Congratulations to Francisco Rodriguez

Posted by Philip Michaels at 10:44 PM in The Athletics

You know, I’m always bitterly disappointed when the A’s don’t win, but, in the spirit of good sportsmanship, allow me to congratulate the Angels’ Francisco Rodriguez on the occasion of picking up his first Major League save.

I assume it was his first, you see, since, upon recording the third out of the ninth inning, he jumped and capered and preened and carried on. So naturally, I just figured that he never saved a ballgame before in his life.

Hey, look at me! I recorded a save! Whoo-hoo! Look at me! Look at me!

You stay classy, Los Angeles of Anaheim.

Considering how lame he often looks doing so, you'd be shocked at just how justifiable it gets to be. He ought to enjoy it now; with those mechanics, he'll be out of baseball by 2010.
