Video: Final Play of the Game

Traditionally, what is considered a dramatic finish to a game is an offense induced walk off play. If it is a homerun, there is supposedly no other more fan craze inducing play, plus the players get to wait at home and pound the crap out of the teammate who hits said walk-off homerun.

Ausmus “…we have to get back to fastball/curveball. We talked about it on the mound, in the middle of the game, and he actually pitched better after we talked about it. We have to get back to it.”

Wandy’s Rehab Start Solid, Cassel Continues Good Work, Salem & Lex Have Rough Nights, VSL Season Underway.

Posted on May 23, 2008 by Duman in From the Bus Stop

Corpus Christi had the big story for the second night in a row. Houston sent Wandy Rodriguez down to pitch a rehab start and he pitched well. He went 6 innings giving up one run on 4 hits. One of those hits was a solo homer. He walked one batter and didn’t strike out any. He threw 78 pitches during his outing. Chris Johnson continued his good work at the plate going 3 for 4 but his struggles in the field continued with his 17th error of the year.Read More
