I shouldn't say this. When I saw it was Adam and there would be a play I assumed the throw was going to be there. Just assumed. ;) It's all about what happens at the plate.

AJ has had a tendency to airmail his throws. I was bracing for him to tweak his shoulder and send wide right.

Same play as us sending Rickard on Eaton. This one was even more of a bang bang play. If Adam's throw is 12 inches off he is probably safe. Next batter's chances of a base hit are still <50% so it is a good send and better play by the O's in my opinion.

I disagree only because Mike Wright was obviously struggling and they gave up an extra AB against him by testing Jones. It's a bad send from my perspective. The Orioles were up 3-1 when they sent Rickard in an inning

where the defense enabled those runs to score. The Sox were down one and had the bases loaded against a struggling pitcher. Bad send for Chicago.

Wieters is much better then Joseph on the catch and tag.

Not much better. The other night when he totally gacked the play. CJ had another chance a couple innings later. He caught it a little to the 1B side and swiped farther than Matt just did. Made it incrediblt close at the plate. Runner literally got his toe in ahead. That was in Texas?

Can you DH Bonds?

I had a friend in college who played his own version of fantasy baseball on sheets of yellow legal paper. I was shifting through them one day and noticed that Bonds was hitting .800. When I asked him how that could be, he said that he had figured out the random number generator on his calculator and cheated.
