Batting Leadoff, Jack Benny
Alfonso Soriano is one stolen base away from becoming a 40-40 player (that's home runs and stolen bases). Unfortunately, he seems to be stuck on 39. For the third game in a row, Alfonso attempted to get number 40, but was thrown out. He's gone from a good 75% success rate to a little over break even at 70.9%. Maybe the pressure's too much for him. :-)
