This.How can you possibly swing on the first pitch there.
I had a feeling he was going to, but was like “nah he can’t be that undisciplined.”This.
Wasn't he swinging first pitch on the leadoff homers?For the life of me, I just don't get why Dugie did that.
Yeah, that's my thought. He might have gone the whole at bat never seeing a better pitch and most times putting it in play ties the game at a minimum. He just did the one thing you can't do.He swung at a pitch that couldn't have been more middle middle, the problem was he didn't do anything with it, not that he swung
It was a get me over. It was a good pitch to hit.Gameday has the pitch right down the middle. (There is a school of thought that a hitter *can* swing at the 1st pitch because the pitcher might be in a mood to groove one. Not watching so can't tell if the was the case.)
The guy literally could not find the strike zone for the life of him. You let the first pitch go because he might not throw another strike, and then you've got a tie gameYeah, that's my thought. He might have gone the whole at bat never seeing a better pitch and most times putting it in play ties the game at a minimum. He just did the one thing you can't do.
On one of them, yes. This is a completely different situation.Wasn't he swinging first pitch on the leadoff homers?

You guys just don't understand: It turned out poorly, therefore the attempt was a mistake.Yeah, that's my thought. He might have gone the whole at bat never seeing a better pitch and most times putting it in play ties the game at a minimum. He just did the one thing you can't do.

I feel in that situation you have to take a pitch. Of course I’m sitting on my couch and not standing at the plate.View attachment 70774
It was right down the middle but Dugie could have taken one or two. Sucks but Dugie missed it. Game.
Disagree. You have to take a couple after the guys walks three straight. I'd be interested in what Cora says.You guys just don't understand: It turned out poorly, therefore the attempt was a mistake.
