How to win a bar bet
Turn on tonight's Angels-Colorado Rockies exhibition telecast on FSN West and make the prediction to anyone in the room: I'll bet we see a triple play in this game.
Collect your money and wait until the third inning.
With runners at first and second and none out, the Rockies' Steve Finley will hit a liner off Angels right-hander Dustin Moseley that first baseman Casey Kotchman catches just inches from the ground. Kotchman will toss it to Moseley covering first base to retire Garrett Atkins for the second out, and then Moseley will throw to shortstop Erick Aybar, who will step on second base to force out Kaz Matsui and complete the rare feat.
(The game was played this afternoon. It is being shown on FSN West at 7 p.m. tonight. That's a secret no one needs to know.)
