Open Thread: Game 83 - A's at Boston (cont)
by baseballgirl on Jul 8, 2009 6:01 PM PDT
545 comments
Cahiil was excellent through 5, but things fell apart quickly in the sixth. Thanks to 2 homeruns, Boston has taken the lead after the A's failed to add to their lone run. 4-1 Boston; going to the seventh.

The only bit of good news for me today
My broken rib from the accident 5 days ago has virtually no pain whatsoever in it
My shoulder still clicks and kinda wants to go out of joint but I have twice to movement in it without pain which isn’t saying much because I can only hold my arm (elbow) away from the shoulder at like a 45 degree angle.
The bad news is I have a bill for $2053 and another couple coming and in hindsight, I should have not gone to the emergency room and just sucked it up and hoped like hell nothing was too bad.
The moral of this story is do not ride a bicycle at less than like 2 miles an hour when your cell phone is ringing unless you come to a stop before answering it.
OK, U Pricks, U better score.

That's when the error is on the first out of a would-be DP
You can rule an error on a 6-4-3 if the 1B drops the throw.

But you also can't assume it on the throw
That is, if the 2B throws it 5 feet wide of 1B and the 1B comes off to get the throw, they never give an error.
But that makes sense about the 1B dropping it, and Green missing the bag in this case.

Not criticizing this particular move, but just interesting
that with 2nd/3rd nobody out, and 2nd/3rd one out, down 4-3 in the 7th, Geren played the infield back, while in New York, 2nd/3rd nobody out, 0-0 in the 2nd inning, he brought the infield in (which I thought was unbelievably stupid).

don't see
how the manager keeps his job, there is NO WAY Cabrera doesn’t steal second because Papelbon, as good as he is, is slower to the plate than my grandma is when we play 2-on-2 basketball.
At some point there has to be some sort of realism setting in, that this team is bad and worse for the manager’s inefficacy, and something has to change or else it just isn’t serious, and we should all be embarrassed by that fact.

I'm with y'all --
if you have to weigh the odds of Cabrera successfully stealing second and Suzuki singling against Suzuki getting an XBH against a no-doubles defense or both Suzuki and Cust getting hits, you go for the SB.
And I cannot believe Hairston’s ball was caught. Looked gone off the bat and like it would at least be off the wall — even the weather hates the A’s.

Cust
I love him, love his story, think he is probably a nice and humble human being and is definitely a likable player whom I want to succeed, but he probably shouldn’t have tried such a radical shift in his 2-strike approach over last winter without at least consulting the team, or someone other than his dad at ballcamp there.
What has happened is he failed to anticipate the adjustments that have clearly been made to his grand adjustment, and it doesn’t look so good… if hitting’s a puzzle I’d say that he looks kind of solved, as it were.

the thing with Cust seems to be
That you get excellent pitch recognition out of the pitcher’s hand, but that because of the tenuousness of the swing and how violent it often is mechanically, the results just don’t bear out the potential somehow.
The winter work he did to shorten up w/ two strikes was great for a while, until the league adjusted as the coaching staffs around are paid to do. It looks to me like he is in a downward spiral because now guys have his ass with 2 strikes because they know he isn’t gonna swing for the BART station anymore, so they can load up like Paps did there deep in a count and not worry about getting taken out like before (pre-2009 Cust).
