While I was watching the Reds-Braves game last night, a question came to mind 
that I wasn't quite sure what the answer was.  

With Pete Rose playing first base, how many times is he allowed to visit the 
mound to talk to the pitcher?  I know a manager/coach has to change pitchers
on his second visit to the mound but what if that manager is also playing?

Also, I don't know if any of you watched the game but there was a play 
involving Pete that was very unlike Charley Hustle.  Once while he was batting 
he swung and just tipped the ball.  He broke for first base, the ball hit the 
ground about 5 feet down the first base line in foul territory (just outside
the line), Pete stopped running, the ball rolled fair, Cerone picked it up and 
tagged Rose for the out.  The Atlanta announcers wondered out loud if the 
Cincinnati manager would fine Rose for lack of hustle.  Rose did remove 
himself from the lineup after that, maybe for defensive purposes.

My predictions:	

NL Playoffs		Atlanta Braves
			NY Mets

AL Playoffs		Kansas City Royals
			Boston Red Sox

			
World Series:		NY Mets
			Kansas City Royals


World Champs:		NY Mets


NOTE:  When Horner's healthy, Murphy is the BEST.
