did Greg Smith own us earlier this season?

Or am I thinking of someone else? Let’s just take this game and another series.

Huston Street on the Trop...

“I never thought it was bad before, but I’d still like to get a pad on the bench down in the bullpen,” Street said. “We look across the field and see their bullpen; they’ve got a nice pad. So I’m still campaigning for that. But I guess that’s part of their home-field advantage.”

good fielder

better hitter than he’s shown this year (career .323 OBP)

by Sky Kalkman on Jul 23, 2008 1:02 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

his biggest focus is now fielding

but i don’t think he’s thrown away OBP. it’s just that others have caught on.

by Sky Kalkman on Jul 23, 2008 1:01 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Through 2

Smith 22 pitches, 15 strikes
Shields 24 pitches 17 strikes

Shields shouldn’t have thrown those two extra strikes.

Did you guys know that Greg Smith is throwing a no-hitter. Hell, a perfect game that that?

Anyone? Just thought I would drop some knowledge.
