David Eckstein Is One Of The Greatest Players To Ever Play The Game Of Baseball
Friday, May 22, 2009
Or so says Padres' announcer, Mark Grant. During last night's Giants-Padres game, David Eckstein lost a flyball in the lights at second base. Instead of pleading for help, the crafty guy pretended he was going to catch the ball, thus letting it drop and fooling the runner at first. A smart play indeed, but Grant decided to take hyperbole to another level, calling him one of the "best players to ever play the game of Baseball!"....
Wow...that's just a tad over-the-top. I thought the whole "David Eckstein has done so much with his small frame" talk, but I guess not. Every time he goes to a new team, we're going to have to hear it all over again.
