Wow. CJ overcame great adversity getting out of that **** by getting Tejada to ground out.
Best NL Managerial move by an AL Mgr: Wash p/h for Feldman leading off the 5th and putting in Mendoza for 3 rock-solid innings.
Worst NL Managerial move by an NL Mgr: Cooper having baserunner running off 1st when Ausmus has 3-2 count - easy DP.
Best two first pitches of a game: Kinsler triple; Vasquez deep sac fly. Ends up being difference in game.
Best symmetry situation: After Houston gets 2-out single by Oswalt and 2-run HR by Bourn, Rangers counter with 2-out single by Cattalanotto and 2-run HR by Ramirez. Game, set, match though I wouldn't have given you a nickle that those one run lead would stand up.
Last night CJ did a great job. He didn't go all samurai out there. He didn't have ridiculous body language either when he didn't get Bourne out and when Vasquez made the error. He went right after Miggy Tejada and was awesomeness. That's the CJ I like. I don't like Tom Cruise CJ.
