rferry Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 According to Roxy and Dave, Cabrera never stopped running and scored easily in the 3rd. No stubbling around the bases. No stopping prematurely into third. No jogging it the entire way. Sure, he missed Cox's sign, but it's nice to see the kid show the effort. Way to go Miggy! :arms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuickGold Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 If you're gonna flagrantly ignore a sign like Miggy did, he sure as hell better score. I think he may have also felt hosed about that play at the plate on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flag Man Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Cox stinks. We've been saying that for two years. (Ever since we lost Ozzie.) I'm glad Cabs "didn't see" the stop sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlinsChik305 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Haha. Good thing he "didnt see" it. I see that Cabs had better sense than Cox on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad Cabs "didn't see" the stop sign. 750234[/snapback] Have to agree with Chin on this. On top of that, Cabs made it easy into home plate. Is not like it was a close play at the plate. Cox continues to be lost on 3rd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rferry Posted April 21, 2005 Author Share Posted April 21, 2005 To be fair, Ozzie ran the team into a lot of outs at home too. He ranked up there with Waving Wendell Kim in encouraging aggressive baserunning. We choose not to remember that because Guillen was part of the championship team.

SHUfishfan Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Cox stinks.? We've been saying that for two years. (Ever since we lost Ozzie.)

Cox continues to be lost on 3rd 750271[/snapback] I have to agree with both of you. Cox is a horrible 3rd base coach. He cost us some games last year with his decisions.

Beinfest4Prez Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I don't think any of you realize that Carlos Beltran if he didn't somersault, would've had Cabs out by a mile. And any of you who don't think Beltran has a strong arm, then I guess you don't watch very much baseball. In fact, the play was a lot closer then it should've been considering how Beltran threw it, but if that bounces after the mound, Cabs is out by a mile.

I should've edited that out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stag5 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Running through a stop fine should equal a fine. It has nothing to do with being safe or out, it has to do with following the rules. I wonder how many of you when you run a business and give your workers orders will be as happy when they disobey your orders...no matter the results. Its the first time it happened and he said he didn't see the stop sign....so be it. But it better not happen again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
