This doesn't seem like a bunting kind of night, what with this thimble sized zone.

I didn't see it,

but I wonder if Theriot’s arm helped with that capability…

I didn't mean it as bashing, actually

No doubt he saved a run or two, but I wonder if a stronger arm would have had Manny.

Fair enough

Though I didn’t see it, either, so we’re hardly the two most knowledgeable people about this. ;)

That was a great stop by Theriot!

That kept at least one run off the board for the trolley dodgers.
