I guess he wasn’t being held AT ALL

They say that it's never too late, but you don't get any younger...

as hard as he's throwing

it’ll probably bounce all the way back to Soto before Izturis could score

he's hitting .350 against rigties

and I doubt that bunt gets him there that often.

So yeah, dumb.

by TheBirds on Aug 8, 2008 4:43 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

wasn't a bad play

just got too much of the 95 mph heater. if it’s a little softer, DeRosa doesn’t make the play.

no

out by 2 steps. DeRosa bare-handed it.

bunt on 2-0?

i’m sorry, but that’s a horrible decision when you’re a .346 hitter vs. righties…

no

especially since the wind is blowing in at like 13 mph

In the world I see--you are stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower. And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn, laying strips of venison on the empty carpool lane of some abandoned superhighway.
