Dan of Steel Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) This team has gradually climbed the ladder with RISP this season. Problem is that we're climbing down, not up. Started great, and they've gotten progressively worse as the year has gone on. Edited August 17, 2021 by Dan of Steel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, considering that (prior to this season) , Vaughn had never played a professional baseball game above A+, it’s hard not to be amazed by his performance during his rookie season. The fact that he has also had to learn how to play the OF… and has performed so well there, makes his overall (MLB) debut season all the more impressive.

mharkins Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Whew… Koepek’s natural late movement helped keep that (well hit ball) off the bat’s sweet spot… thus, keeping the deep fly ball in the ball park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
