Yep, lucky.

He looked safe to me and others, and it could have easily been called that way. Bad decision by GG 1b that worked out for him.

Did Phillips just swing 3-0 and hit a weak pop-up? That's the problem with batting him cleanup. He actually thinks he's a cleanup hitter.

Hit it to the warning track. I'd hardly call it a weak pop up.

Wasn't a weak pop up. Pretty well hit to right field. Not well enough, though.

Uh, we're playing in a bandbox and the wind is blowing out. Can of corn = Weak pop up in my book.

Opposite field.

The point is that swinging 3-0 there is not smart.

What's up with Bruce? What happened to that player from the first week of the season?

Clearly Votto, Phillips, and Bruce are not old enough to gets hits against Zito.

IMO, played in some bigger parks and got back in the habit of trying to pull everything.
