Our infielders should be taking the ball to the corner of the bag first and then peck for the hand if they have to. Nunez is always pecking from the get go and frankly most of our infielders do the same darned thing. The runner has to get to the bag. So that is where he is most often going to be.
And had he not tripped over his own two feet he actually would have made it home safely.
What are you arguing that he malingered AND tripped over his own two feet. Thats encouraging! I feel much better about the play now. I believe you but that is not much of an argument to be making.
Look at the video. He tripped over his own two feet between third and home looking over his shoulder obliviously. That as much as anything cost him the play at the plate.
Hanley did enough stumbling and bumbling for the rest of them who are sleepwalking but for Sale. Last I looked they didn't change time zones on a charter flight.
Well they can make that excuse if they won the Yankee series. But they didn't. So they needed to find it from somewhere. Too many of them going to the David Price school of professional attitude. "Sigh......its OK.....Sigh"
I swear to God...what is up with this team. We stumble and bumble though 7 innings and now we are tied up with this team. How we can sleep walk through games is just amazing.
That is always what I have thought and then I started thinking "well that is just too easy". But lets face it, its baseball, not rocket science. So I would bet you are right and its from that darned hotel.
Gibby headed to the clubhouse for quick jolt. "Ahhhhh There....I feel better now. Hey are we behind yet." F-ing gibby....gotta hand it to him though. Has found the only owner in baseball that would put up with his s***.
I would never go to this park without switching signals right from jump street. The Sox believe it maybe more than any other team. So why would you just let the Jays get away with it for even one inning. What ...are they betting that the guy relaying signals is out sick tonight? Is that it? Explain the logic of not switching signs right form the first inning if you think that is what is going on in this park?
If you throw to what you "think" is a hitter's weakness all the time, it becomes the hitter's strength. These guys are not bums...none of them are although I can be convinced that during some stretches JBJ could not hit the side of a barn with a bass fiddle.
Lavanche came out to get them mixing the signs as they think that the Jays are relaying signs from somewhere in the stands. That has always been the complaint here and the Sox know it. So why were they not switching signs right from jump street.
Shot of Price on the bench. Expecting big things from him tomorrow. We are indoors at Rogers. No grass to effect his allergies. Temp controlled environment so it won't be warm and then cold. I doubt it will be pet night tomorrow so no dog fur either. But then I forgot. Maybe he plays video games between innings. Could be a problem after all.
