K-Rod F's It Up

[yankeessuck013]

Francisco Rodriguez and the Angels simply dropped it.

 

Kendall alertly dashed home from third base with the winning run when Los Angeles' miffed closer flubbed the throw back from his catcher, putting one of baseball's strangest finishes in years on Oakland's 5-4 victory Thursday

 

"A 5-year-old could have caught it," said Rodriguez, who was charged with an error. "I should have caught the ball. It's unfortunate that we lost the game like that, but what can you do?

 

wow, never seen that before....gotta feel bad for K-Rod

That's too bad. I really like K-Rod.

Just saw it on baseball tonight. Stupid play. No one who plays baseball is gonna slump around the mound angry like that after a call.

I didn't see it. A's are so hot lately though.

He blew it against the Yankees a few weeks back too. The Angels are seriously the least clutch team in the majors right now.

I saw that play. I felt so bad for the guy. To loose that way must suck. Im sure he head it from the manager.

LMFAO, thats what happens when your bullpen is close to the top in the majors in IP right now. These guys are exhausted and when you're tired, you're liable to go brain dead and make mental mistakes. Ever since the previous roadtrip to Toronto & New York, they've been running on fumes. Before that marathon 18 inning game against Toronto, the bullpen was their strength, but since then, they have single-handedly been reponsible for letting the yanks and A's take 2 of three. However with the sweep of Seattle over the weekend, and the way they continue to battle, I still think its gonna come to ANAHEIM v. Boston for the pennant. With the exception for the last couple fluke losses to Oakland and New York last week, (games that were up in the 8th/9th inning) Boston is the only team that consistently beat them. They have OWNED NY and regularly beat Oakland this season with the exception of that last series. Should be interesting...
