Perlozzo: why didn't you send Ichiro?
Apologies if this was covered elsewhere, but why in the world did Perlazzo hold Ichiro at third base on Sunday? It was 2 outs in the bottom of the 8th, Ichiro represents a KEY insurance run, and he's off on contact when Lopez doubled into the corner. I'm watching on TV, and see the ball hit off two walls, and then the RF has a tiny bit of trouble picking it up. With Ichiro flying from first, I thought there was 100% chance he'd score on the play, but he's held up at 3rd....
Did anyone who went to the game see why he was held?
After all the "aggressive baserunning" talk this year, this sure seems like the defining situation where you should be aggressive, yet he's held up.
What is Perlazzo thinking?
[Edit: It's Eddie Rodriguez who's coaching third now, since Perlazzo's surgery]

Is Perlazzo back from his knee surgery yet?
I like midgets more than I should.

Not sure an old man can walk off a knee surgery in 2 months

I can't remember who replaced him,
but I’m pretty sure that’s who’s coaching third right now.

We don't need to battle for Jose Lopez
only embrace the awesomeness that is his empty batting average. And 4th in the AL 53 hits.

Okay, it's Eddie Rodriguez
Sorry, I don’t tend to watch the injury reports on coaches (grin).
by BrianF on May 19, 2008 5:25 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
I was at the game
and all I saw was disappointment and dishonor that Ichiro was held up. Like Ichiro said a few weeks back, the play needs to be made at home plate.
here i am and here i go

Actually, per user profiles,
BrianB has been here since Mar 22, 07 and BrianF has been here since Apr 23, 05
Thus you are the last Brian. But the most active one. WAR!!!!

Oh god dammit.
I can’t believe I have to resort to a post-count to try and assert my superiority.

Good to hear
Love your description, it’s exactly what I imagined… Given the situation, it seems crazy beyond belief he was held up.

With three of us...

We'll just use the LL beer fund to buy you guys some zords
and the Fans of Jose Lopez support you as well. As long as the new GM doesn’t get rid of Loafie. Then there must be another, much bloodier, coup.
