Taking Third
Twice in this game (once for each team) a runner has gone second to third on a grounder to the shortstop. Back in the 1980's, Pete Palmer and John Thorn wrote in the hidden game of baseball that this is a great play. The run potentials are such that even if you don't make it very often, you help your team in the long run. Both Ortiz and Sheffield made the play tonight.
