Marshall with a great down holding down the Brewers big boys today, which I can say since he wont be seeing them again. Hopefully, Lou has the good sense to take him out for the 6th.
because they have an odd angle on the plate and it would be hard to call a ball inside/outside. The ump is standing right over the top of teh plate. MUCH better view. But the 1st and 3rd have a much better view on swings. That's why they are referred to for check swings... They alos have a better angle one a borderline pitch when a catcher pulls a ball into the strike zone. .

Why dont the 1st and 3rd umps call balls and strikes? They clearly have a much better view, and it would lead to less arguments ober balls and strikes. All the HP ump needs to do is call the runner out or safe at home.
Milton has chosen a good time to come to life, as has Kosuke to return after a bit of a slump. Now lets see if Hoff can keep making us forget about that other first baseman once and for all before Geo ends the rally.
Is he still dating Dusty Baker's daughter? If so he has a very easy way to get himself into more money. According to baseball reference, He made about 14 mil between '02-'08, so unless hes an idiot, he should be set in that department.
Good job making Suppan work on what looked like it would be a 3 pitch at bat. Still, this would be a good time for the Soriano who as they say can carry the team for weeks at a time to come back.
