Manny!

[weams]

Did he the last time he was up?

I thought so.

[scOtt]

Man oh Mannyschevitz!

[weams]

Popped up to left last night.

Thank you. Rep.

[eddie83]

That was an Oakland type hit there.

[LA2]

You mean yesterday? I forget. I know he was called out on a strikeout on a three two pitch six inches outside the zone. I will have to check.

It looked that way to me too but the box showed it was a strike.

[scOtt]

Oakland fans must hate their starter always giving back runs...

[LA2]

Man oh Mannyschevitz!

A new line of Kosher salsa?

[eddie83]

Side note, anybody see that ball Harper fouled off his leg? Looked serious to me.

Nice job Manny! Thanks for the RBI Parra, but what the heck was that baserunning? haha

:laughlol:

Bad base running by Parra, they had no shot at Manny and the ball was going to be cut off. Still love the 4 runs that inning though!

[weams]

He didn't do it much in 2013 either.

He had been out of baseball for two years pretty much at that point. The delay in getting Hank a visa surely cost him dearly.

Yeah, he didn't have to give himself up if that was what he was thinking. Ball was slow moving to Fuld.

[LA2]

Parra beginning to redeem DD's go-for-it, I hope.

Was that a sacrifice extra-base-attempt? Wd Manny have been caught otherwise?
