at the plate is about as stupid as it gets. I like aggressive baseball, but there is a not so fine line and Jet just leaped across it.

on his reaction time.

I think I'm starting to see the REAL reason why he got thrown out twice by Valpo.

but I saw that play and saw the replay, and Butler wasn't doing anything agressive. He just got picked.

Jet was stupid to be that far off second in that situation and if he does it again he should be shot in the head (or at least talked to).

That play really changed the complexion of the game. We never even threatened after that. It was particulary stupid because we had struggled to even get a guy into scoring position the entire game and then idiot gets thrown out when we finally had a chance to score. If I gave a crap anymore I would be upset. My apathy has reached Sherrillesque proportions.
Why the @$#% are we always the team to break our opponent's losing streaks?
