Harry Caray would always do that. "And there's a long drive to left field! It might be! It could be! Aaaand....it's caught in front of the warning track."

Damn, didn't you always get pissed at people when they posted stuff like this?

Hey, they're winning the game at this point so I'm happy (but a bit nervous).

it's sad that when you're winning 2-1, there's still a 60% chance you're going to lose :(

I seriously hate bunting with 1 out. Why? Why do this? Especially with Schumaker coming up, who isn't that good at hitting lefties?

Looper bunts to 1st. Izturis goes to 2nd.

Schumaker hits a slowwwwww ground ball to 2nd. DeRosa takes it, flips to 1st to get the diving Schumaker by a finger. Inning over.

Next:
6. Soto(1-2)
7. Edmonds(1-2, HR, RBI, GIDP)
8. DeRosa(0-2, K)

Look at the replay and tell me he didn't get his hand in there before the tag..

I don't really have a beef with it because the ball beat him...but he sure looked safe to me
Did he slide headfirst into home?
No he did that little hook slide thingy with his hand trying to get in around Soto..

If you look at it it was extremely close..

Like I said, no beef whatsoever cause the ball beat him and we'll get calls like that too...but he could have easily been called safe looking at the replay
Thanks.
