  2. Can't believe SF fans are cheering Cueto being injured. Idiots.
  3. For the Cards, Wainwright is tired and will need full rest (preferably extra rest) for any starts he makes in the playoffs. Lynn has been hot. Garcia is really good at home and bad on the road. Carpenter is close but not quite himself yet. Lohse is solid. The series with the Nationals has Sunday and Monday in St. Louis, and Wed, Thurs, Fri in Washington. The rotation will depend on if Matheny wants to use Garcia in game 2 (home game) or leave him out of the series all together. He could go: Sunday - Wainwright Monday - Garcia (6 days rest) Wednesday - Carpenter (7 days rest) Thursday - Lohse (5 days rest) Friday - Wainwright (regular rest) If he wants to skip Garcia, it will probably be: Sunday - Wainwright Monday - Carpenter (5 days rest) Wednesday - Lohse (regular rest) Thursday - Lynn Friday - Wainwright (regular rest)
  4. I can see why the ump called the infield fly and probably technically it was the correct call. The best argument to be made from the Braves perspective is this . . . if the play happened the same way but the ump didn't call it an infield fly, would Matheny have gone out to argue it should have been an infield fly? No, he wouldn't have.
  5. It's common for sports to share fields, including baseball fields. But if you can afford a turf football field, you can afford to fill in and roll the infield. The last time my son played there he took a grounder in the throat and another three hopper bounced over his head. If my son played infield for Beechwood I'd be concerned for his safety.
  6. Hopefully he negotiated some improvements to Beechwood's field. It's awful.
  7. Nice. My favorite band. And I've never heard one of their songs on the radio.
  8. Thanks for the info on Cameron. He's got the tools to be a hell of a baseball player but it's not his first love obviously. Don't go to too much trouble to get more info. I'm just surprised I haven't heard rumors yet, since info like pro/college interest seems to spread like wildfire. I know other kids asked my son about recruiting visits and what was being spread around about him was only about half true.
  9. Thanks for the answer but I was most curious about the Conner players mentioned previously. (Though, I have to admit I didn't expect to see a local kid being recruited for baseball by Baylor. ) I'd like to know which professional baseball teams have contacted Cameron Fogle. He didn't play summer ball as far as I know. And I'd like to know which schools are interested in Maines and Padgett. I know this past spring that a Transy coach informed Arlinghaus of interest in Fogle and Maines.
  10. Which colleges are recruiting these players for baseball? Or perhaps I should say which schools are showing interest?
  11. He would have taken State. You guys should read this: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/writers/albert_chen/05/07/dylan.bundy.trevor.bauer.long.toss/index.html
  12. Clyde I'm astounded at how few people know even basic rules. Obviously it doesn't matter if the ball bounced first. You can hit a ball that bounces. And you can be HBP on a ball that bounces. Reminds me of a game a couple nights ago when I observed an argument about the hand being part of the bat on a HBP vs. foul ball.
  13. I've never met Coach Baioni (I hope I'm spelling that right) but would like to compliment him on his work on the field. In addition to that, after my son's team was eliminated by Highlands Monday night, Coach Baoini took the time to talk briefly with my son and congratulate him on his high school career...then gave him a game ball. That was a very classy thing to do and it meant a lot to my son (and to me). So count me as a fan. I will be rooting for Highlands to move on to State.
  14. Yes, Jared Williams. He's the younger brother of Senior 1B Jake Williams.
  15. Thank you for asking. Conner's first baseman is Jake Williams. When he slid into the fence, he hit the metal pole and tore a large gash in his right shin. It was 9cm by 2.5 cm. He received numerous internal stitches and 13 staples to close it up. And of course he'll be out for an undetermined amount of time. If anyone has an update on Brady Reese please post that as we are also obviously concerned about his health. Thanks.
  16. This was the first Colonels game I've seen. You've obviously been there a few times. I didn't see or hear a lot of coaching going on. Would you view that as normal? They just let the boys go out there and play?
