseball, you’re probably aware of this game, at least tangentially. And therefore you’re aware that this was something more disastrous than what was threatened in the top of the first: a mediocre pitcher chewing his way through a very good lineup. That’s a bad day, but not a traumatic one. Four batters into the game, when Kenny Lofton cracked a ground ball single back through the box, and hard, I feared a bad day. How disappointing it would be to have my first televised Mariners experience be a frustrating loss!

Aaron Sele wriggled his way out of the bottom of the first, which gives me a good opportunity to drop in this still from a between-innings commercial:

I think Pontiac would have been proud of how they’ve shaped modern society.

The Mariners scored four times in the top of the second. Two ill-considered dives produced a pair of hustle doubles, sandwiched around a Mike Cameron blast which bounced off the wall but would have gone about 20 rows deep if he’d been hitting the 2019 baseball. Ichiro then plated a pair with a delicate lob to left. Seattle was rolling, and I was happy.

I was still happier after the third. That inning went something like this:

Single Single Single Double Single Single Hit By Pitch Sacrifice Fly Walk Error Single Strikeout Lineout

It was worth eight runs and took the score to 12-0. No baseball team in 75 years had come back from a 12-run deficit. The Indians, who’d already been beaten twice at home by Seattle that weekend and were starting to look in trouble in the AL Central race, were staring at a blowout. No baseball team in 75 years had come back from a 12-run deficit.

Then one did. This game is in the record books as the greatest comeback of all time, the one in which Cleveland clawed their way back from a ludicrous deficit to win the game in extras. Blowing a 12-run lead over any length of time is difficult enough, but the sheer scope of the Mariners’ collapse is extraordinary. The teams each scored two runs in the middle innings, leaving the score at 14-2 during the seventh-inning stretch. The Indians had to compress history (and, for me, misery) into three innings.

They did so without the heart of their fearsome batting order. By the time the comeback began, both lineups had seen a slew of changes. Ichiro, Martinez, and Olerud were on the bench, as were Alomar, Juan Gonzalez, and Ellis Burks. The only really dangerous bats left available to either team were Jim Thome and Bret Boone, and the latter had been given the day off anyway. Despite the two clubs sending seven hitters to the 2001 MLB All-Star game, only Mike Cameron played the full 11 innings of what was to prove one of the most memorable games of the decade.

Anyway. By the middle of the seventh, I was in a pretty good mood. I was getting to watch (not listen!) to one of the greatest teams of all time kick the ever-loving shit out of some pretty capable opposition, and although it was a little annoying that most of the big bats were out of the game, all the Mariners needed to do to ensure my evening finished happily was not blow a 12-run lead.

AN ASIDE: Whatever happened to this dude? Did we lose him during our difficult transition to being a civilization of Mango Freaks?

END ASIDE

Through six innings, Sele had given up six hits, a walk, and two runs. Russell Branyan, on for Burks, greeted him with a screaming line drive into the right centre field seats. 14-3. The comeback was on. Only, it didn’t really look it. Two batters later and the Indians needed 11 runs to tie the game, and had seven outs to do it. Solo home runs weren’t going to do it.

If we had to pick a turning point, the plate appearance which made all that followed possible, it might be Lofton’s walk. With two outs, Einar Diaz smacked a two-hopper up the middle and well out of Carlos Guillen’s reach, but Sele was still cruising and quickly got Lofton 0-2 thanks to a generous called strike and a foul ball. One more strike would have sent the Indians into the eighth inning in an (even more) impossible hole. Sele threw exactly zero more strikes.

Lofton took four straight fastballs away. None of them were close. Omar Vizquel followed that up with a four-pitch walk, and suddenly Sele, who averaged just 2.1 walks per nine innings for the entire 2001 season, had walked the bases loaded. The clouds were gathering. Lou Piniella seeded them further by going to blowout specialist John Halama.

