Lollygagger!

When I was in the fifth grade, I was playing first base and the pitcher mis-handled a throw from the catcher and the runner from third base tried to score and I threw him out because I was just that awesome.

↵This afternoon, Jhoulys Chacin and the Colorado Rockies weren’t nearly so awesome (w/VIDEO).

↵(The Braves needed the help; otherwise they would have stranded ten runners in the first four innings, rather than nine.)

↵And yes, we have seen this before: even more dramatically, in Francisco Rodriguez’s 2005 “sulk-off” loss.
