That wasn't even with runners in scoring position... LOL!

 

 

they can't do anything wit RISP, all we need are home runs and doubles wit a man on first

Untrue.

 

 

I know, u will tell me they are around the league average wit RISP, but this half particularly it seems like we can't do anything.

 

True, 0-1 RISP counter. (K)

That is true. Lately, it has seemed very bad, even though I sometimes think that because we only break out the RISP counter for bad games.

 

EDIT: And we are 5th in OPS with RISP. Above league average.

 

 

that's because we never have the basic single wit RISP, its home run or bust for this team

Alfredo is very very very bad against lefties.

Bad strikeouts from Hanley & Uggla that inning, could've gotten more.

 

Least we got a run though, good to see after the Cards big inning.

 

Jeremy didn't exactly look too flattering on his K either.

but u can complain wit me :banghead

just what we need - a shrinking strike zone

that's because we never have the basic single wit RISP, its home run or bust for this team

We are about league average in BA too, if you rather have that.

 

The whole "they only hit HR" is a huge myth.

way to hustle after that ball Uggla /sarcasm

Awesome. So when you throw the ball over the plate, its not a strike anymore. When did baseball change the rules?

what's our BA with RISP? .256?

Nice rebound inning Chris

He was in Ugglas way.

THANK U HANLEY, Don't let Uggla touch the ball, he is bad luck

great wit Volstad struggling to throw strikes the ump decides to squeeze the strike zone

It's a catch-22 sometimes. The ump won't give you crap until you throw strikes, but you can't get strike calls because he won't give you crap.

 

Good inning.

yep dim thats how our relationship goes

 

k LETS GET SOEM RUNS YOU BUMS

Of course if I remember correctly the last time he faced a lefty he had a bloop run scoring single down the left field line. (3rd base)

Chris looks OK. Fredi should give him a backrub, keep him cool and collected.

 

Josh up, wonder if he will continue to look slow at the plate.

.255, league average is .259. Not a huge difference.
