Why wasn't Milledge running? Missed the IGT today but was a little surprised that Milledge was not running when LoDuca hit into the DP that I am sure everyone knew was coming. I understand what the TV guys were saying about not wanting to get picked off but I always felt there the decision to run or not to run is more about the guy at the plate. LoDuca almost never strikes out and it isn't like Milledge needed a great jump since he wasn't trying to steal the base. Not that I think it would made a difference but maybe it gets the IF guys moving and that ball gets through or at worst they have no play at second. I thought it was a bad call on Willie's part not to send Milledge.
