Another nice judgement by Dunn on the flyball. Way to be smart and play it off the wall. ESPN should run a "Not Top 10" segment featuring solely Adam Dunn's fielding.
why is that important? seriously. does he have some sort of streak going? I'm assuming that is sarcasm. no. i was serious. why rollins? He ended last season on a 36 game hitting streak I think is the longest hitting streak since Paul Molitor hit in 39 straight.
Also thank goodness Rusch is throwing the day after. CG. Book it. Either that or Rusch will get ripped. BTW sethuel, I have another Joe Morgan quote for you from last night's White Sox-Indians game. He said that left handed hitters hate pitches that are low and inside and generally do not hit them well.
Everytime I see a manager go out to the mound to just talk to the pitcher and not bring in a new one, I just think back to 2003 when Grady Little left Pedro Martinez in against the Yankees in Game 7.
If that were Prior, it would have hit him in the face and ended his career. Well, maybe not that bad, but a Cubs pitcher would have been hurt on the play.
On espn.com it lists Hammond's ERA as ###. It's too bad he didn't give up like six or seven runs so then the next time he comes in and pitches 1/3 of an inning his era will still be unbelievably high.
