After beating the Brewers with a grand slam in his firstmajor-league game the night before, Brandon Crawford couldn't crackthe Giants' Saturday lineup for a simplereason. On Friday, Bruce Bochy had told Emmanuel Burriss that hewould start at shortstop the next day. He had to keep his word andstick to the plan. When athletes praise a coach or manager's communication skills,they are referring to decisions like that one. Bochy didn't reactto the emotions of the moment, favoring giddy impulse overthoughtful preparation.
