I saw that replay. I'm not sure I can entirely blame Casey, since he thought the ball was caught by the 3rd baseman. Kudos to the Sox left fielder for hustling and getting the ball in to 1st. I don't think I even remember seeing that in LL either. Now, I've seen a right fielder throw out a runner at 1st, but not a left fielder. Or even a Prince Fielder.

I hope that's only something that gets shown on the year-end championship highlights, and not the start of the slide...

JR,
Geez, was Casey embarrassed !
...And well deserved.
Looked like Casy being Manny ....

If it hadn't been for the fans cheering the drop, Casey might still be standing with his back to the play.

From what I understand about Casey's character though, he'll probably be sincerely apologizing for weeks.

A 5 1/2 game lead can disappear in a big hurry, Mick. That true for the Yankees too. There's a whole lot of beisbol left. Not too many pennants are won in August.

Around September 15th. is when everyone should start watching the standings seriously.

Just enjoying the moment, JR.

Thanks for the September 15th tip.
I wouldn't have known that.
