I bet Joe Nathan discreetly goes on the DL after that All Star Game

I'd say Joe Hathan only has 299 1/2 saves

*When you are a "left field" umpire, your responsibilities are rather minimal and it is practically a day off so on the very odd chance that you have to make a call you sure better get it right; especially if the play is six feet away from you. Especially if you are looking right at the play. Especially if the play is not THAT difficult to call. Grade: Fail. No post-game snack for Phil Cuzzi.

*Memo to Joe Nathan: On a pick-off throw to second base, just aim for the base. If you are a foot or two off the bag with the throw, you won't get the runner but you won't end up on Sports Center. If however you throw the ball 15 feet off the bag, you are on blooper reels forever and I don't know that you get any type of "royalties" for that. Baseball is entertainment of course but you do not want you yourself to be the entertainment.
