I guess he figured the odds of that happening two days in a row (in the exact same inning) were very very unlikely. Seriously... just look at the odds! This is a game where if the batter FAILS 70% of the time he comes up to bat for his career, he can potentially be a hall of famer. That being said... I was highly nervous about that situation.
Yes indeed. I know we're all bummed about Morgan not being in the lineup... but Lamb has hardly been a bad replacement. He's had a couple dingers, some big hits (especially in Philly), a big game yesterday... I don't know if you could ask for much else from Morgan over the last week (maybe 1 more HR). "That being said" (I'm saying that a lot today)... I hope Ensberg gets better ASAP.
ANother hit for our NEW CENTER FIELDER! GIBSON BABY! GIBSON!!!! 5-1 Good Guys!!! EDIT: 6-1 GOOD GUYS!!!!
