Well it wasnt pretty but at least he got out of the inning without allowing them to score.

[Rob]

That's the way, uh huh uh huh, I like it, uh huh uh huh.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

looks like he's feeling the ball reasonably well.

[Andy]

Nice work, Z. :D Let's see some offense now!

[Vinestal]

Is the wind blowing much today? and which direction?

[erik316wttn]

looks like he's feeling the ball reasonably well.

 

He may want to do that in private on his own time.

[Flames24Rulz]

Pierre with an infield single!

[Jon]

Is the wind blowing much today? and which direction?

15-20 mph, in front center. The wind chill is below 30.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

haha, sweet!

[Andy]

Woo-hoo infield single Slap Nasty! :)

[Flames24Rulz]

Is the wind blowing much today? and which direction?

 

according to MLB.com, wind is blowing in 14 mph from LF.

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

speed puts pressure on the defense.

[erik316wttn]

That's why you gotta love speed.

[Flames24Rulz]

hit and run works perfectly!
