Going On Contact

Willie Randolph, after the game:

“With the third baseman playing off third base, we thought we’d go ‘contact’ there. The worst thing that could happen happened.”



Wow. Really Willie? REALLY?!?!

Beltran, after the game:

“I’m going on contact; that’s the sign we got. As soon as he hit that ball, I just broke in. That’s what happens when you go on contact. You’re going to have a chance to get doubled up.”

Um, yes Carlos, that is what would happen and happened.

Seriously, what the hell is going on here? How did the media not fire back at Willie when he responded in this manner with a "Wait, are you being freakin serious?" Or a "Hey Willie, did you miss the day in Little League where they teach the base running rules?"

ONE OUT, DOWN A RUN, 9TH INNING, MAN ON 3RD BASE. YOU DON'T LEAVE THE FREAKIN BAG UNTIL THE BALL HITS THE GROUND!!

If freakin Willie wanted to send him "on contact" because the 3rd baseman was "playing off 3rd base" into the shift. BUNT THE BALL AND SUICIDE SQUEEZE HIM!!

I know this is the easy way out and doesn't change what the players do, but it's time to say it...WILLIE MUST GO

swell thought out my friend. I am however dissapointed with your lack of succession plan. It is easy to get on willie but not so easy to find the right guy to come in ad pull the team together. Is it big Jerry? How about Hojo or The Kid? Play GM for a min and give me the plan captain.
