Oh yes, I was almost to the point of yelling at Hrabosky when he got on LaRoche for looking like he didn't care, while he was in the batters box preparing for the pitch. Simply awesome.
Popped him up. Thank goodness, I don't think I could've taken the Cards coming back by hitting two week ground balls, one that LaRoche booted and another that hit third base.
I figured it was somebody they were paying to play for someone else, so it just took a minute to remember who that could be. Not too many choices once it's narrowed down to that.
Looked like a strike to me. Lee has to swing the bat if it's that close. Maybe if Theriot was hitting. Never was over the plate and was easily low on Lee.
For those not in front of the TV, what happened? If he tipped it and Barrett caught it, what was the fuss about? Encarnacion said it hit him in the hand. Isn't the hand part of the bat anyway?
