4-39 to close out the season, i.e., Steven Drew numbers. But it doesn't look as if he'll be riding the bench for long if it's only for the rest of the season.
As Bob Costas noted last year, that makes replay a farce: it was never intended to micro-analyze the way players finish their slides. That play has been "safe" for over a 100 years of baseball.
The problem is that if one is a sexist or a racist pig (and this applies historically to a large percentage of execs in professional sports), then there ALWAYS seem to be better and more qualified (white) men available.
Probably my favorite player on the RS. That's why it drives me crazy when he goes into prolonged slumps and seems to be making no adjustments (something for which I blame the coaches, since I don't like blaming him).
Exactly. Why deny it? Also, batting 9th hasn't done much for him tonight (except perhaps reducing the number of Ks from 4 to 3). Chili Davis? Isn't correcting this in your job description?
I don't know. If you take away the two cheap infield hits, and, well, the hit-batsman, the triple, the smash off the wall, the bad throw ... it really wasn't all that bad.
