Don't matter...the BoSox went down again. You're gonna need a new second baseman though, Mick. Too bad.

Omar Infante is a player.
And Pudge..., well, at least he's a gamer. [Looked like he had a new glove ... that belonged to someone else. ]

Yeah, I forget who it was. Tigers on 1st and 3rd, nobody out. Ground ball hit to Lowell at third. R3 stutter steps, gets a slow start, then decides to head home. (Maybe thinking Lowell was going to 2nd for the double play?)

Anyway, Lowell boxes it around for second, gathers the ball and still has time to throw out the runner at the plate. I don't think the runner was loafing; I think it was indecision.

Rodriguez (there was only one "Pudge" -- my man Fisk) makes his first professional appearance at second base last night. I don't think he even got a chance to make a play.

Pudge(Detroit/Texas) ain't pudge anymore. He's lost about 30# since steroid testing came in. That's just a coincidence though.

He did have one play last night at 2B though iirc....a pop fly.

Yup, you're right. I forgot that one. It was a good play too. He had to go into the outfield, back behind first base. Nice play.

Well, if anybody can blow a five run lead in a hurry, Sidney F***ing Ponson can.

...whose career is highlighted by being the answer to a WS trivia question. And will be forever tied to one of my dormmates smashing his beer glass against the wall not too long afterwards. [After he emptied it of course]
