baseman factor solid winning
I like being in control. You feel like you've been a solid factor in winning over, say, a first baseman or a right fielder. That's why I like it a lot. It's such an important role.

ball drag guy hit paid park shift takes thank
Usually if you have a shift on, they're paid to hit, not paid to bunt. That's a guy that can hit the ball out of the park with any pitch. With Giambi, if he takes a drag bunt, thank you for the single.
hate single
What do you think? We hate it every single day.
