Wait a minute, I'm not suggesting he TRY to throw a ball... All I am saying is that he would be a fool to pitch him straight up in that situation. He's got to try to hit the corners as best he can, which you are right, he didn't. But damn, you saw Giambi crush Beckett last night, so did I. Last thing you want is 4 runs on the scoreboard. I'll take my chances with the corners...
