May 12, 201511 yr Same old Hicks. Flailing at pitches in the dirt. Never got a fastball, because he never proved that the pitcher needed to throw one. Just one at bat, but I expected a little better.
May 12, 201511 yr I didn't see it (nor am i Halsey) but might it have been one of those "hit and run, and wait at second to see if it is a double or a fly out"?I think you're right, but it still doesn't speak well of his speed to not get home on a double with a head start. He did round third but got held up by the coach at the last second, and a faster runner would likely have been sent. It's really just my one gripe about Plouffe... he is SLOW.
May 12, 201511 yr Gibson strands another runner in scoring position. Have both teams stranded a runner at second and a runner at third now?

I was considered slow in baseball, but fast in football. I think I needed someone chasing me. Edited May 12, 201511 yr by Gibby
May 12, 201511 yr RB tipped us off to expect good SS play from Iglesias, and he erased Santana with a nice play up the middle. Largely positioning, but it still had the earmarks of a clean single, and suddenly t'weren't.
May 12, 201511 yr My baby girl tied up her championship series today. One more match, and I get her home in time for my wife's birthday on Sunday.
May 12, 201511 yr Hunter having a little fun after Simon throws him a floater on 0-0. Not quite as much fun when he pops up foul to the catcher on a similar pitch 1-1. Score's 0-0 after two and a half. Your Circus Boy Update.
May 12, 201511 yr Note to all slow pitch softball pitchers: You too can have a fantastic career as a MLB starting pitcher! Sign up for a try out with your local team today!
May 13, 201511 yr I suppose Plouffe's foot speed had something to do with it, but I'm going to lay the big share of the blame there on the following three hitters, not Plouffe.
May 13, 201511 yr Do you believe my wife just asked me to make her a nicoise salad? Who does she think she is Josephine?
May 13, 201511 yr Alright I made Pizza and I'm ready for the rest of this scoreless game.I'll be over in 4-5 hours. Save me a piece.
May 13, 201511 yr Author Do you believe my wife just asked me to make her a nicoise salad? Who does she think she is Josephine? I'm going to have to look that up
May 13, 201511 yr Author There is rare tuna involved. Rare Tuna would be? 1. Tuna caught in the Hibbing Area2. Tuna that tastes like Beef3. Tuna that can sing and dance show tunes
May 13, 201511 yr Author J.D. Martinez sure seems to be a decent cheap pickup. To me... He's one example of trying not to run out of options. If he indeed ran out of options with the Astro's.
May 13, 201511 yr You know Brian, I am putting the J.D. Martinez Homer on you. He is still pissed from you talking Shiznit to him from the Target Field Left Field Bleachers last August!
May 13, 201511 yr I don't think the Right Fielder's identity made much difference on that one.No. Every single ball hit to the outfield, even to LF, or into the RF foul stands, is Torii's fault if the batter's not retired.
May 13, 201511 yr Author Bark... I need a photo of Paul Molitor with Salami Earrings and Charlie the Tuna standing nearby
