QUOTE(Damen @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 03:04 AM) All great points. Brian Anderson's walk was by far the best at-bat I've seen out of him all year long. He still got himself behind in the count, but then he shortened his swing, fought off a few decent pitches and worked himself a walk. At this point, that's serious progress. Pods has surprised me with his baserunning ability. I figured his hitting would come around, but he's actually stolen three bases in a row without getting caught. I don't think he's done that since July of last year. But still, I don't want him to force it. His presence on base is often enough of a distraction to the pitcher, let our 2-4 bring him home, especially while they are hot. Garland was good, although he was helped out by a poor hitting Royals club. If he pitched that same game against Cleveland, he wouldn't have left in the seventh allowing only one run. But still, it was a strong step in the right direction. All in all, another solid game, against a team that we need to nab as many victories from as possible, because everyone else in our division will. I shudder to see that we all praise this kid for doing the simplest of things...whenever he gets to the plate its a countdown to K...soon people will be bringing K signs to the cell for Brian anderson, not the pitchers. He got on base (ONCE) against kansas city. 2 in two games...and how many k's did he also have? At least get the ball in play...we might as well just say he's out before he even gets to the plate.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Apr 18, 2006 -> 06:41 PM) Evidence collection is very difficult with a rape case. The first thing they teach you in the police adademy is to isolate and contain the crime scene. However with a persons body that is almost impossible. The first thing that a lot of rape victims do is to shower. Which is the worst thing from an evidencial standpoint. DNA evidence has been around for a while. But even back in the late 70s investigators were collecting rape kits known as Vitulo Kits. Its basically collects pubic combings, dried blood, scrapings from underneath the fingernails of the victim. The pubic hairs were used to match the accused. Its not as foolproof as DNA but its pretty selective. Blood was typed and matched. Other things you need to look at also, does the accused have any wounds that could of been inflicted by the victim. Do they have any scratches or defense wounds. Plus description of the attacker, clothing they were wearing, any details. Most rapes happen amongst people they know, its not the stranger rape that everyone sees on TV. These are all things that help with the evidence gathering. Now in this case a few things are fishy. They have obtained some genetic material obviously or they wouldnt have performed a DNA exam on the players. When a rape victim is interviewed one of the questions have you had intercourse in the last 72 hours. The reason for this is to collect genetic samples and pubic pullings from all those who could match for DNA. You eliminate DNA samples that do not apply. However this is not the case here. They have drawn material and it hasnt matched. This is a huge item that the defense will use to get these guys off. Beyond a resonable doubt is the criteria. The DA is pushing this only because of the political issues at hand. If this was cook county and the DNA testing came back negative for genetic material found in the rape kit then you drop the case. Its not like they didnt get the right genetic drops from these guys, she positively identified them. So if the genetic material doesnt match them, then where did it come from. this was a great post...thanks man

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Apr 18, 2006 -> 05:25 AM) Name me somebody that has better pure all around stuff than Count other than Burnett. Burnett and Count may not be the 2 best pitchers in baseball, but in terms of raw stuff, they are top 2. It's just so great to see him using all of his pitches and making people look horrible. this post brings the LOLs
