Oh look he’s getting squeezed.
Wow this ump wants us to lose.
Pitch 1 and 4 were center of the zone
Man, you see Milton look into the stands after the catch.
This guy is fun to watch.
I don't really give a crap how he does.
But if we win I want him getting some credit, since clearly it’s his clubhouse presence.

I'm not too displeased with him overall.
Walked twice, worked counts, stole second base but the umpire didn’t agree. Overall did fine.
He did, however, whiff twice on fastballs just over the hands… something to watch for indeed…

Wak has said that a lot of the players have the green light at all times.

Oh boy are we going to see a lot of Figgins steals this year.
I think that’s his favorite part of the game.
Just didn't make sense to me
I’m too drunk to do the math, but the odds of him being safe at 3rd on a SB didn’t seem to outweigh the odds of him scoring from 2nd anyway with 0 out.
