[Fred Hornkohl]

DeRosa popped out to shallow right field

[Schwarber Fan]

LMAO @ the Pirates announcers bashing him for not hustling

[mdwilla]

Jim didn't look like his legs where under him too well on that triple.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Just when my Edmonds love was fading, he stretches a double into a triple. Now for a lot of guys with twice the speed of edmonds, that would have been a double, but Jimmy hustled like hell.

[PrimeTime]

Damnit DeRo..No excuse for not getting this guy in..Fuku needs to do it

[17 Seconds]

Not liking the chances of scoring now

[Wolfgangbucks]

Give us a good ab here Kosuke!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Fukudome flied out to right field , Edmonds scored

[Andy]

Nice cut Kosuke!! :D

[17 Seconds]

That's a triple for anybody faster than Daryle Ward

 

Nice job asian

[PrimeTime]

Fuku really has been better sinsce they worked with his batting stance

[Hall7810]

Good Ab, he drove that ball.

[David]

Fuku!

 

Wow, I thought that might've been gone based on Len's reaction. Would've been sick if he came back and hit 2 consecutive HR right after the "tweaks."

[Schwarber Fan]

good job kosuke

[Yeti]

[bcruise]

Michaels looks like an accident waiting to happen in RF...let's keep hitting it there. :D

[Hall7810]

This zone is laughable.

[UMFan83]

Just when my Edmonds love was fading, he stretches a double into a triple. Now for a lot of guys with twice the speed of edmonds, that would have been a double, but Jimmy hustled like hell.

 

That would have been a triple for any player that didn't stare thinking it was a HR (I'm looking at you Soriano)

[Little Slide Rooter]

At least we got something off him.

That was pretty much my point. While Edmonds doesnt have the speed of a lot of our other guys, he hustles.
