Nothing wrong with the out. Just LaHair looked pretty awkward making the play.

That's because he's a DH masquerading as a position player.

That is really harsh. He has been fine as a 1B, but it is plays like that you can see he is far from a good defensive player. Bad throw by Soto.

That was a generous strike call.

Nice that McCann lines it directly to LaHair so he barely had to move :D

Speaking of which, nice grab by LaHair on a ball hit hard right at him.

Dempster's throwing too many balls and leaving them up. Three line drives already (one for an out).

That's one odd-looking Ryan Dempster bobblehead. :lol:

Dempster really needs to be sharper, but it is nice to see a pitcher getting some breaks his way with at'em balls. LaHair's plate discipline is so awesome.

Remember when bats were exploding every other day? Did they thicken the handle or something? It seems like a rarity now, and offense is down.
