[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] ignorance here, but why didn't the yanks start mussina? [/ QUOTE ] BC Mussina has sucked this yr, Wang's ERA is like two full runs lower at home then on the road, standard belief is that sinker ball pitchers pitch better on 3 days rest, Pettite in game 5 gives the Yankees the best chance to win game 5 if they get that far. Obviously it didn't work out, but it was easily the decision to make. [/ QUOTE ] thanks, I appreciate it lots of results-oriented thinking in here it seems... [/ QUOTE ] results oriented thinking... wang is better at home due to his amounts of groundballs... easy decision to make... being results oriented would be saying it was a bad decision and ya they are running REALLLLLYYYY BAD

[ QUOTE ] I was under the impression that the top hand, the one on the barrel, on a bunt attempt, is just part of the bat. And for damn good reason. [/ QUOTE ] No. There are two situations which a batter hit by a pitch is not awarded first base. 1. The batter makes no attempt to avoid the pitch 2. If, when the batter and pitch make contact, the pitch is in the strike zone. [/ QUOTE ] Too bad they never enforce #1 any more.
