[obvious]The only thing more tenuous than a 2-run lead is a one-run lead. [/obvious]

A three-run lead is much better.

Boone needs to be playing more.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #133:** May 04, 2008, 02:39:06 PM »

Mack should have been on 2nd easily.. damnit. You have to run out of the box

KnorrForYourMoney · « **Reply #134:** May 04, 2008, 02:39:14 PM »

MACKOWIAK, YOU freakING PIECE OF crap

Sorry, I just can't stand when a STRUGGLING player doesn't run out a ball like that. Moron. I hope he gets sent down tomorrow.

Mackowiak with a lucky break.

ronnynat · « **Reply #136:** May 04, 2008, 02:40:02 PM »

This is the situation I wanted last time. Come on, Felipe!

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #137:** May 04, 2008, 02:40:15 PM »

Good bunt this time, Tim. Come on Felip

nyexpofan · « **Reply #138:** May 04, 2008, 02:40:21 PM »

this time Redding moved the pitcher to the first base side ..good bunt

If I was a player trying to earn a starting job by playing well when given the chance, I certainly wouldn't have half-assed it out of the box.

That average won't stay low for long if he gets more starts. He's just not a very good pinch hitter.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #141:** May 04, 2008, 02:41:20 PM »

Stop hitting the ball in the air, Felipe!

ronnynat · « **Reply #142:** May 04, 2008, 02:42:06 PM »

Most of the homers have gone to that same spot where Boone just hit it, right?

2k6nats · « **Reply #143:** May 04, 2008, 02:42:09 PM »

3-0 NATS after four...

No, no, no, I didn't mean that negatively. Just stating that he probably got lucky on that one.

A lot have gone into the right field bullpen area.

An inordinate number of them have, actually. That red porch must be keeping the wind from blowing in and keeping the balls in the park.

ronnynat · « **Reply #147:** May 04, 2008, 02:44:10 PM »

Complete game shutout would be nice.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #148:** May 04, 2008, 02:44:17 PM »

lmao.. Dukes got ejected in Columbus today

Just got here. Three things I notice looking back at the thread and Gameday's past innings.
1. Redding is friggin' killing. The wild pitch letting a guy over to second is the only mistake he's made so far.
2. Mackowiak 2 for 2!
3. Dude, Aaron Boone totally redeemed himself for that first-inning double play with a great homer.
