i saw collins actually take garrett anderson out of a game when he didn't run a ball out. tell you, i learned a major lesson early in my career. >> gary: that one in the air, sweeney going back, sweeney's not going to get it. brian roberts saw how close markakis was getting, decides i better get another one. >> jim: they play him a couple of steps to left. just a sinker down and in. he lofts it. it's in the air a long time. not a lot of urgency to get to third base. puts it on cruise control. it will be a little more difficult for adam jones to hit him in. >> gary: bear in mind, brian is the leading base steeler of -- if you give him a chance, he will take off. 11 for 11 stealing third. cahill realizing that turns around. >> jim: you could get a bigger lead. you get guys out there that can really steal bases, you almost start flinching. because, yes, your middle infielders have to keep them close, but if they do, they're out of position. >> gary: there he goes. no throw. 12 for 12 stealing third. >> jim: i guess that's why he didn't feel imperative to get to third. 22 stol
