7/16/05 Nats (Loiza) @ Crew (Cappy) 6:05 CST

I can't fault Ned for that.

 

Huh? He gave up an out to play for one run in the 3rd inning! Why give up an out in any situation, let alone the 3rd?

[dogs with bees in their mo]

If you can't blame Yost for wasting an out for no good reason, then you're probably not going to blame him for anything.

[brewers19]

Woot, our boy Schreiber calling Guillen out on strikes.

[Getpaddled]

at the same time you can say how many games this year have the nats been in one run games..... yes 3rd is kinda early, but weeks could have beat that out if it wanst back at the pitcher.

[endaround]

So the Brewers should play for one run to keep it close to help teh Nats out?

[Sheets4theHOF]

Uh Cappy, stop walking wilson in front of vinny.

[no19no1]

The Brewers don't score a lot of runs anyway. A two run lead seems good to me considering the way they pitch.

 

I said I can't blame him. Ya'll can blame anyone you wish.

DARN TIE GAME

[Ennder]

I have no problem with bunts in some situations, but you need high average contact hitters up to make sure you get in that run and this year Overbay, Lee, Jenkins are not that. Its not playing the odds using weeks to bunt clark over.

[Getpaddled]

3-1 would have been 2 runs at the time

[endaround]

Bunting means you're playing to get one run instead of more.

[brewers19]

When randy johnson hit the bird pitching. Miller was catching. Who was batting?

 

All I can tell you is that it happened on March 24, 2001 in the 7th inning of a ST game against the Giants. And I believe it was Rod Rod Barajas that was the catcher.

 

EDIT: Upon further invesitgation, it was Calvin Murray at bat.

when you bunt weeks you KNOW you have a very good chance of it being a single. the man has speed. Its NOT giving yourself up like sheets or cappy would.

Well if the corners are in and the infield is waiting for it, not really. The only reason it was close was because the pitcher took a look at third base before he threw.

Green Shirt Guy is a dirty liar. The bat belongs to Yellow Shirt Guy. Green Shirt Guy should be beaten with the bat by Yellow Shirt Guy.

 

FSN is teh roxor.

I would have swung away after he missed the first one. If I was coach... but we all have are own ideas...

[Weirdos19]

[Getpaddled]

[molitor fan]

Now see, that was actually funny.

[PeaveyFury]

Now see, that was actually funny.

 

Yeah, I think that's pretty clearly his funniest line since starting with the broadcasts last year.

[Brian the Automator]

Anyone think Cappy would be better suited for a different ballpark?

 

I know that one wasn't a cheapie, but some of them have been.
