    Morton also had a plate appearance in Game 7 of the World Series. Unlike McCullers, he was asked by manager A.J. Hinch to stand as far back in the batter’s box as he could and not to swing, a request to which he deadpanned, “But if I don’t swing, I’m going to strike out.” (“I told you so,” Morton quipped to Hinch after Alex Wood got him on three pitches to lead off the ninth inning.)

    I can imagine Hinch's thinking was... this situation will prove if Giles can truly be a closer this year. Obviously he proved he still can't do it in the biggest pressure situations. I don't fault Hinch tonight. He had to find out if Giles had turned the corner. He hasn't. 

    What was last night?

  3. Yeah, Fiers was alright while here.  Not as good as advertised but he was a contributor.  There was a reason he was left off the postseason rosters.  I didn't like the trade at the time and still don't.

    The guy reached over the fence and interfered?

    It looked like to me at the time that the ball hit on top of Piscotty's closed glove. It would not have been a catch.

    And why was his glove closed?  Maybe because when reaching up it hit the guys hands, maybe?

  5. Whither the dilly bar?

    DQ sponsored my tball team 30 years ago.  We had red caps with a white DQ logo.  That location somehow lost its affiliation about 15 years ago.  It stayed open as an independent DQ knockoff for another couple of years and then closed up.

    I've had a few mango blizzards from an ice cream only DQ kiosk inside a mall in Thailand while working over there.
