IdahoBert Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 So tomorrow’s game with the Giants starts at 10:15 PM for those of you in the eastern time zone. The game thread will be a little lonely tomorrow. Hope Hawaii never gets a team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdahoBert Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door; And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming, And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor; And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor Shall be lifted—nevermore!

Tigermojo Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 It looked like Vilade actually dove too far. Tough play but he choked under pressure. Have to at least block it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't impress as much of a fielder. On almost every fly he catches he has to make a last second lunge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually he doesn't have a whole lot of split among batter ahead, pitcher ahead, neutral count. But that OBP/SLG when the batter is ahead? Boy, that sure seems like a typo, doesn't it?

oblong Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Not defending him but Al Kaline of all people used to say that line drives/hard hit balls hit right at an OF are the hardest plays. You are like an infielder at that point with little time to react. Do you go in, out, left ,right, dive,smother? In his case he made the right call at that point in the game but was just not athletic or skillful enough to make the play. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I suppose BABIP is increasingly higher as the tension mounts, and maybe that "luck" is something to consider as a reason. Or maybe that's a sign that pitches are a little different from leverage to leverage, I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
