Re: Open Gameday Thread, 5/27
Pedro's weekend:

1.    Late in the game on Friday giants up 1, I believe. Man on 1st  2 outs. 2 strike count and the third baseman loafs over and lazily misses a pop foul up the 3rd base line. Batter hits next ball up the line for double to score run, ties game, giants lose.
2.    Yesterday giants up 1-0. 2 on 0 out and bunt up the 3rd base line with slow runner headed to 2nd, morris makes ok throw to third in plenty of time but 3rd baseman misses the toss. Runner scored and giants lose.
3.    Today, tie game 1-1. Barry leads off with a single, steals 2nd, advances to 3rd on grounder to right side. Next up, the third baseman who with a man on 3rd and 1 out demonstrates terrific patience by lunging at the first pitch to pop it to right field. Giants lose.

That would be cool, but Villalona is at least 2 years, and more likely 3-4 years, away from making the team.  And really, even if you assume he will make the majors at all, it could take longer than that.

If Pedro is still around then, we will all have committed ritual suicide and won't be able to enjoy it.
