He kept giving Joe Buck hints and opportunities to bring it up, and Buck never did (maybe he doesn't know about it). Pretty funny.

BTW, is there any foundation to McCarver's statement about the decision not to send Sheffield from second on I-Rod's single: "You send him with no outs, you send him with 2 outs, but you don't send him with 1 out." Huh?

Kenny Albert was doing the game, not Buck. I like Albert so much more. He's not an arrogant ass and he always seems to give extra information on the players. McCarver mentioned that he'll be with Moose Johnston and Tony Siragusa on the NFL telecasts. That's the #2 team. I guess Dick Stockton has been demoted? Good, he's one of the worst play by play guys in any sport. Constantly butchering the names of guys and just acting all old and senile.

As to McCarver's statement, I think he said you DON'T send him with 0 outs or 1 out but you DO with 2 outs, which would actually make sense. I actually don't hate McCarver quite as much as everyone else. At least every once and a while he'll say something that makes me think, "Hmmm, that's interesting, didn't think of that" which is more than I can say for most baseball analysts.

That's what McCarver said.

2) I know its not possible, but if ESPN did one of their website polls across the nation about Tim McCarver, what do you guys think is approval rating would be?

this is funny, and probably belongs in the red sox thread, though i'm not sure it will be taken in good humor.

Got out of that 4th inning jam. Thankfully that rat-fink-looking-tool Inge whiffed on that curve!

edit: good lord I personally cannot stand when Damon starts... Melky is better in every way

Are they really pitching around Sheffield there to put the go-ahead run on 1st with Ordonez coming up? Take your chances with Shef, minimize the damage. If you give up the tying run so what.
