Dustin Pedroia has been on fire lately, and last night became the first Red Sox player since Wade Boggs in 1989 to have back-to-back four hit games. How hot is the Boston second baseman? So hot that White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen intentionally walked Pedroia with a runner on third and two outs Saturday night.

Guillen later explained his maneuver, dropping a hilarious backhanded compliment:

"I never thought I would walk a jockey," he said.

From most managers that’d be an insult. From Guillen, it’s practically endearing.