Halama, part of the return for Randy Johnson in 1998, was a terrible pitcher, AAA no-hitter aside. He somehow logged 110 innings for the 2001 Mariners, which is remarkable considering he didn’t strike anyone out and got absolutely blitzed by opposing hitters. The ‘01 Mariners had one of the strongest bullpens ever assembled, headlined by Kazuhiro Sasaki, Arthur Rhodes, and Jeff Nelson. Even the best bullpens, however, have their fair share of dreck. With an 11-run cushion and someone named Jolbert Cabrera at the plate, dreck should have been fine.

It was not fine. Cabrera took a big swing on a changeup away, and yanked the ball into left. That fooled Martin, who froze, took a step backwards and then charged in, allowing the ball to drop a step or two in front of him. Two runs would score, and the seventh inning ultimately ended, 14-5.

The Mariners’ bats seem to have considered their job done. After the fifth, they went a combined 3-18, with three singles. Having scored 14 runs in that early blitz, they quite reasonably went into cruise control. They’d never come back out.

Meanwhile, the Indians were treating Halama like a piñata. Thome, whose two-run home run in the fourth got Cleveland on the board, flipped a 2-1 “fastball” into the left field corner for another homer. 14-6. Marty Cordova joined him in the home run parade after a Branyan hit-by-pitch — 14-8. Suddenly the game was within reach, and after a pair of singles Halama was done. Norm Charlton was called in from the pen.

Charlton wasn’t one of the big three Mariners relievers, but he wasn’t bad either, and Piniella would have been expecting him to hold down a six-run lead even in a tricky spot. He probably should have, too. Vizquel was jammed on a 95-mph fastball away, but he somehow kept it fair and the ball looped down the left field line for a double and a 14-9 score. The Mariners then got a break in this breakless of games — Lofton misread a ball which bounced off Tom Lampkin’s right leg and was thrown out trying to score, which allowed Charlton to escape to the ninth with a five-run lead.

I didn’t yet know to be nervous. Eighteen years ago, the Seattle Mariners were not the Seattle Mariners™. They had not yet become the unbridled force for misery which has shaped the way I look at sports. Their playoff drought was zero years. They had reached the ALCS in 2000, they would again in 2001. They were phenomenal, and I expected them to win more or less whenever they played, whatever the situation. And when they lost ... well, that happened. I suppose. Infrequently.

Ed Taubensee led off the bottom of the ninth with a single. With Thome and Branyan next up, the situation looked perilous, but Charlton made quick work of them. Two outs, down five, and a runner on first? That should have been game over. Then the wheels really came off.

I hadn’t watched this inning since I saw the calamity unfold live, but it’s seared into my memory regardless. Cordova absolutely crushed a pitch off the left-field wall to knock Charlton out of the game. Nelson was summoned. He got Wil Cordero to 3-2, then struck him out looking on a wicked slider:

Well, he should have struck him out with that slider. Instead was called ball four. Missed calls have been more egregious, of course, but this one had a profound effect on my young psyche, for six pitches later Nelson himself was knocked out of the game by a line drive into left off Diaz’s bat — 14-11. Suddenly it was a save situation, and it was clear to teenage me that something had gone terribly wrong.

I was ‘watching’ with my hands over my eyes as Lofton scooched a single past David Bell to bring up the go-ahead run in Vizquel. Not a soul in Jacobs Field was sitting down. This was it. Sasaki started Vizquel off with a splitter that he swung over for strike one. A second splitter followed, well out of the zone. The battle would end up lasting some time.

Baseball is a sport devoted to tension. Stress is the soul of the game and has been since the foul-ball rules were finalized. In a sport with a clock, key moments are just that: moments. They come, they go, they are finished with and done in a flash. Baseball stretches its moments and its fans to a breaking point. I am reliably informed that during Vizquel’s at-bat I was having what looked like a small seizure. All I really remember is the creeping horror, every pitch promising redemption or catastrophe but only serving to prolong the moment and ratchet up the stress.

Sasaki’s fifth pitch to Vizquel was a 91-mph fastball down the middle and at the knees, called a ball for reasons I suspect are related to the will of some malevolent deity. Pitch six was just about fouled off, an emergency swing sending a splitter trickling off behind home plate. Pitch seven was popped into the stands on the third base side. And then pitch eight was guided by the despotic hand of fate onto the label of Vizquel’s bat.

