I'm rooting for the AL . . .

But I wouldn’t even pay much attention to the game if Figgy weren’t there, so I think I can’t help but select the Figgy/Fuentes option. Maddon already said he plans to use Figgins late in the game in a situation where his versatility comes in handy.

Found the answer.......

1908
The last man to win the Presidency with facial hair was William Howard Taft, Roosevelt’s chosen successor as the Republican candidate in the 1908 election, whose moustache was rather more resplendent than Roosevelt’s. His Democratic opponent, William Jennings Bryan, was cleanshaven, and was also hoping to make it third time lucky, having already lost to McKinley in 1896 and 1900. He lost again.

Should have Been Started Haren. Manuel

Hes clearly been the best pitcher in the majors right now. He is barley behind in strikeouts and .32 ahead in Era.

Mention the Longoria thing

No mention of Figgins getting in for him. I’d act surprised, but I can’t.

At lunch, I was watching ESPN

their crawler at the bottom of the screen said something to the effect, “Longoria injured, replaced at 3B by Michael Young”

"Eye-popping defense by Michael Young."

How many million times have we seen Figgins do the same thing?

~Till the Halo burns out...

by Zu Long on Jul 14, 2009 6:08 PM PDT reply actions  

He'll show up Michael Young (albeit without recognition) like this:

Pujols rips it deep, it’s going back… and… FIGGINS MAKES THE PLAY IN THE LEFT FIELD! STANDS! He runs all the way from third, climbs over and grabs the ball! Very decent, and mediocre!

Anyone remember...

was it Juan Encarnacion that was hit in the face by a foul ball in the on deck circle at Busch Stadium?

One of the worst injuries I’ve ever seen. I think it ended his career…

Unfortunately they have terrible chemsitry.

I remember playing and Vasgersian saying that a certain slider that K’ed me was a lucky call while Hudler said “nice pitch!”

When ever you played with the Angels vs the Yankess.
