    Doesn't hurt to be cautious.

    Taveras attempts to make a diving catch on the warning track the ball pops out and Pujols scores. That did not look like a ball he should have had to dive on. Most center fielders make that play.

    Taveras should be getting an error on that. Pitiful, just pitiful.

    They haven't invented profanity appropriate enough for what I just saw.

    Fisher looking good. Got 4 outs that inning.

    I think if that play in center was somebody else, they would've been cut at least a LITTLE slack. It was NOT an easy play. He came down hard and the ball unfortunately got jarred loose. But hey, it's Taveras so it's obviously a play that "everybody" could make.

    It was a nice effort, just an unfortunate result.

    Pujols nearly got Carpenter hurt on that Dickerson infield single.

    Pujols strike zone seems to be smaller then the other players.

    Can't fault Carlos too much. Balls 1 and 2 were both borderline....and you are not going to get those calls on AP. Homer had him struck out in the 1st....umps aren't going to tick Albert off.

    Fisher pitched around Pujols for three pitches. Why didn't he just walk him? Grooved one to him with the obvious result. Intelligence is not something that can be taught.
