Ah. That's the only way you can steal on Geovany Soto. Shooting him with a gun.

 

Fixed.

 

Guns don't kill people, Soto kills people..

 

Killing Geovany Soto doesn't make him dead. It only makes him angry.

Only Soto can prevent forest fires

Seeing as how they just showed and mentioned Lilly, I'd just like to mention how much man love I have for Ted Lilly. I just wish Gil Meche hadn't inexplicably chosen the Royals over us (NEVER thought I'd say that). Meche would look real nice in that rotation in Marquis's place.

The problem is 4 years of stats with RISP is a meaningless sample still. A full season of AB's is a meaningless sample, thats why so many guys have that one big career year and never repeat it. If you want to prove someone is really 'clutch' you are gonna have to be looking at 2000+ PA's of elevated abiilty with RISP and compare it to the league as a whole since its natural to have a better OBP with RISP.

Ok guys just woke up, could somebody give me an update on the scoring in the game? Thanks

 

 

DLee solo shot. Soto single + error scores the second run. Soriano solo shot. Lee base hit + Aramis HR for the 4th and 5th runs.

The best guy to look at, I believe, is David Ortiz. People point to him as a Mr. Clutch type guy, but his "clutch stats" are down across the board this year despite the fact he's having one of his best offensive seasons.
