  1. OK, Kyle, you've got a 2-run lead. Keep it going.
  2. I think the pitcher may have been able to throw LaMarre out if his 3B hadn't run into him.
  3. I'm Nine of twelve but Gibson is Twelve of twelve.
  4. Looks like we're getting the good Gibson again today. I know this has been said before, but it seems like his performance is finally starting to catch up with his talent.
  5. You were 1/4 correct. Or maybe 1/3 if you think in terms of RBI.
  6. AND, he was a top-flight starting pitcher. No other player has ever come close to him in overall baseball performance.
  7. It's better to be good at baserunning than not good at baserunning but it is the least important of the four phases of baseball. Pitching is the most important, followed by batting, followed by fielding, followed by baserunning.
  8. It could happen. Remember we're playing the White Sox, and if we can punish them in game 1 their bullpen will be thin. Let's get a sweep!
  9. I'm surprised they didn't go with Slegers, but one of the reasons not mentioned so far for choosing Littell is to give him a little positive reinforcement. He and the team are all well aware that this is a one-and-done callup and he's pitching against an inferior team so it's a relatively low-pressure situation. It's much different than, for example, becoming part of the rotation replacing an injured starter during the heat of a pennant race. I hope the team tells him that and that he should just let it fly.
  10. Atta boy Kep! OK boys, keep it up and let's get at their bullpen.
  11. When a good opposing team gives us a break we need to turn it into some runs.
  12. Good job, Lynn, now it's time for the bullpen to hold on.
  13. I'm OK with Lynn coming out to open the 6th, but the leash needs to be very short.
  14. This is a fair point regarding this play, but it depends a bit on how the rule is interpreted. Regarding revisiting the rule, I think the runner should be allowed some room to avoid a tag. And I don't think we want chalk lines to define base paths. So it comes back to judgement by the umpire, and I think that's the best we're going to be able to do.
  15. OK boys, good start to the inning, now let's pile on a little.
  16. That ruling by the first base ump was a Maybelline call. That will "makeup" for the call that went against Esco.
  17. Replay of the pitch Rosario hit out shows it was a good 6" inside. There are plenty of good hitters who take almost every pitch outside the zone but bad ball hitters swing at any pitch they think they can hit.
