Coste is a backup starting on Sunday Night Baseball and its like its the biggest thing ever, but yet when Hafner does it, its nothing because hes a regular? shouldnt it be the other way around, Hafner get the praise for doing it day in and day out, or Coste who does it twice a week to give Ruiz a rest? again not bashing him even though it sounds like but take it as you want...
as for the good game, i guess it depends what your definition of a good game is. 1-4 with a K and 4 LOB...
who cares let him have his time, its big cause you just don't know if he'll ever get the chance to do it again. You don't think Hafner, Erstad, and Helling had there time in the sun??? The guy worked his freaking man off (not saying the other ND guys didn't work there man off) 10+ years in the minor leagues to get to this point, give him a little lime light for his accomplishment. I'm proud of all the ND guys and hope they can keep representing ND well.
On a side not Peter Gammons said its a excellent read so I may have to check it out sometime.
