Typical game for Will: Two nice hits, then he got overaggressive and swung at the first pitch, grounding to short. He also took his eye off a grounder, preparing to start a double play…and dropped it.
Two interesting plays: the centerfielder forced a runner at second, and the rightfielder threw out a runner at first. Both were tailor-made one-hop line drives to the outfield.
A teammate made three nice defensive plays in one inning. What made it funny was he was playing second and tagged out a base-stealer for the first out, on a lightning-quick tag. Then he switched to first and caught the throw from the rightfielder for the out, then made a line catch of a line drive for the last out.
Parker’s dad said Friday was homecoming at Lassiter. Parker’s brother, the crazy/popular/mascot Spencer, was on the court. The parents had to go out on the field with the court. Fredi Gonzalez’s son was also on the court, so everyone was shaking Fredi’s hand.
Great Braves blog currently on AJC.com details what the Braves off-season issues will be. Many “fans” won’t read the blog, and will complain about not signing Carl Crawford, etc. Long, but good. http://blogs.ajc.com/atlanta-braves-blog/
It’s only a matter of time before the Phils/Yanks are in the Series. I’d love to see the Giants and Rangers advance. Fox wouldn't.
