4/27 Cubs (Marquis) @ Cardinals (Reyes) 7:10 PM WGN/720

The hit and run does not work!!!!!!

 

I don't think that was a failed hit and run (Theriot/Soriano). Theriot does not have to change his strategy whatsoever because Soriano was running on the 3-2 count-he has to swing on all the strikes and look at all the balls anyway.

 

I dunno, Soriano had a pretty good jump and was about halfway to second when Theriot swung and popped it up. That kind of pitch is rarely swung at otherwise, considering it was high and inside.

 

Theriot swung at the exact same pitch with a 3-2 count in the first inning, and he should have taken it both times for a walk-I don't really see how Soriano running the second time really changed that fact.

That was the grittiest collision I've ever seen!

 

OK, that made me guffaw.

Can't wait to see it again on Baseball Tonight and listen to the hosts talk about how much of a trooper Eckstein is.

they won't show highlights...the yankees and boston are playing and there isn't enough time to cover the other teams in the majors tonight

1-2-3 would be excellent, but I'll be satisfied with anything that doesn't allow a run to score.

Single for Duncan.

They'll probably just mention Eckstein being "extra gritty" on the ticker.
