I am stuck at LAX. How is babe Ruth doing through 2 AB's?


first AB = he struck out on 3 low and away pitches, hearkening my soriano flashbacks.

second AB = he got down 0-2, then sat there and watched shields nearly get him out a cpl times to get to 3-2, then he struck out on a low and away slider, further hearkening my soriano flashbacks.

Nonsense. I'm not blaming the ump. Or saying he's got something against this team.
Saying he's been awful. Which he has.

it's perhaps the most inherently cub feeling ever that they're winning but it still feels like they're losing.

NESN pimps out its "sideline reporters" with disturbing regularity.

He's been striking out on change ups. Soriano and Sosa were gotten with sliders.

He doesn't have a swing anything like those two guys though. He's more Manny-ish with his swing


Anyway it's nice that he's playing third like Mike Schmidt
