Oh well | Author: Carlos

In tonight’s St. Louis Cardinals - Washington Nationals’ game, P Jeff Suppan walked along a groundball that was running just barely in foul terrain, and failed to pick it up to complete the foul ball call; the hitter in turn, Jose Guillen, never stopped running and suddenly, as Guillen passed first base, the ball came back into fair ground; 1B Albert Pujols couldn’t complete the play, and the runner was called safe. Suppan couldn’t believe what he was seeing.

The result? Nationals win 4-1. It’s amazing how lack of fundamental skills gave space to a Nationals offensive that scored three runs in the same inning.
