Let's see. If I induce a two out pop up to short RCF, I can count on my RF waiting for my CF to put in max effort, who will however, miss the catch. My RF, will allow the ball to get past him by just a few steps, whereby the runner at 1st, who will take off with pitch, will round 3rd as my RF, throws the ball to the cutoff man at 2b, who seems to not understand English, or nobody tells him to throw home, so when he finally realizes that the runner isn't breaking stride, throws too late to the plate.

Our pitching staff probably all have daily appointments with Greinke's shrink.

Ugh.

DeezNutz 05-19-2009 07:12 PM

Wow. 2 in a row is embarrassing.

BAS 05-19-2009 07:13 PM

Are they just going to bunt all night? What the hell?

VonneMarie 05-19-2009 07:13 PM

I hate Cleveland, even the one in Family Guy to.

If you could count on laying down perfect bunts like that on a whim, sure. Not likely

DeezNutz 05-19-2009 07:15 PM

Olivo mad because his pride was hurt, I believe.

Mr. Krab 05-19-2009 07:15 PM

Olivo just got punked. Maybe our guys will actually show some spine now.

Blankey 05-19-2009 07:15 PM

Olivo... get low buddy

DeezNutz 05-19-2009 07:15 PM

Olivo should have lowered the boom on that sumbitch.

BigMeatballDave 05-19-2009 07:16 PM

Why were they booing? The catcher is blocking the plate, Its the runners job to try to knock the ball loose.

I'll sum it up by paraphrasing Bob Davis' radio call:

“Line down the right field line, it is…FAIR! Let’s see if he can get to second, the throw is gonna be close….and he is….out by a wide margin.

Callaspo ran the bases as poorly as Bob Davis follows the game.