The subsequent weak grounder was perfectly placed, right down the first base line. Ed Sprague was a) playing in and b) not John Olerud, so his desperate dive ended in failure. Lofton was 34, and not as fast as he once was, but the ball was so well-placed — and the Mariners’ defense so thoroughly depleted — that he scored from first with 40 feet to spare. 14-14. Tie game.

For some reason I watched to the bitter end, even though extra innings were essentially and entirely denouement. Cleveland had already won the game by drawing level, and the Mariners had already lost it by blowing the biggest lead in MLB history. Cabrera’s walk-off single in the bottom of the 11th marked only the final blow in a disaster that had already unfolded.

Eighteen years later, this still haunts me. Not like it did then, when it was merely a humiliation, a nationally televised scandal of a game in what was otherwise an enormously successful season. But now, with the Mariners mired in year after year of pain, when the organization considers mediocrity aspirational, it’s hard not to see this as a harbinger of the misery to come, an early visitation of the Mariners in their true colors.

Sometimes I wonder if the current incarnation of the team, the one slowly draining the hope out of my fandom since 2004, is somehow inhabited by the ghost of Aug. 5. It’s ridiculous, of course — a single game, record books or not, has no bearing whatsoever on the standings 18 years later.

But. Still. What if?

Correction: This article originally stated that no team in history had ever come back from a 12-run deficit. In fact, it had happened twice prior to 2001, most recently in 1925.

This article originally ran before Secret Base launched, but it’s a very us story, and we like to think it’s worth reading. So here it is again!

The comeback was on. Only, it didn’t really look it. Two batters later and the Indians needed 11 runs to tie the game, and had seven outs to do it. Solo home runs weren’t going to do it.

If we had to pick a turning point, the plate appearance which made all that followed possible, it might be Lofton’s walk. With two outs, Einar Diaz smacked a two-hopper up the middle and well out of Carlos Guillen’s reach, but Sele was still cruising and quickly got Lofton 0-2 thanks to a generous called strike and a foul ball. One more strike would have sent the Indians into the eighth inning in an (even more) impossible hole. Sele threw exactly zero more strikes.

Lofton took four straight fastballs away. None of them were close. Omar Vizquel followed that up with a four-pitch walk, and suddenly Sele, who averaged just 2.1 walks per nine innings for the entire 2001 season, had walked the bases loaded. The clouds were gathering. Lou Piniella seeded them further by going to blowout specialist John Halama.

Halama, part of the return for Randy Johnson in 1998, was a terrible pitcher, AAA no-hitter aside. He somehow logged 110 innings for the 2001 Mariners, which is remarkable considering he didn’t strike anyone out and got absolutely blitzed by opposing hitters. The ‘01 Mariners had one of the strongest bullpens ever assembled, headlined by Kazuhiro Sasaki, Arthur Rhodes, and Jeff Nelson. Even the best bullpens, however, have their fair share of dreck. With an 11-run cushion and someone named Jolbert Cabrera at the plate, dreck should have been fine.

It was not fine. Cabrera took a big swing on a changeup away, and yanked the ball into left. That fooled Martin, who froze, took a step backwards and then charged in, allowing the ball to drop a step or two in front of him. Two runs would score, and the seventh inning ultimately ended, 14-5.

The Mariners’ bats seem to have considered their job done. After the fifth, they went a combined 3-18, with three singles. Having scored 14 runs in that early blitz, they quite reasonably went into cruise control. They’d never come back out.

Meanwhile, the Indians were treating Halama like a piñata. Thome, whose two-run home run in the fourth got Cleveland on the board, flipped a 2-1 “fastball” into the left field corner for another homer. 14-6. Marty Cordova joined him in the home run parade after a Branyan hit-by-pitch — 14-8. Suddenly the game was within reach, and after a pair of singles Halama was done. Norm Charlton was called in from the pen.

