Uribe is one of those players you just know will become a Met at the end of his career.

The best part is that Uribe was a DEFENSIVE substitution for... yes, you guessed it...

It's a pretty cruel statistical oddity that pitchers lose a perfect game to a play that has nothing to do with them. But defense takes away, and defense giveth.

You know what, I saw the replay earlier this morning and it a was on off-the-chest (or belly) hop which bounced far enough away to where Uribe couldn't recover. All of which reminds me of when Lenn Sakata replaced Brooks Robinson at 3rd in Bal'mer. Even Brooks Robinson used to refer to himself as Mr. Bad Body and remarked that the problem the small-ish but more carved gymnast-type body that Sakata had made those hops ricochet all over the place where in Brooks's case they'd just fall at his feet for easy pick up. Maybe Sandoval could have done the same thing last night.

I don't even know what team it was, just caught this on Web Gems. Bases loaded, right fielder catches a hard line drive on a short hop, and immediately throws a one hop bullet home to get the runner from 3rd on a force out. Runner had to hold up to see if it would be caught, probably got screwed by the "always tag up from third on a fly ball" rule of thumb. I have never seen that before, very cool.

Oh, and fuck the Phils. (And a secondary "FU" to Matt Capps, for suddenly discovering the giving spirit.)
