I'm not sure, but it looks like it might have. It's times like this when I wish these games were on a sports station that knew how to pull up the best replay and show it in slow-motion, rather than TBS.

He was out. aminahyaquin: Alou is a 37 year old 7 time MVP with a .347 lifetime batting average and a world of hustle. he can golden glove field in his sleep. tGG: Alou is actually 42, has never won an MVP, has a .303 lifetime batting average, and is mediocre at best in the field. joshv02: But, other than that, you're wrong.

I'm also a moron. Agreed that he was out. Damn it was close though - Casilla's hand looked like it was less than a foot from the plate when he got tagged.

What a difference a couple inches makes. aminahyaquin: Alou is a 37 year old 7 time MVP with a .347 lifetime batting average and a world of hustle. he can golden glove field in his sleep. tGG: Alou is actually 42, has never won an MVP, has a .303 lifetime batting average, and is mediocre at best in the field. joshv02: But, other than that, you're wrong.

Posts: 540 10/06/09 9:54 PM Forum Moderator	When talking to reporters about the announcement that Jose Molina will be catching Burnett, Posada said, "I just hope we win that game. That's all I've got to say." Sarcastically second-guessing your manager and insulting your teammate (Molina) at the same time. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs/2009/news/story?id=4537038

Veteran Member Posts: 1568 10/06/09 10:58 PM Veteran Member	In fairness to Posada, he's completely right: Posada: .285/.363/.522 Molina: .217/.292/.268 Yes, I realize that Molina is far better defensively. I don't think there's enough catcher defense in the universe to close that gap. (He's slugging .268! Two-sixty-eight!)

Veteran Member Posts: 1496 10/06/09 11:02 PM Veteran Member	I believe that Molina is catching because Posada and Burnett have had problems with pitch selection. The Yankees have enough offense without Posada; however, they are probably more concerned about Burnett's mental state of mind which is why they are starting Molina.
