He's gotten 300+ ABs at five different spots in the order. Second is his worst spot amongst them.

 

Awful lineup management, no matter what happens.

it just bothers me that Baker is out...what the hell fredi.

mets and phillies won.....just great

Yay.

NICE AB!!!

Whoop! Duca on base! Sure, that was off ball 4, but whatever...

Wooo Paul, great AB

Man great at bat by LoDuca...

Does it matter to anyone else that the ball LoDuca hit off the end of the bat was ball 4?

I don't care if he goes 4-4. Its terrible lineup management by Fredi.

Poor Paul.

Haha.

Yeah.. It means he doesn't try to hit ball 4 out of the park he adjusted to the pitch. It's just one at bat though and I would rather see Baker up there especially after the kind of game he had yesterday.

why would it as long as he got a hit. but now if he didnt then it would be a different story. i guess today we, including me, are going to be very critical about everything lo duca does

I agree with that but that was very ball 4. It's nice that he got a hit, it's great that he made contact and nudged it in there, but I don't like that he swung at a pitch so far off the plate.

Beach Volleyball final is on tonight at 11pm...for those interested.

sh*t!

Ugh

Yeah, maybe overly critical. I admit that. But the point is that he had let that ball go, there was 100% chance that he ended up at 1st base. Swinging doesn't give you that.

Great pitch

Well we can't win 0-0 Now let's shut them down OLSEN!!!

 

Edit: I SAID SHUT THEM DOWN!!!
