Swingin' for the fences

[Dawgtruc]

Even Jess Davis.

This team just doesn't hit for xtra base hits, doubles, gappers, or just try to string some basic base hits together. All solo HRs.

The greatness that was TA & Rowdey. They did what they had to do to drive the ball hard somewhere. And if it went out, it went out.

Gotro is not getting thru to these guys. We put no pressure on the opposing pitcher or defense

The team is absolutely atrocious. All about the longball.

I would’ve taken swinging at all there with the bases loaded.

And the backwards k

I don’t have a problem with them swing for the fences. At least they are getting the 17’ing bat off of their shoulder. I’m seeing what Bruce was talking about a month ago.

I have figured out what the 2 strike chest bump means...

Evidently it means" I am about to strike out looking". Back to back with the bases loaded.

As frustrating as watching pitchers who can't throw strikes: guys we count on watching strike three with the bases loaded.

TA and Rowdey were also guys that under normal circumstances wouldn’t have still been playing college baseball last year. Very rare to have guys with that much experience in the lineup.

 

[Ace-Leroy]

A another one looking...

That is 5 tonight looking and either 5 or 6 last night.

Making another little **** look like Cy Young. It’s what we do best.

Looking for walks.

That's something that these modern hitting coaches have forgotten about those practitioners of "getting your pitch" like Barry Bonds, Tony Gwynn and Ted Williams. They might have walked a bunch, BUT they didn't strike out much either. They didn't take borderline stirkes when they had two on them. (none of those were borderline yesterday).
