Even for people who only played ball through high school, the kind of stuff that they consistenly mess up should be engrained in your head and never happen. Blame Russell if you want (he's turrrible too), but some of these mistakes go beyond the coach's responsibility (unless you're talking about the current players little league/mighty mite's coaches).<br /><br />That being said, 18-23 about a quarter of the way through the season is better than i'd really expected. The bullpen has been great, but the bats & starting pitching has ranged from bad to awful.HomeRunFromBehindTheMeatballshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09153804542539188315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29893900.post-37585069889474975922010-05-21T11:36:52.321-04:002010-05-21T11:36:52.321-04:00Milledge led off with a double.

But he grounded back to the pitcher and Milledge actually did something smart and stayed in a rundown long enough to let Crosby move to 2nd. <br /><br />Then Crosby went on contact and got in a rundown himself on what would have been an infield single for Cutch. <br /><br /><br />The Great Russell probably would have wanted a bunt from Crosby, but I think Varsho forgot to wake him up before the inning.BurressWithButterflywingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12466557816631165674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29893900.post-29966451118725741022010-05-21T11:12:24.080-04:002010-05-21T11:12:24.080-04:00Let's not exaggerate, Iwamura is only 1 for 28...Let's not exaggerate, Iwamura is only 1 for 28 right now, and JR's favorite pinch hitter...

They are still in the major leagues and have been playing baseball their whole lives. How do these guys not know how to run the bases.

I would bet that we are at the bottom of MLB in sac bunts and sac flies. They refuse to play small ball - I can't remember the last time I watched a Pirates pitcher make an honest attempt at squaring a bunt. Why bunt or hit a sac fly when you can take that 1 in 50 chance Iwamura gets a hit.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04593035790909995842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29893900.post-84025041555395772972010-05-21T10:26:45.190-04:002010-05-21T10:26:45.190-04:00What the hell happened in the bottom of the 5th? ...What the hell happened in the bottom of the 5th? I only kept up on the ESPN Gamecast so I couldn't see what actually happened. One out and a runner on second, and they couldn't move him around??? Was it poor coaching, or poor base running? Either way it reads like a couple of little league errors...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
