Interesting that both teams are wearing dark alternate uniforms. Tatis is known for his grand slams. FYI, it sounds like Delgado will be going on the DL.
After today, it's on the road to face the three best home teams in baseball this year. Giants, Dodgers, and Red Sox. Niese against 2-3-4 today: Yunel Escobar: Foul, Ball, Ball, Ball, Escobar walked. Chipper Jones: Ball, Jones doubled to center, Escobar scored. Garret Anderson: Strike swinging, Foul, Ball, Anderson singled to center, Jones scored. Yunel Escobar: Ball, Ball, Ball, Escobar walked. Chipper Jones: Strike swinging, Ball, Ball, Jones doubled to center, Escobar to third. Garret Anderson: Foul, Strike looking, Anderson singled to left, Escobar scored, Jones to third. Yunel Escobar: Escobar grounded out to second, Infante to third. Chipper Jones: Ball, Ball, Jones hit sacrifice fly to right, Infante scored. Garret Anderson: Anderson doubled to left. ===== What's odd is that the 1st and 3rd were almost identical. Walk, double, single.
Are they kidding? "Tough play"? That was a pathetic error for Wright. If Castillo is actually standing on the base Escobar is probably out, so that was a bad play also. Edit: he was out anyway. Bad call.
what's even more annoying is that even if he booted the ball by charging it that run doesn't score, he had to do that stupid hop and let it go right through his legs.
Reyes with the moronic baserunning blunder followed by once again not sliding. To quote the immortal Casey - can't anyone here play this game?
he was out by a mile but it did look like escobar ghosted the tag. you're not going to get that call too often when the ball beats the runner by that much though.
OT: I hate that KGB commercial. One, the service is a rip-off, and two, if you're a baseball fan and don't know who played first for the Sox in 1986, you're an idiot.
