Spring Trainer Opener vs Mets

[Who's On 1st]

Poor base running once again!!!! Jones took off and stopped then Scott got caught 2 outs.

[YardBirds13]

Jones and Scott get crossed up on the bases. Jones stopped halfway, Scott kept going, and the Mets get Scott heading back to first.

But Oscar comes through and delivers an RBI single, Jonesy scores, it's now 3-2.

However, Oscar gets greedy and is caught in between first and second, and he is tagged out.

Wow. Two base running mistakes, but the Birds get a run.

Mets 3, Orioles 2 after 3.

[Slappy]

Ugh, our baserunning hasn't improved yet. Play baseball the right way?

[PaulFolk]

Salazar drives in Jones with a single, but Oscar too gets caught in a rundown and tagged out. Two outs on the bases that inning.

3-2 Mets after 3 innings.

Twenty bucks JTrea starts a thread tonight saying how poor our baserunning is gonna be this year, and how somehow Justin Smoak would have helped.

Oh well...better to get this stuff out of the way in spring training rather than the regular season.

What I want to know is how they got SCOTT out when it sounded like they had Jonesy in a rundown first! Was Luke freaking watching or what?

[YardBirds13]

David Pauley is in.

Here is a guy I would love to see have a nice outing.

Yet?

Its the third inning in the first spring training game of the season.

[PaulFolk]

David Pauley is in.

Here is a guy I would love to see have a nice outing.

Especially after the lackluster performances by Hennessey and Waters.

Of course Smoak would have helped: he'd just continuously clear the bases for us, therefore fixing our baserunning problems.

[DrLev]

Just checking in. Was Hennessey as bad as his line implies?

[tywright]

Pauley gives up liner to Evans

We are talking about PRACTICE here!

[YardBirds13]

Now making fun of their producer for jumping out of the way of a foul ball.

Joe: Did you see the FEAR in his eyes?
