Lineup Creativity
Lineup Creativity
I don't think very many people have accused Tony LaRussa of not being creative and open to new ideas. I mean, we've got the pitcher batting eighth, redefining the way relief pitchers are used, stuff like that. And now, he's showing that he's not bound by convention with his leadoff man.

Ankiel Throws Strikes From Centre Field
Ankiel Throws Strikes From Centre Field
