    You could have bet Matress Mack money on JV giving up a first inning run(s) today.

    One run here isn't bad.

    Just keep it one.

    Ah, interesting. I'm overseas so no idea who they've been sourcing the feed from, and have had different feeds throughout the postseason. Anyone is better than Buck/Smoltz.

    I'm not going to debate the overall effectiveness of the shift

    But for crying out loud, if you are gonna leave a gigantic hole up one side .... then perhaps dont give the hitter a pitch that they can more easily take that direction ?
