With Alou at DH, Anderson plays left
Published 5/19/2008 by Marty Noble at Major League Baseball News
Which player is assigned to which position is not always a matter of health, rest or who's hot and who's not. So it was on Sunday evening, when manager Willie Randolph filled out the lineup card for the Mets' Interleague game against the Yankees. With the designated-hitter rule in effect, Randolph had a choice of hitters to serve in the role. He chose Moises Alou.

Carlos Delgado just had a home run taken away from him. It wasn't obvious, as it hit the base of the pole, which for some reason is black instead of yellow. Tough call, but on the replay you could tell, so I can't truly fault the umpires. But, it riled up Willie Randolph and his staff, which I couldn't be happier about.Bondy: Hot seat skips to Yankee side
