		<description><![CDATA[I saw this one unfold last night. It took me back to my playing days as well. As a shortstop (where I played till I was 15) I would have had nothing to do with this except watch my catcher, a chubby kid named Mickey, heave the ball to CF, as I stood helplessly till our CF woke up from her power nap, realized she&#039;d been involved in yet ANOTHER pick off/caught stealing attempt by Mickey, who had a crush on her,  had to heave a ball in and then demonstrate why we had a girl (Liz) playing CF: she&#039;d nail the guy going to 3rd easy. Great arm on that chick.  

Escobar actually ran half this sequence with a slightly pulled quad, that&#039;s how poor the Royals D is. Later on Frenchy and his CF would distinguish themselves by letting a pop up drop exactly between them.

Hey, Frenchy was pretty good with the bat last night. He&#039;s essentially sitting on fastballs and letting all else go by. He&#039;s aided and abetted by Blue Jay pitchers who can only throw the FB for a strike. All else bounces past our playing-hurt catcher.]]></description>
