    phew burke. 1st pitch was a ball and you bunt it, that looked like strike 2 and you hold off. it was low but this ump has been inconsistent.

    La Russa is pissed (I'll be Edmonds, Eckstein, and Sanders are too). This is totally sweet.


    Took the sac off!?!? WTF?!?

    Maybe they all thought it was 0-2... after all, that ball certainly should have been a strike.


    In any case, that's BAD baseball.

    excellent strategy. now gimpy lance can ground into an easy GIDP instead of just getting a nice trot down to first on an IBB.

    Garner has made a couple of questionable decisions today.

    Well, since we're manaing with our "gut"... lets green light Lance here.

    EDIT: Marquis just bailed out Garner big-time. Not sure what TLR is arguing about.
