Message: [QUOTE="kris1, post: 2738110, member: 1840"] Wallace is what he is. A kid with a live arm, who at times can’t command the strike zone. You absolutely can’t walk the first batter of the inning there, but (to me) the inning changed on Susi’s passed ball. Washington had runners on first and second, one out. Double play is still in order. Susi got lazy (as he has many times this season) and didn’t slide over to block the ball. It’s just lazy. That certainly doesn’t guarantee Wallace would roll a double play ball, but it certainly changes his approach on the mound. He has to be around the plate, he’s afraid to bury one given Susi’s struggles, and Washington’s hitters can sit on the fastball middle/in. Not what you want to see from your team leader at this stage of the season. Inexcusable... [/QUOTE]
