    I'd also like to see him get that average up. I'd be okay with 260+

    Loved the way McCann called yesterday's game....and
    how about that ninth inning, catching that last foul tip.
    Great win last night. Let's keep it going.

    Come on Bump......let's do something to get runs in.

    Bump, you pooped.

    How could Gardner stand there with his bat on his shoulder?......
    and one out!.....with runner on third base!
    Is Drew's disease catching? lol

    Not a team at bat, get the guy in instead of relying on the next guy.
