i don't buy the "pressing" thing with the team. in Game 3, they had one or two runners on base every inning but didn't score. so, were they not pressing when they got runners on but started pressing after they reached? i think it's called a veteran pitcher taking advantage of a team's weaknesses
i just want to point out that A-Rod is the best SS on the Yankees, but Derek "Mr. Yankee" Jeter, in his totally selfless, team-only self, kindly refused to move over for A-Rod when Rodriguez was acquired.
Theriot is a gritty little hustle guy who fans love because he's small, white, and has a neat nickname. Thus, he'll be back and zero effort will be made to upgrade at SS
i can't believe every team didn't pitch the Cubs the way the D-Backs did. nibble on the outside, throw junk, watch the power bats look like asses, PROFIT!
While it's clear that Wisconsin wasn't as good as their #5 rank, I still hold out very little hope that Penn State's crappy offense can dent the Badger D
i have a G-D meeting to go to in a few minutes....brilliant timing. one tomorrow during game time too, but, of course, that might not conflict with anything at this point
Strike 2 was a ball but strike 3 was a strike. Either way, should be bases loaded with DeRosa up. watch the zone go down to the size of a postage stamp for Hill now but hey, only the best umps for the playoffs, right?
