I thought that was the 3rd K for him.
He and Ankiel are having a contest this evening to determine once and for all who has the worst batting eye in MLB.

didn't Deion Sanders struggle with those for awhile?

"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."

was funny, went to a Nats game this spring with some folks from Quebec who were old school Nats fans, and were honestly paying more attention to the hockey playoff scores. they had some fans, but by their last season in Montreal I think they were playing a lot of games in Puerto Rico or something.

The District.
I find it insane that they moved the franchise to D.C., a place where baseball has already failed twice. Two current franchised packed their bags and left the District. There’s a reason baseball hasn’t ever thrived there. I don’t really care to enumerate why, but clearly there is something wrong with D.C. as a baseball franchise’s home.

Nobody lives here for more than 4 to 8 years at a time, so you can’t bring up homegrown fans. Its not a bad sports town, and the real locals do love the Redskins. But, I think baseball is something that you inherit, like I did from my family, and if there is no family that sticks around, you can’t bring your kids up to be good, baseball lovin’, apple pie eatin’ ’Mericans.

Colby's not really that far back in the box, at least on the last pitch
Which makes him vulnerable to the FB and CH.
Hi, guys on the bench?
Well, I'm from Texas and my mama taught me to not piss all over myself.
curious on your thoughts on this
I was always taught to stand at the front of the box. Doing that supposedly 1) improves the angle on balls you hit, 2) catches breaking pitches before they really start breaking, and 3) rely on your natural ability to catch up to a fastball
by Expatcardfan on Sep 8, 2009 11:00 PM EDT up reply actions
Nice thought, but nope
You can’t catch breaking balls before they break, because they are breaking 20 feet in front of the plate. All you are doing is giving yourself less time to read the pitch and to react to the FB.
