But seriously, that easily wins our award for Most Shocking Play of the Decade. I mean, the dude was 3-5 that game, very nearly 4-5, and had started the 9th with, what should have been 2 errors, and brought the Phils in danger of squandering an early 6-0 lead after half an inning. That was when Oliver Perez was still pitching! Ah, those were the days... Damn shame Beardo had to go and ruin it.<br>You would agree, though, Kieran, that both the day they released him and the day the Nats signed him (to a minor-league deal!) were two of the greatest days of the decade from the team, right?
