And S-Rod still isn’t ready for the big time, in my opinion. His range is moderate, though his speed (with leather) is good.

That seriously is the coolest thing ever.

Lezak may have just moved from my favorite in 2008 to the greatest olympic hero ever.

I didn't catch the beginning

I didn’t know he was even in the lineup

by stolenbases on Sep 12, 2008 8:40 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

they didn't say anything

i’m assuming he played half the game just so he could rest a bit

Kotch would've had that.

Kotch would've had that.

Absolutely not

I just hoped he didn’t get hurt or something.

Assuming that hand isn't bothering him...

I didn’t see how he pitched in the top of the 6th; how was it?

i’m half paying attention, to be honest

Kotch would've had that.

Vladdy's right knee is hurting a bit

hopefully it’s nothing serious

Checking in from across the pond tonight/this a.m.

In the midst of all its cricket/futbol coverage last night, the BBC World Sport report showed the highlight of Frankie getting his 57th save. I doubt most of their audience understood it, but it was still pretty cool to see!

Ha, they didn't even care about it on our local "Sports leader"

They even debated today whether it was a “big deal”.

Asinine!

I'm "stuck" in Paris tonight (actually, it's 6 a.m. here)

There was a fire in the Chunnel, so my train back to London was cancelled yesterday. I’m flying back to LA this afternoon, but I’ve had to jump through so many hoops to rearrange my flight out of DeGaulle (I have to go through Bahstin now. Ugh.), I’m getting pretty fed up.

Still, there are worse places to be forced to spend an extra night….
