"This is an environment of welcoming, and you should just get the hell outta here." --Michael Scott
thats why players like Escobar will drive you crazy.
Especially if your Bobby Cox. They will screw up the routine play all the time but than make the miraculous play in a huge spot. Sound like Ronny cedeno anyone?

Fonzi is looking sharp drew.
Ron is talking about how he has changed his balance. Plus fonzi is taking that low and away pitch he normally flails at. that is normally a good sing. He lined out his first at bat hard. than doubled in his second to left center
