It was him guessing wrong again, as it was a fastball right down the plate.
PitchTrax shows it it barely caught the bottom-most part of the strike zone.

Pre ASB, he hit 29 homers on 240 balls put in play
Post ASB, he's hit 2 homers on 54 balls put in play
If he kept the pace, he'd have 35 HR and he'd be hitting number 36 tomorrow night.

If you're going to say Q is worthy of going to the ballpark, then so is Arrieta. He would be 4th in the majors in ERA if he qualified.
But he isn't. And Q has a 3.04 ERA and he is qualified.

Versatile defensive player. Saves a spot when you don't need a backup INF and OF.
He's basically Brent Lillibridge with less power

Have to wonder if his build limits his endurance and his effectiveness later in the season.
The difference is that this year, he did get one month off...
