I'm not giving up an out that early in the game to *advance* a runner - not score a runner, *advance* a runner - because the next guy up's BA against the pitcher is less than .1 better. I'm not giving up that out.  It wasn't the go ahead run moving to 3B.

That's taking small ball to the extreme. That tells your hitter you don't have confidence in him.


I don't have confidence in Zimmerman against Hudson.  The five GIDP have made me that way.
