Oh please, spare me the pleas from moral superiority. If you were practicing what you preach, you wouldn't have made such a big deal about it anyhow.
I'm sorry that my conversation was distracting you from all the Heisey bashing, Dusty second-guessing and complaints about the lack of Reds' clutch hitting. I'm sure that was real fascinating conversation I was depriving you of.
It's also amusing that you yourself chimed in on the Votto topic in this very thread. But here you are making yourself the arbiter of when someone has to stop talking about it. So again, if you'd be so kind, spare me the condescending orders.

Love the play Ruggiano made on the last fly ball. Just a guy who is smart and understands the game. It did not work and probably only works 1 out of 100 but still. He has no chance to get the guy at home and instead fires a dart to first hoping the runner is thinking the game is over and doesn't get back to first. I think if it would have worked out perfect his throw would have beat Choo to the plate and the inning would have been over.
To bad his teammate playing first was not as smart and was in the dugout already.

It probably depends on the location of where you catch the ball. Since the ball would have to beat the runner in order to wipe out the run, it's a smart play if you're shaded toward left center. If you have to go straight back or toward the line, I still think you're better off trying to throw out the guy at home.

Since there are no teams on the moon, I guess South Korea's far enough from Cincinnati to satisfy me.
