I think Hefner actually has a good game today. warmed up, throws strikes..

unless everything sneaks by Turner at SS anyway.

Turner leading off? Collins might be taking my "Turner At-Bat Drive" too seriously.

A painful inning being forced to listen to a fighter shill for legalizing UFC in New York on the network that has the rights to, and heavily promotes, UFC fighting. That was highly annoying.

Not as annoying as watching Hefner pitching batting practice, though.

Hey. Either him or the recording. Not both at the same time! They couldnt get a kareeokee version of this?

Is Harvey always this soft spoken? Or does he have a pitchin hangover?

And that triple brings Wright into a tie with Mazzilli, eleventh all-time in three-base hits, with 22.

Good job so far by Tejada, but since when do you pinch hit him with runners in scoring position.

Two heroes in this magical inning that shouldn't be unsung:

[list:2n693mb4][*:2n693mb4]Tejada for fouling off all those pitches.[/*:m:2n693mb4]
[*:2n693mb4]Terry for sending him up there.[/*:m:2n693mb4][/list:u:2n693mb4]

I don't feel that Laffey should have been put (or left) in a situation where this could happen. This can't help his confidence. If he had any.

Problem is that he doesn't seem to have the stuff to get LHBs out, and he certainly doesn't have the confidence to come inside on any of them.
He worked Harper & LaRoche away with everything and Harper simply went with the pitch and LaRoche then hammered one that wasn't quite outside enough. But the fact that neither one had to even think about a pitch on the inner-half meant both results were kind of predictable.
And if Laffey can't be counted upon to get LHBs out then ... umm, get well soon Perdo Feliciano.

Watched that entire half-inning with the sound off for just that reason.
Between the UFC promotion (hey, it just happens to be on FOX tonight!!!!) and the constant crawl filled with English Premier League scores (conveniently available on the FOX Soccer Channel and NASCAR (on FOX tomorrow afternoon) it's nice that they're able to squeeze a little baseball in (and as I'm typing comes the Pat Summerall tribute).


Gee, Summerall became good friends with Mantle!?! Couldn't have happened in a bar or two could it?
PS might have been the one guy who could out-drink MM

btw, I also noticed today that Laffey is one of those baby-faced guys who thinks a colorful, flame tattoo all over his upper arm makes him look tougher and more menacing.
Yeah Aaron, it doesn't. He should be sent down just for that reason alone.
