Pickoff Moves
McCourt Canes Perez
... behind closed doors, of course, but the outspoken starter no doubt is getting schooled in such locutions as "we want to take it one game at a time" and the usual Bull Durham-ish bromides.Bradley, Valentin To Begin Rehab
In that same Times story above, Milton Bradley and Jose Valentin are expected to -- or are not expected to, maybe -- start a rehab assignment in Las Vegas.Kelly Wunsch Surgery
Kelly Wunsch's season-ending surgery is due Wednesday, but word is the ligaments are not torn. He'll be back in five months, just in time for Thanksgiving.Rangers Take Damage On A's Near-Perfect Game
Rich Harden of the A's threw a perfect game for seven and two thirds innings, before Alfonso Soriano got a single off him. Aside from what that says about the A's staff, the Rangers had two bad things come of it:The Rangers also had two casualties in the game. Reliever Ron Mahay had to leave the game in the sixth because of a bleeding cut on his left finger and, in the same inning, Laynce Nix injured his left shoulder making a diving catch on Jason Kendall's line drive.Nix, who missed almost a month last season with an injured right shoulder, was being examined late Thursday night and the Rangers aren't sure of the extent of the injury.
Just Like Bad Old Times
Remember when every time the Giants came to town, the Dodgers would roll over like a retarded, slobbering Lab for Barry Bonds by giving up some career milestone number, like 500 stolen bases, or some ungodly home run stats? Last night's win was the franchise's 10,000th. Hope you enjoyed it, kids; the Las Vegas 51's won't be here to kick around indefinitely, which makes the news that Bonds still isn't sure whether he'll play this year that much sweeter.
Comments:
I was watching Baseball Tonight in the hopes they would cover the perfecto live. They did, and the first batter they showed singled. Then immediately (and I mean immediately - the ball had barely hit the ground) they switched to live coverage of Palmero going for his 3,000th hit. It’s almost as if they had planned it that way!
