Can't blame Marquis this inning. More crappy defense leads to the unearned run.

 

Crappy pitching led to Pierre hitting a line drive single up the middle.

 

Well, singles tend to happen in Baseball. That said, he gets out of the inning easily if not for that horrid throw by Geo. I am not a Marquis fan at all, but that inning is on Geo.

 

You're still assuming that the player gets the ball, gets the tag down in time, and the ump calls him out.

 

As we saw yesterday, none of that is a guarantee.

Go back to the play and look closely. The throw was bad, but it bounced off the edge of the grass and bounced away from DeRosa. DeRo would have had that if not for the unlucky bounce.

 

So, basically it was not Marquis fault.

I tink he's assuming the ball just doesn't go into centerfield

I'm blaming Marquis for the line drive single to Pierre. That's just sad.

I said he was a badass, I didn't say he was a good person

It didn't matter that he was safe, if the throw doesn't go into center, Pierre never scores on the Kent two hopper to short.

You can thank Kent for not swinging at the pitch that Pierre stole on. Joe Morgan said so himself. :roll:

Exactly. Now for a badass President that was actually a decent human being, look at T.R.

One of the more underrated.

 

I just finished a psychology study that Freud wrote on Woodrow Wilson, also a semi-underrated President, despite his faults
