Triple The Anger
At batting practice for tonight's game a few hours ago, Jose Valdez was still steaming about his 385-foot fly ball off the wall that went in the official scorebook as an error on Orange County center fielder Pat Breen, who had appeared to be comfortably positioned under the high, drifting pop-up before it came down directly next to him off the wall.
"I asked (Breen) if he touched it and he said he didn't," Valdez said before Tuesday's game. "How is that an error?"
Even in a hitter-friendly league like the GBL, triples are hard to come by -- only 60 have been struck so far this year.
