I'm telling you when they see pitches they are a very, very good offensive club.

That's just selfish or stupid or both to swing at the first pitch after he couldn't find the strike zone. And it wasn't even a f***ing strike!

 

 

Yeah, it worked...but the approach wasn't correct at all.

 

Wonder if anyone in the dugout will mention that? Hopefully Steverson will point out the logic of allowing an imploding pitcher to dig his own grave instead of helping him out.

Alexei needs stop time off.

Care of South Side Sox...

 

There's your lead, Jeff. Win the game.

At least we didn't sign Victor

He can not hit it very far with his knee. They need to rest him up now before it gets worse

Where was that?

Smart move by Jeff to groove something for a hobbling VMart knowing he couldn't hit it out.

 

I'm gonna assume it was on purpose.

Great job Conor!!! There is the swing we loved last year

 

That was the sweet swingin' Conor Gillaspie .

Perfect shift.

Let's make a bet on Avi's average and BABIP relationship.

 

 

Right...

 

I don't care about his BABIP for the 10th time. I am not an advanced stats guy so I won't be making any bets involving them

 

And I am not saying Avi is going to continue to hit like this all year. I said he has been hitting the ball well lately and that is all I care about at the moment. Once his average starts to drop a lot then I will worry.

3 DPs

Sigh

Of course swings at the first one and gidp

3 double plays in 4 innings.

 

Wtf that was a perfect place to have Micah sac bunt and try and beat it out. Was it not?

The whole point of this is that the statistic tells you it's due to drop. You're essentially saying "I don't understand why this high thing is about to become lower so I'll say it's good when it's high and bad when it's low".

Oh Jeff

Questionable change-up there to Gose.

 

Eaton playing that ball very conservatively...seems a bit tentative out there tonight. Afraid to make more mistakes?

What a break from the ump on that 1st strike

K! I was saying to myself FB up in the zone. Remembering his K of Cabrera in Detroit

MC ........K

No, it's called I don't care about the stat. I know Avi won't be hitting .340 and probably not even hit .290. But currently he has been our best hitter average wise the last 10 or so games. Trust me, I know his average is going to drop a lot, I would be happy if he ended up hitting over .270 for the year.

 

I don't need a stupid stat to tell me he won't hit .330+ for the year, that is just common sense by watching him hit

Nice job by Shark with the K there. Would have been a huge blow if they had a big 2 out rally.
