No argument from me here, and I thougt that was a classy move on Klesko's part to help him up.
[qyite]Second, I don't see how you get "double play ball to short," as Khalil Greene had to full-on lay out deep in the hole to field the ball, and barely got a sliding Ryan Klesko at 2nd base for the one out. A double play ball is a one or two hopper that is easily turned well before the pivot man gets crashed. [/quote]
You know, you're right. For some reason I was remembering the play as being more routine than that. Sorry.

Klesko was really just making sure that Gillie didn't turn the DP, even though he wouldn't have gotten the BR anyway.

Well that's what I wasn't sure about. I figured that Giles didn't have a play after Klesko slid into the bag but I was curious about your take on it since you had seen the game. Thank you.
