I don't get that when people say it. On a 3-2 hit and run, nobody is making the batter swing. And we got it anyway, hooray! Bunt, plz. It was a 3-1 count and it sure looked like the hit and run was on.
Even though he doesn't play for the Cardinals anymore, the hatred for Eckstein is still very much there. I get upset every time I see that little rat squat in his batting stance with his choked up bat.
He was warming up yesterday to come into the game, so I don't think there's any injury. It's just the result of having way too many pitchers on the team and not using them. Instead, we get to see Marmol pitch every day.
Ronnie is so awesome. His reactions are always the same. "Alright!!" He completely forgets he's broadcasting and just starts screaming in the background every time. It's fantastic. :lol:
Found this over at prosportsdaily and thought it was pretty funny. Don't know if it's been posted before or not. If it has been, I apologize. http://www.spankwad.com/northvssouth
