Ban.
Aikman and Bradshaw?
Please. They are in the same league as Trent Dilfer and Jim McMahon as QBs who were taken to the SB by great Defenses and great Running Games.

its hard to be glad hamilton got a homer
knowing either jamey wright will come in and blow it, or the umpires will use their 5 feet within home plate rule.

The pitch tracker...
…should that on the inside part of the plate, but it looked pretty clearly on the outside part of the plate.
by Adam J. Morris on Aug 31, 2008 3:07 PM CDT 0 recs
there was one yesterday that was clearly high
that the tracker showed as a strike.

CC Sabathia might get a retroactive no hitter
The 1 hit in his 1 hit complete game shutout was supposedly highly debatable and is being appealed.

Man if it is over turned and he gets a no hitter how crazy would that be since it was an error on him.

So what happened?
Was Bradley’s double a debatable HR call? If so, isnt’ that the exact thing instant replay was started up for?

no it wasnt
it was just barley over the padded wall, but there is another wall back there you have to clear for a HR

So how many times have the Rangers slid head-first into first base this series?

looks great. if only he pitched like this on a regular basis.

well at least hes done it
3 games in a row. That’s more than we can say about the rest of the staff (minus Feldman, if you take out the Boston massacre)

Am I reading that right? Millwood struck out Sean Rodriguez with 93-mph heat?
When did Millwood start getting back up to 93?

Davis already with two walks?
It seems like he’s really improved his plate discipline this year.

Would you have bunted with Arias right there?

Yes, because it moves Davis over to 2nd
thus eliminating the possiblity of MY hitting into another GIDP. Good move.

True
He is hitting .346. I dunno. I think I still bunt, because with Arias’ speed he could still reach 1st, if it’s a well placed “sac” bunt.
