I watched the game Sunday night, and I was also annoyed by "Timmy's" constantly harping on Rowand's alleged base-running error. From his vantage point behind home plate, it was obvious that the left fielder was not going to catch the ball; but from first base, I am sure that the ball looked like it would be caught. It was a moot point anyway because he scored, regardless of whether he was on second or third base. "Timmy" is also amazed at the fact that Mike Lamb bats right and throws left, and he can't recall any recent baseball greats that do the same. I believe he mentioned somebody from the late 1800's or early 1900's! Have you ever heard of Ricky Henderson, dumbass?! Now I know why Deion Sanders kept dumping water on him after the Braves won the World Series. He was trying to wake him up to the world of reality! --Previous Message-- : He harped and harped on Rowland Sunday night. : Grrrrr.... what a dick. : : The odd thing is that Fox must feel like the : guy does his job, and I'm wondering if there : is research that supports it.
