He can’t hit. He can’t frame. He can’t field. He clearly can’t bunt. Pitching has taken a major step back. But ******* Maldy has the best intangibles
I know they don't cater to the hardcore sports fans these days, but I don't tune into a game on ESPN to listen about who dressed David Cone.
During the first national game on Fox, the broadcasters were totally enamored with him and all over his D. The pitcher would locate a perfect fastball and their excited response would be ‘look at how Maldy caught that pitch. Amazing!’ Made me want to throw up. HAHA. The disconnect between the national media’s view of Maldy and Dusty vs how the fans feel is nuts. It makes me think it’s secretly part of the punishment for the cheating scandal.
Tough read? Did he think the left fielder was playing shallow in the gap? That’s a hit 100% of the time.
