March 24, 200719 yr QUOTE(Spiff @ Mar 24, 2007 -> 02:27 AM) Post your favorite Juan Uribe moment (not counting when he was conceived/born). I see. Well, for me, and I'm sure many others, it has to be the the catch he made in game 4 of the Series while falling into the stands. So beautiful.

March 24, 200719 yr QUOTE(Spiff @ Mar 24, 2007 -> 02:44 AM) Shades of Derek Jeter But Uribe wasn't bloody after his catch. So it's not as impressive.
March 24, 200719 yr Here to Juan, for staying some what of a decent player so we dont have to see Cintron play everyday...
March 24, 200719 yr I think our introduction to Juan Uribe was pretty sweet, when he went into June sporting a .400 average. Other than that, His dive into the stands in Game 4 is pretty much unbeatable to me, with the final out of the World Series being 1A.

March 24, 200719 yr I like that he looks out of shape, but can still field one of the most difficult positions in baseball. and I like the way that whenever he is up and the bases are loaded he will absolutely kill the ball and miss a homerun by like 5 feet... I distinctly remember this happening at least twice.
March 24, 200719 yr QUOTE(Spiff @ Mar 24, 2007 -> 03:44 AM) Shades of Derek Jeter BETTER than Derek Jeter. Jeter's catch was a joke compared to Juans.
March 24, 200719 yr Every time he pops out to sgort left field and does his bat drop, hand thing like he hit a homerun. That takes balls and probably a lack of eyesight to do that.
March 24, 200719 yr QUOTE(rudylaw @ Mar 24, 2007 -> 10:39 AM) If that was Jeter or AROD it would be considered one of the greatest catches in baseball history. If it were AROD they would have called him a bastard for impeding the fan's view of the game and attacking small children with his forehead.

March 24, 200719 yr Don't forget about the game saving play in the hole against cleveland that led us to hear hawks famous "JOE CREDE!" in extras, also helping catapult the sox into the playoffs......but yeah the final 2 of the WS are better
March 24, 200719 yr That was a great great play, and I think it was Coco running down that line, too.
March 24, 200719 yr I love Uribe and there's nobody else I'd want at shortstop, save for his so-so year last year. Check out the Sunday Sun-Times for an article on him, BTW. Just read it.
March 24, 200719 yr Hey why waste such good liquor. I know: let's pour one of the new $6.50 beers on the concourse in his name.
