Whew!

[98navigator]

There's the DP.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Very nice DP!

[Omar]

This is the Marquis we all knew and loved in St. Louis.

 

And that is the Marquis that will win the 2007 Cy Young. :roll:

[RichHillIsABeast]

That ball to Floyd looked catchable

 

Nah, that was way out in front of him.

 

Hey, at least he didn't misplay that one into extra bases. 8-)

[C.C.]

There's the DP.

 

That's the Marquis we hope to see....Well, expect all the walks and the homeruns.

That was just plain stupid to have Cedeno sac bunt. He had the best odds of getting an XBH there, much less reaching base.

 

How so?

 

How not so? Cedeno has better on base skills than either of Blanco or Marquis and is hitting way better than either of those players at the present time (eg more XBH this spring than Marquis and Blanco combined).

 

Cedeno isn't a world burner, but he's a better hitter than Marquis and Blanco.

 

My point is he's a light hitter

 

If Cedeno is a light hitter, then Blanco and Marquis must have eating disorders. :lol:

 

LOL, Blanco yes but I bet Marquis could hit for a higher average than Ronny. :lol:

[PrimeTime]

I was ok with Ronny bunting,Moves guys up with only 1 out so you can atleast make a run with contact.Instead of him striking out or popping out and not moving runners up.We all know Ronny isnt that great of a hitter

[Fred Hornkohl]

Soriano grounded out to second, 4-3

at least he didn't bunt with two outs!

they should retire the # 43. Maybe that would help or something

[Sammy Sofa]

PLESAC, PLEASE STOP.

 

I wish McCarver would do this game.

[RichHillIsABeast]

Gotta love those midgets that walk a lot, right Lou?

Are we going to hear a JP reference every time someone grounds out to second this year? I'm trying to forget that the Juan Pierre Experience ever happened.

[Sammy Sofa]

The Riot and DLee go great together!

[98navigator]

Riot steals a base

[Fred Hornkohl]

Williams in to pitch for Texas

[RichHillIsABeast]

Ludicrous speed!!

[98navigator]

DLee makes the deep fly out
