Worst incident I ever had involved hitting some iron spike thing in the dark at a dead run. The height of the thing was just above crotch level and it very unhappily passed between my legs. I took two more staggering steps and then face planted into the grass. God Almighty did that ever hurt. I had to be carried away, and my junk hurt for days after that. And I damn sure wasn't running at 102 mph. [Reply]

"I think the case was when he got hit, he tore a ligament or something like that and they had to go in because of the pressure. They did a drainage on him to release the pressure. Too bad (it wasn't) in a different area. For a man, it's a very difficult area." [Reply]

Fowler didn’t take 2B. That’s something l taught little leaguers. That causes a double play. Maybe he’s too busy yucking it up over there with Rizzo. [Reply]

thats the 2nd time l remember this season Martinez grounding into DP’s on a 3-0 count.
And that’s 2 DP’s in 2 innings.
Why isn’t Kelly playing? He spent a whole year and this years spring training with these pitchers. He knows the scouting reports. The pitchers likes and dislikes in situations. He didn’t play last night. And was already on his way to St.Louis before the game. Had all day to get acclimated. [Reply]

I’m just gonna assume it’s Matheny giving Pena some respect. I expect Kelly to take over soon. [Reply]

Since when does Pena deserve “respect”? He’s on this roster only because he was willing to sit on the bench and only start a game a month. He’s hitting below the Mendoza line. [Reply]
