You sound like
one of the Sports Anchors for the TV station I work at. He says “And the Buckeyes try to keep it going,” every chance he gets.
He’s a jackass, BTW. Not saying you are, or anything, but he certainly is.

I'm impressed with the anti-Z on the mound.
The Cubs haven’t exactly played pristine defense behind him, but he has kept his composure and gotten the next guy out.

What are the Mets announcers saying about Edmund's catch in deep CF
He was playing shallow, but he got to the ball. Do they realize that CFs can run also?

D. Pie
E. RJ
F. Hoff
G. None of the above
(One selection for RHP and one for LHP is acceptable.)

I think it depends
on if the opposing pitcher is a lefty or not.

One of the papers had that, but DeRo said he wasn't worried about it.
Lou said he might play Sat. and/or Sun.

If its Dodgers then Fukudome against Derek Lowe

Fukodome, no matter who the opposing pitcher is.
My theory is, put your best defense on the field and do everything you can to stop the other team from scoring.