Charlton wasn’t one of the big three Mariners relievers, but he wasn’t bad either, and Piniella would have been expecting him to hold down a six-run lead even in a tricky spot. He probably should have, too. Vizquel was jammed on a 95-mph fastball away, but he somehow kept it fair and the ball looped down the left field line for a double and a 14-9 score. The Mariners then got a break in this breakless of games — Lofton misread a ball which bounced off Tom Lampkin’s right leg and was thrown out trying to score, which allowed Charlton to escape to the ninth with a five-run lead.

I didn’t yet know to be nervous. Eighteen years ago, the Seattle Mariners were not the Seattle Mariners™. They had not yet become the unbridled force for misery which has shaped the way I look at sports. Their playoff drought was zero years. They had reached the ALCS in 2000, they would again in 2001. They were phenomenal, and I expected them to win more or less whenever they played, whatever the situation. And when they lost ... well, that happened. I suppose. Infrequently.

Ed Taubensee led off the bottom of the ninth with a single. With Thome and Branyan next up, the situation looked perilous, but Charlton made quick work of them. Two outs, down five, and a runner on first? That should have been game over. Then the wheels really came off.

I hadn’t watched this inning since I saw the calamity unfold live, but it’s seared into my memory regardless. Cordova absolutely crushed a pitch off the left-field wall to knock Charlton out of the game. Nelson was summoned. He got Wil Cordero to 3-2, then struck him out looking on a wicked slider:

Well, he should have struck him out with that slider. Instead was called ball four. Missed calls have been more egregious, of course, but this one had a profound effect on my young psyche, for six pitches later Nelson himself was knocked out of the game by a line drive into left off Diaz’s bat — 14-11. Suddenly it was a save situation, and it was clear to teenage me that something had gone terribly wrong.

I was ‘watching’ with my hands over my eyes as Lofton scooched a single past David Bell to bring up the go-ahead run in Vizquel. Not a soul in Jacobs Field was sitting down. This was it. Sasaki started Vizquel off with a splitter that he swung over for strike one. A second splitter followed, well out of the zone. The battle would end up lasting some time.

Baseball is a sport devoted to tension. Stress is the soul of the game and has been since the foul-ball rules were finalized. In a sport with a clock, key moments are just that: moments. They come, they go, they are finished with and done in a flash. Baseball stretches its moments and its fans to a breaking point. I am reliably informed that during Vizquel’s at-bat I was having what looked like a small seizure. All I really remember is the creeping horror, every pitch promising redemption or catastrophe but only serving to prolong the moment and ratchet up the stress.

Sasaki’s fifth pitch to Vizquel was a 91-mph fastball down the middle and at the knees, called a ball for reasons I suspect are related to the will of some malevolent deity. Pitch six was just about fouled off, an emergency swing sending a splitter trickling off behind home plate. Pitch seven was popped into the stands on the third base side. And then pitch eight was guided by the despotic hand of fate onto the label of Vizquel’s bat.

The subsequent weak grounder was perfectly placed, right down the first base line. Ed Sprague was a) playing in and b) not John Olerud, so his desperate dive ended in failure. Lofton was 34, and not as fast as he once was, but the ball was so well-placed — and the Mariners’ defense so thoroughly depleted — that he scored from first with 40 feet to spare. 14-14. Tie game.

For some reason I watched to the bitter end, even though extra innings were essentially and entirely denouement. Cleveland had already won the game by drawing level, and the Mariners had already lost it by blowing the biggest lead in MLB history. Cabrera’s walk-off single in the bottom of the 11th marked only the final blow in a disaster that had already unfolded.

Eighteen years later, this still haunts me. Not like it did then, when it was merely a humiliation, a nationally televised scandal of a game in what was otherwise an enormously successful season. But now, with the Mariners mired in year after year of pain, when the organization considers mediocrity aspirational, it’s hard not to see this as a harbinger of the misery to come, an early visitation of the Mariners in their true colors.

Sometimes I wonder if the current incarnation of the team, the one slowly draining the hope out of my fandom since 2004, is somehow inhabited by the ghost of Aug. 5. It’s ridiculous, of course — a single game, record books or not, has no bearing whatsoever on the standings 18 years later.

But. Still. What if?
