Step aside Peyton, otherwise Mr. Ankiel might take your head off. If you didn't catch Rick "Wild Thing" Ankiel's assists from last night against the Rockies, do yourself a favor and check out the videos/links below. For a guy that probably couldn't hit a catcher's mitt from 60'6" to save himself from castration, he sure does have an uncanny knack for nailing runners at 3rd; from, oh, say 300'-350'. Ironic I suppose, and yet oddly ammusing, not to mention jaw dropping. I mean, Taveras isn't exactly Adam Dunn running the bases out there...
