I just feel that Cora and Gonzo are close to each other in both offense and defense. Cora is generally a solid SS, it's pretty hard to predict ahead of time that Cora's going to make that error.
I don't really think it was anyone's fault. I'm pretty sure Tavarez looked at him the previous pitch, but he just got a really good jump and stole it easily.
I think we can cross off Meche off of pitchers who own us. I think the only pitcher who truly owns us is Lily with Rodrigo Lopez a distant 2nd seeing as we've already beaten him this year.
And you can make the argument that without Instant Replay the whole Yankee Dynasty may never have been as who knows what would have happened if the O's win that game and take a 1-0 lead in the series. The Yankees may have been a totally different team if they don't win in 1996.
