Hunter at it again…
We had a thread a couple of weeks ago about a terrible base running decision by Torii Hunter. In it, several people stated that Hunter was known to make bonehead base running errors. I had always assumed that he was a “heady” player, although I am not sure why.
I was just watching tonight’s BAL/ALA game. With 1 out, someone hit a routine, but fairly deep fly ball to LF with Hunter on second. He tried to tag (with 2 outs) and was thrown out at third by a country mile. Nary a word from the announcers.
And the Angels are known for their great base running, right, and that’s one of the reasons why they always outperform their pre-season w/l projections?
