Can't really blame Theriot for that one. Just a stupid decision.

[TMan92]

What in the hell is that Theriot?

 

Absolutely ridiculous!

 

Good way to reduce men left on base.

That was on lou.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot caught stealing, 2-5, D Lee took second

[UMFan83]

2 on 0 outs and your 4 hitter up...wow.

 

I don't care how bad the catcher is at throwing out runners, thats just not a smart decision. If its the 8 spot in the order its more defensable but this is a really really bad choice

[Guest]

Horrible!

 

He leads the league in CS, someone get a clue in the organization. Aggressiveness for the sake of aggressiveness is idiotic.

[TruffleShuffle]

solid call, lou

A Ramirez grounded out to third, 5-3 , D Lee holding second

How was it his fault that Lou told him to run at a horrible time? It clearly wasnt theriot making the decision by himself or else lee wouldn't have ran.

[javy knows my name]

stop making [expletive] outs on the [expletive] basepaths

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS have stolen 16 bases in 20 attempts during their last 19 games.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[cheapseats]

Thanks, Lou.

Brain Fart. Theriot gets awful jumps though.

[TMan92]

What is Japanese for moron?

I hate this freaking ballpark and team (Marlins, not the Cubs) Edited August 17, 2008 by UMFan83

[Roast]

He so did not go around...

 

 

But either way, Kosuke really needs to pay attention on those third strikes. that's like the millionth time he hasn't ran to first on a dropped third strike

Stupid decision by Lou to send him. I should have clarified that.

The lack of hustle actually is very irritating.

Indeed, he does lead the league in CS for a reason.

[TruffleShuffle]

i liked it better when fukudome could hit.

[Andy]

I don't even care that he didn't go around, he shouldn't have moved the damn bat to begin with.

 

BTW, the ump is squeezing Demp and giving Volstad everything. This is the third day in a row of that crap.
