nice ground out

Just to clarify for Joe Morgan
the balk was called because the pitcher stepped toward home plate.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but Luddy, you suck.
Ludwick, why are you such a free swinger? Why couldn’t you take the first pitch? I mean, the guy’s thrown 4 straight balls, and all you gotta do is take it for a ball, then he gets nervous and throws you a hanging, get-my-over curveball that you hit into Big Mac Land??

Are you fucking serious?
You’re bitching about a guy who has a double and a hr, and has been pounding the ball the entire past week?
Who cares if it was four straight balls, that was purposeful, it was to Albert Fucking Pujols. Like they are going to give him a stroke
The ball was down the pipe, if he didn’t swing then that’s when you bitch, not for that.

Yet another first pitch disaster
How many times have we seen that this year. We’ve had the patience to get a lot of walks early but when th game is on teh line late we’re first pitch hacking and invariably, first pitch “outing”. Madsen just throws 4 balls, granted it’s to APu. Ludwick was overeager. Maybe he felt that Madsen would try to hard to make a strike after the four balls. But so what, take a pitch, make him pitch to you….
TLR needs to institute a fine for this.

by Podlol on Aug 3, 2008 10:49 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Well, if you really think about it...
The last time Luddy swung at the first pitch, he hit one 410 feet. Since he’s just thrown four balls, that’s exactly why he’s swinging, because he knows that he’ll throw a get-me-over meatball at about 90 mph,so he can hammer it again. That’s acually a good decision.

a belt high fastball almost same location as the hr earlier. after simmering on it, you cannot fault him for that was a gift for a fan in the stands; he just got too excited and missed it. its a shame though that he made such poor contact and after that glaus hr it hurts more cause he couldn’t get a base hit or sac fly
