Soto started and lost the 83 game played in Comiskey Park

Bench was also on the roster and went 0 for 1 as a pinch hitter

there are two ryan brauns

So it doesn’t autolink him. Same thing happens with Alex Gonzalez.

Lawyers

Most of us have good intentions in deciding to practice law. We don’t find out until later that the other lawyers we have to deal with all day long are criminals with the same degree we have. Seriously, they feel like being licensed to pratice law gives them the license to lie and cheat. And judges are the biggest culprits, IMO. It really wears on you.

Caveat: I practice in an extremely contentious jurisdiction and in civil (as opposed to criminal)
matters.

I was going to elaborate more, but I really don’t want to be in the office for longer than I have to.

I don't get that

Braun got one for an amazing throw. The catcher didn’t handle it so error on Braun?

by ol Pete on Jul 14, 2009 9:29 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Didn't see the Braun error

But I think the reason Hamilton got one was that the runner was in the way. That always seems to result in an error on the OFer.

One of Bubba’s two errors came on a play like that. He caught the ball in deep right center, and threw it to 3B. It was an amazing throw. Perfect, really. Except Big Papi was sliding into third. A-Rod shied away (understandably) and the ball got past him. Error on Bubba.

The Yankees announcers thought it was a terrific throw, and didn’t think it should have been an error. But IME, it usually is.

I still think they need to go with my proposal.

Why not allow managers to substitute position players in and out at will? Sure, that’s not the rule during the season, but regular games have no pressure to get everyone in, either.

Is there some practical reason behind it

like Wakefield’s starting in two days? I wouldn’t think so, since he’s the #4 or something..

In the early days of the device they were made of straw, sheepskin and granite... I've seen pictures of the one Babe Ruth used and while it's a step up from the devices that Ben Franklin and, say, Billy the Kid used it's still positively barbaric. And the gromits, if you can call them that, were made of corn husks. -Judge Montgomery Davies

Oh, that's right

I guess rest doesn’t really matter for him. No catcher explanation makes sense, but I guess Maddon also wants ironically to win home field advantage for the BoSox.
