March 6, 200323 yr Yes, ST means very little, and I will never think otherwise, but... Today, the Sox take on the Brewers. The reason that is of interest to me is that Royce Clayton, as you all probably know, is now their SS. That brings a scenario to mind... Let's say Frank is on first, and a grounder is hit to 1st base. Clayton goes to cover 2nd for a DP attempt, but all of a sudden, he sees Frank (6'5, 275, and probably a size 16) coming right at him. Does Frank revert to his days at Auburn and "forget to slide", and tackle the 190 pound (soaking wet) Clayton? Or does Frank sharpen his spikes before the game (in memory of baseball great Ty Cobb) and test their effectiveness on Royce's shin? Or, does MB (today's scheduled pitcher) "lose control" of a 4 seamer and hit Royce in the noggin? Maybe Damaso has a slider "slip"? Most likely nothing will happen - but nothing's impossible.
March 6, 200323 yr MB has nothing against RC to my knowledge. But FT coming in with spikes up aimed at RC's groin... now if I were RC, that would concern me!
March 6, 200323 yr Of course the "what-if" scenarios are only plausible when talking about Klayton on the defensive side of the ball. MB is not a headhunter and we all know Klayton doesn't see 1B until the second half of the season.
March 6, 200323 yr He may get 3 hits, ALL ST You can put it on the boooaaarrrd..... YYYYYEEEEESSSSS!!!!!
March 6, 200323 yr Author Dunno how many people are curious about today's game since apparently it's not on radio anywhere, but it's the top of the 5th and it's tied up at 2. I think Buehrle was supposed to be starting today, so I can only assume he did alright. Although, it's MB, so what else would we expect?
March 6, 200323 yr At last check it was 4-2 sox. It's killing me not knowing what's going on, who's in the lineup and who is doing what.
March 6, 200323 yr Innings...1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8..9 Chi Sox...1..0..1..0..2..0..0 Brewers..0..2..0..0..0..0..0
