Just a brutal weekend offensively

 

[cardvolfan]

Yes but that was not great AB

Not every at-bat is going to be a great one. It’s baseball.

 

[rockytop36]

We do seem to be making better contact today in general which is a good sign

 

[cardvolfan]

74% of Beam’s pitches have been strikes.

No doubt, but with a guy at third, you can't just swing at a first pitch with a pitcher with a high pitch count, settle in make him throw. We have struggled to score so don't flail away at first pitch

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Single by San Diego one out

I disagree. You drive him in if you get a good first pitch.

I disagree. You drive him in if you get a good first pitch.

Maybe if we haven't struggled to score like we had, and the guy did have a pretty high pitch count. But we're ok right now.

 

[TheBigOne10]

At least our defense has been more solid today

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]
