4/29 Halos @ O's

Following on-line. Was that a busted hit and run?

Looked like it to me, Markakis didn't have much of a lead and Scott whiffed on the pitch.

If you're referring to Nick stealing there, I don't think that's a bad play. Getting caught sucks, but the odds of us scoring increase by enough with Nick going from 1st to 2nd that its worth the risk of him being thrown out while trying to do so. If we had guys behind Scott who were hitting at all, I might think it wasn't worth the risk. But we don't, so it definitely was worth the chance, IMO.

I'll pray it was. Yes it was. Mathis threw a pea though.

And Markakis looked back. I would think hit-run.

Luke Scott is very Adam Dunn like in his inability to be a consistent run producer.

I don't know why they'd be putting that kind of play on with Scott at the plate. He's not a great contact guy. Even if Markakis made it, you're taking the hole away on the right side. I know you want to stay out of the DP but a swing and miss pitcher with a swing and miss hitter up there. Not good.

I was thinking the same thing when Markakis got thrown out. What a waste.

Again, it's the little things that kill us in games with the Angels.

[Rex Thunder]

How about this for a scenario...

Moeller hits a HR to tie it up in the bottom of the 9th...

then- in extra innings- goes for the cycle with a game winning rbi single?

Plausible???

[Skeletor]

If you take Izturis out of the equation, we're 7 for 15 in stolen bases. These guys need the red light.

[payray10]

You probably want your "closer" throwing harder than 86.

wow.. every time a guy fails.... lol, incredible

[nevadaO]

Nice defensive play by Montanez in LF there to keep Rivera at 2nd.

[TheHustler]

Anyone wanna look up our CS% so far.

It's been one of my more consistent criticisms really.. not just based on this game.
