I know he's not very popular...
but I actually like him…would anyone agree if I compared him to John Madden?

I like Morgan, too.
We’re definitely the minority here, though.

M's announcers just said he was safe.
I was looking away from the screen, so I didn’t see it, but if the M’s guys said so, they must really believe it.

That was a great piece of hitting by Barton
Kendall-good, but still – I prefer to delude myself into thinking it was more Wade Boggs good.

Yep, he had to play it safe.
If he had run hard and then it did go foul, then he sure would have been in trouble.

Dunno about that. If it's borderline you have to be running.
Problem is, running on Ichiro.
