CF did not come up throwing! Did he not know the situation of it possibly being a SF?

Greinke, Kershaw and Ryu in the next 3. It would be nice for this offense to hang around...

Regardless....Choo does it every single time on that play and he missed at least 1......but the anger by Welsh was silly...he even snapped at George. Lol
Yes the perils are real, making it not a cinch to pull off, but nevertheless I am a big supporter of the slide for safety and and being able to make the play with minimal risk of injury. Also it is a great way to start reversing your momentum like the SS on the play in the hole, on a run away from the infield to pick up the ball and get it back in, and I saw just this week a runner rounding first thinking about going to 2nd, but putting on the brakes by sliding and getting back to 1B quickly.

If I were a coach, I think I'd have a drill where there would be a runner on first, the ball laying ~40' behind 2nd base, a defender on 2B, and blow a whistle to start the action and see if the defender could throw out the runner at 2nd on a tag play by a 3rd player. It would them out giving good practice on sliding into 2nd, tagging, and executing the slide play to quickly get the ball back in, and throwing to a tag play.

Leake couldn't pull another miracle on that ball that Izturis was able to save the run on.

Gregor Blanco is definitely in the Adam Dunn, Alfonso Soriano and Johnny Damon slept with Chris Welsh's wife club.

I'd bet S&L has a much tougher time hitting the 8:58 AM than you will the evening time slot.

Leake escapes the 5th! The high FB that K'd Crawford was key.

Leake can pitch another but a couple bullpen guys might need an inning.

I'm good either way. Personally I'd send him back out.
