Frankie walks on five pitches.

Hernandez takes a ball, but that doesn't convince him to wait for a strike. He grounds into a DP, partly because Lindor doesn't hustle and doesn't slide.

When I taught kids to play baseball, I had a hard abd fast rule.

If the batter before you walks, you do not swing at a pitch until you take a strike.

Cats, you and I are old school so that rule no longer applies.

Cookie in a real mess.

Bags juiced with nobody out.

The most annoying thing about this team is the enormous number of lazy and/or stupid plays they make or fail to make...

Lindor leads the way in that regard...

 

[CATS44]

Josh Bell goes down swinging.

[CATS44]

Double play!
