Actually, that's not true.
Most of us are quite willing to admit when we’re wrong, it’s just that the few who won’t are among the loudest voices.
I’m more than ready to admit I was wrong about Edmonds, but it’s going to take a lot more than two nice games against the lowly Rockies to get to that point.

The thing is
Apparently he went back to his old, successful batting stance before the game on Friday. He changed his stance in new Busch and at Petco, and it didn’t work for him, obviously. Whatever it is, hope it continues!

Yeah, Brenly said he eliminated
the stride from his stance and went back to the old stance he used, like you said, in STL. Looks like it’s working for him thus far!

This would all be different if the Cubs had Hart, Petrick, and Ascanio instead of Eyre, Wuertz and Cotts

of using his glove to shield the sun always makes me nervous. I’m not sure if he sees it and I find myself getting a little tense. But so far, it seems to work for him.
