see ya

Thanks Pierre and Neifi, 1-0

 

And thanks Dusty for having the foresight to play Neifi. Walker probably would've just clogged the bases.

 

Just say no to base clogging

 

Has a HR ever been overturned because there were guys clogging the bases?

 

Well, if a base runner falls behind the guy who hit it, I believe it is an out. It had to have happened at some point in over 100 years of ball.

 

That's why we need speedy guys batting in front of DLee and Aramis. You can't underestimate the importance of speed. :twisted:

[Fred Hornkohl]

Jones popped out to second base

[Vinestal]

That was a very red bat that JJ has, I wonder what its made out of, Ive never seen a bat that red.

[rawaction]

Jones is last in the majors in batting.

Yep. The faster they get back to the dugout, the quicker Lee can get up there to hit his solo homeruns.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Jones may not get a hit all season.

Barrett grounded out to third, 5-3

One Cards announcer says Jacque Jones struggled with Twins because he had pressure to do it all himself. The other says maybe he's just not a very good hitter. :(

[Andy]

Jones may not get a hit all season.

And he'd still bat fifth because he hits lefty.

[brinoch]

3-0? Take some more pitches, Barrett.

I've only been up for 25 minutes, and I'm in beautiful 75 degree weather right now. Is there any rain in the forecast at all today in Chicago?

Paint

 

That's why he can't hit, he's using a bat made of paint.

Hmm why not a green bat or a purple bat?

That's why I'm here...

[cheapseats]

Jones may not get a hit all season.

 

My prediction:

 

Doc Gooden gets more hits in 2006 than Jacque Jones.

Stripes? Polka dots? The possibilities are endless!

That would be fantastic. He should paint a target on the sweet spot.
