9. B Gardner LF		Brandon Inge playing 3B has tp com in and slightly to his right to field the softly hit ground ball - he pretends to forget about Posada side steping towards home in the normal fashion and takes a step into his throw, which gets Posada to take that one step too far into no mans's land, Inge then turns and runs at Posada, who slow to react and dosn't creat a run down to allow the runners to move up, Inge tags him quickly and then turns to hold the runners. Great Play!!! GB5 FC 5-2 #7 out
