To prove that he can at the Major League level. Burriss won't be up for long, regardless, but I'm in favor of trying to show off his skills.

In most games, yes, try to get Fontenot on base somehow and give Huff a chance to tie up the game, but later Boch had Darren Ford pinch hit. He wants to see what he has there. Why not with Burriss?

Edit: I thought you guys were asking about my Burriss steal second comment earlier in the game. I have no idea why Fontenot just took second. Maybe because he knew he could.

Nate needs a hit here, or he's back to the bench.

Fonty did that with fielders' indifference. But he did it to break up the potential DP.

You know who Nate reminds me of at the plate? ..... a slumping Barry Bonds... ground balls to the right side, and popups to the left.

How about a BB?

 

[gp956]

Be a hero Rossy boy

 

[tzill]

Sure, but MIGGY'S ON DECK!!!

 

[gp956]

How about a BB?

I think that works too.

 

[gp956]

Nothing inside to Ross

 

[calsnowskier]

PH for Miggy?

Miggy can quash the Reyes talk with one swing here.

 

[tzill]

I'm not sure if I want to watch the AB, or run to the bathroom to take a Tejada.....

 

[calsnowskier]

We have Posey and Burrell on the bench to hit and Rohly to play 3B, why not ph???

 

[Heathbar012]

Oh, Miggy. Let's see what you got. I really hope this game doesn't go into extra innings.

 

[gp956]

TeeHee-da's gonna have to dig one out of the ground here.

 

[tzill]

Is it wrong to root for a HBP?

 

[msgkings322]

PH for Miggy?

You really can't crush the guy like that (but maybe the right move)

Bochy's deference to vets.

 

[tzill]

Oh, Miggy....

 

[Heathbar012]

Hahahaha. Can't say I didn't see that one coming.
