1. That pitcher did way better than I thought he would. Perhaps they have something there?
2. I wish they had those sissy stick sliding gloves shoved up their bleeps. To many opposing infielders are blocking the plate with their feet on those head first slides. Start going in feet first and take them ankles out with the cleats and they'll stop that.
3. Why is it a rule that all Reds batters never take the bat off their shoulder on the first pitch? The announcers even stated that their pitcher had thrown 14 first pitch strikes out of 15. Swing the damn bat!!
Oh and 4. So glad to see DLC taking some swings that the fans don't feel a breeze off of in the upper deck. 4 hit day
Oh and 5. Good to see Senzel with the HR
Geez, Steer goes 4 for 4 and can't get any love? That guy gets no respect around here.
Just kidding. You've been throwing him props more than most.
I'm not too concerned about DLC's mini slump. I saw or heard a stat a few days ago showing that he has faced the fewest percentage of fastballs per at bat than any hitter in MLB.
