Yay for teh patented Dusty Baker "rally killing" bunt. Lets all root for bad strategic moves. The bunt's the smart move there. Lets waste outs! Gotta get that player into scoring position being down by only one. Smart move. Too bad he had Bynum try to do it.
Haven't people been complaining about the reference to "devil" in the name? The things that people complain about completely boggles my mind sometimes. But that's for a different thread I guess.
I feel like I could hit the ball better 1-handed than Neifi does with two hands. Maybe if he spent more time worrying about hitting the ball and less time worrying about grabbing his crotch every 5 seconds he could be a better ball player.
Ball was hit weakly between the pitcher's mound and 1st base. Z would have had to turn and fire to get the out at home, but he missed the ball when he grabbed for it.
5. 3 to Pujols. 8. 3 to Pujols. And 1 to Edmonds, Taguchi, Eckstein, Luna, and Rolen. Gonna be tough for Edmonds to get one with him expected to go on the DL. :D
Some great insight from Brenly on the difference between Lee and Walker at first place: "You can do a lot of things to get better, but you can't get taller."
Ground ball towards 1st/2nd pitcher goes towards 1st. Once he saw that the play was contained he should have gone to third. Z should know that there is a switch on and that there are 3 infielders on the right side of the field. True but pitchers are trained over and over again to slide to the right side when there's a grounder there. Can't really blame Z for Ronny throwing the ball blindly. He's got to actually make sure there's somewhere in the area of 3rd base before he decides to let it go.
