With thoughts of Capt Lou on my mind, watching Bobby Abreu this series reminds me of old school WWF, when the good guy turns heel like when one tag team partner turns on another. He's the guy who "mistakenly" hits his partner with a chair when the other guy moves, or "inadvertently" turns his back when his partner is desperate for a tag. Abreu is that guy ready to stun the California Los Angeles Anaheim Schwarzenegger Angels. Why else would he be overrunning second base to get tagged out, meekly swinging at pitches out of the zone and throwing balls away to allow the Yankees to pad their lead? Thursday night he stuns the crowd. After tackling Torii Hunter as he attempts to catch Nick Swisher's weak pop up to center with the bases loaded which would end the inning, he'll rip off his Angel jersey and expose the pinstripes he's been hiding all series long.
