Harry Chappas Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Whie watching the replay last night, I happened to see the slide Pablo had into third on the Uribe bunt. I thought at first it was Uribe but it had to be Pablo. It looked like a nice hard with a little intent to it, I liked it. The little Rodriguez fellow almost lost a leg. It was clean. I like Pablo Ozuna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenkait Sox Fan Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 The Sox players should all take examples from Ozuna & Blum and continue to play hard on all plays. A lesson that Uribe and Dye could learn from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even on a routine grounder to second, he is always hustling down the line trying to beat it out.

retro1983hat Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Paulie and Dye have been dogging it on a few plays lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 I wasn't comparing this to other players I just liked that Crain seemed to be looking to drill Crede and maybe this pissed off some guys off. The same seemd to be happening to Rowand. Silvia has great control yet he almost drilled Rowand twice (got him the second time). It looked like Pablo was trying to make a GOOD CLEAN point that's all.

WSoxMatt Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 If yuo watched that replay closely, Rodriguez never hit third, he was bailing away from Pablo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the People's Champ Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Speaking of slides, that slide by Blum was a work of art. How he pulled that one off is beyond me. I noticed that guys are adding a lot more finesse to there slides this year. Aaron has done them, Pods has done some. Ive seen more of those kind of slides this year than in years past. Do you think that this has to do with the umps sticking with the play longer instead of the old "well the ball beat him there so he's out" type of mentality? whatever it is I like it.

CanOfCorn Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Blum made Rodriguez look like an idiot with that slide. He had nothing to argue about and neither did the guy taking over for Gardenhire. It was a thing of beauty and very hard to pull that leg back while sliding. But it was a fantastic phantom swipe tag!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
