Man, it's rather damning of Paredes' defense that he's the DH and Delmon Young is in RF.

Granted one was a late afternoon game but four out of the last five have been day games.
Everyone's talking, few of them know
The rest are pretending, they put on a show
And if there's a message I guess this is it
Truth isn't easy, the easy part's shit

Nice to see Keuchel get the lead runner there. A lot of pitchers would have gone to first.

Carter!

B1:

Machado with a leadoff walk
Paredes with a chopper back to the mound, Keuchel goes to 2B for the 1-4 on Machado, but can't get two ad Paredes reaches on a FC
Jones with a liner to 1B, nice diving stab by Carter, gets up to double off Paredes.

No score after one.

He's 0 for his last 11 and 1 for his last 16.  It's not just lefties that are giving him trouble.

Tucker grounds out 4-3
Rasmus, pinch hitting for Villar...works the count full, and strikes out looking

The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

Hey Hap, I've been meaning to ask you, do you know Roger Cador? You must have crossed paths at some point I would think. Do you know him?

I knew him a little bit back in the day. Nice guy. Excellent coach.
