How does the ump make that call from the other side of the play?? Laughable

I agree, but corners of Cabrerra and Fielder aren't pretty. kinsler brings a solid 2b with some speed... trade made since for both teams.

Not as deep, as it has been in years past. That Cabrerra guy is supposed to be okay though...

Making Gardy look good putting him in the lead off spot

Fangraphs: Phil Hughes to the Max
In my humble opinion, the ballpark changes have and will continue to be (arguably) the biggest difference with Hughes' pitching this season. Not just the Yankee Stadium to Target Field change either. The AL East has great offensive players, but it also has Yankee Stadium, Tropicana, Camden Yards, Fenway, and Skydome... all unarguably raging hitters parks. Compare that to Target Field, Comerica, Prgoressive, Kauffman Stadium and Comiskey... we are talking about several more starts in pitcher friendly parks. For a fly-ball guy like Hughes that is heavily dependent on his fastball and hitting his spots, I would have to think that would do wonders for his confidence. Can really just "get after people". Whatever it is, this recent run with Hughes has been fun and I hope he keeps it going. Good to win games in different ways. The pitching of late is making a .500 season look like more of a realistic possibility.

Hope he does! Be surprised if he doesn't. Pitch count in the mid 90s, interesting to see if they let him throw 115+ tonight.
