In the 1st Cubs game I watched a good bit of it. I can't remember for sure who the two were (to many new names) but both were RH batters and both were swinging at pitches that just blew my mind Balls bouncing two feet in front of home plate, balls a foot and a half outside ! They were handing the opposing pitcher his game on a silver platter. The pitches were never in the strike zone from the second they left the pitchers hand.
Wasn't a hit and run scenario or anything. You just can't win ball games when you're giving away outs like that. Had nothing to do with Votto's struggling.
It's an all around frustrating team to watch. Missing India hurts and makes the offense less fun to watch. At least Greene has had some good moments lately on the mound.
