Garner benched him earlier this year for being too selective. Must be a nice problem to have.

What's that sound? That is Ensberg's OBP creeping closer to .400.

For those of you watching the game, did Walker make a nice play? I would assume so from where the dot is on Gameday.

Nope, just a somewhat routine popup to short right field.

OK. Gameday put the dot about halfway into right field.

Morgan Ensberg has more walks this year than Neifi has had total since the beginning of 2003.

That's not surprising. Lee is just about the only one on the team that knows what he's doing.

How appropriate. A strike 'em out, throw 'em out double play to end the inning.

Say what you want about Neifi but what I can't understand is WHY DOES HE HAVE TO GRAB HIS TESTICLES EVERY TIME HE MAKES A PLAY!!!!!

HOORAY FOR AUSMUS! :shock:
