ESPN “Plays of the Day”
Cody made it in the ESPN play of the day with an backward running catch in the rain near the warning track. It was in the 10th inning against the Brewers. He had to really twist to make the catch. Josh Willingham also made it in with a forward diving catch in the same game. Nice thing is this “play of the day” is for all sports, and there’s only ten, so great recognition. From the Fish’s site:
Another defensive gem kept the score even in the 10th. This time, with Geoff Jenkins at second, right fielder Cody Ross went back to the wall and pulled in Weeks’ line drive.
The game was rained out and will continue tomorrow at 7:05 ET.
Other things to watch (or listen) for is the much touted face off of Boston’s gyroball wonder Dice-K against Ichiro Suzuki. This also takes place at 7:05 ET. The writer of this will also be a year closer to 40. *Insert shameless birthday plug*
