Bizarre.

Lesson(s) learned.
Basketball is driven by three principles:

1) Movement 2) Application of fundamentals 3) Predictability

So stupid. You can bend the rules. It's not as if Mattingly walked all the way to the dugout or even the chalk and then came back. He was talking to his f'ing infielder.

Bochy is an idiot.

'Cost LAD the game' is pushing it don't you think? Broxton had loaded the bases already, and Torres hits far better against RHP than LHP.

I'm with Stanford on this one, pretty much because I know nothing about baseball and his pokemon sig is the least annoying.

Stanford does make a good point but there are two sides to every story.
