And coincidentally in his last at bat with us down 7 he was swinging for an 8 run HR with nobody on baseEverybody does that on this team when we are down that much. They don't get good AB's when they are down a lot. I'm just embarrassed to allow this many runs back to back nights against a bad offense. They haven't score many runs at all this year.
I'm still not sure he ever touched the plate. You can see Zaun's foot right there. Horrible positioning as you mentioned. I honestly don't care about the umpires this much either.
I can't say for sure it wasn't intentional. His command was spot on it seemed the entire game. If we do go after one of them, it better be with a hard thrower, but a pitcher that isn't very good.
I still don't think this is a good spot for CV. He's more of a 7th/8th inning guy with the way he's pitching. If Hawkins was available tonight, I think he could pitch here instead.
