That was a heck of a play by Mez.

They are a good combo, and I'm with you on the latter point as well. I love Thom's voice but it does get old to hear him constantly beating players down for doing anything wrong. He makes us here seem like easy-going fans who never criticize anything, LOL.

True...but for things like this, I point to the coaches. It's up to them to make those guys stay in the cage and ACTUALLY work on it instead of just giving it that one half-hearted attempt during normal BP.

FS Ohio has been shoddy for me for quite some time now. It seems like almost every night the sound isn't in synch with the picture, and there's a good amount of digital noise in the picture too. Still better than standard definition, but frustrating.

Yeah, that's my take on Thom too. He has a good voice but he's basically Marty Junior in terms of having his favorites and whipping boys.

Leake didn't want to leave a fat one out over the plate to Rizzo. Soriano is going to hit into a DP or K.

No, that's the manager. Dusty's not the guy who would do the bunting technique and such with the players. And you don't have to get in a guys' face to point out that you need to work on this or that. Just point out the results and they'll get the message pretty quickly.
