    Nothing bothers me more than stupid, aggressive baserunning. We just gave away the pressure and the momentum and the chance for a big inning. It's the third inning. Why are we taking bad risks to get one run?

    Looked like a hit and run and Gavin threw a pitch JJ couldn't hit down and away.

    Not even. Probably 2 feet would have done it there.

    I hate hit-and-runs more than straight steals. You will not deflect my wrath.

    A good question would be "Why call a hit-n-run with a player at the plate who's struggling"....except for the HRs of course.

    Aided by the fact that he seems to get a lot of the borderline ball/strike calls. Not sure why, but it seems like he's gotten the benefit of the doubt in this series.
