June 25, 201411 yr Daryl Van Schouwen @CST_soxvan 2h Adam Eaton has reached safely in 19 straight games, including a career-high 11-game hitting streak (.372), 2nd-longest active streak in AL.
June 27, 201411 yr Eaton in June - .326/.402/.483 11.9% BB%, 16.9% K% 143 wRC+ This is a lot like how he looked in the minor leagues. I hope it sticks and I hope all he had today is a cramp. Please, someone tell him to quit stretching for first base.
June 27, 201411 yr The White Sox should know more on Eaton’s status on Friday. He said the combination of a long game Wednesday with a 69-minute rain delay in humid weather had him in bad shape before first pitch. The leadoff man was removed after one at-bat for precautionary reasons as Ventura was concerned Eaton was vulnerable to a longer-term injury had he stayed in the lineup. Eaton said he must communicate better with his coaching staff about when he needs a day off. “It basically crushed my legs,” Eaton said. “It didn’t look good, didn’t feel good. We’ll be kind of day-to-day right now is what we’re hoping for. They feel even better after some of the treatment. “Hopefully we can deal with it today and get back hopefully. It’s been feeling great for a week or so, like it comes and goes. Last night kind of pushed ‘em back. Hopefully we’ll bounce back, I did almost kind of get an off day. Should be good tomorrow.” Not the most promising of comments for the future. www.csnchicago.com
June 28, 201411 yr Author Daryl Van Schouwen @CST_soxvan 19m Eaton's issue isn't specific to 1 issue. "Both my legs felt like you-know-what two days ago." Better today, is 'super-pumped' to play again Eaton has to be better about getting treatment, he said. Tried dealing without, didn't work. 'It falls on me for not taking initiative.'
