That ball was 2 foot inside and Vaz swung at it. Dalbec must be coaching him.

 

It was 101 mph!!

 

I know those two Dalbec chased were just 99mph. Probably changeups…

We had them on the ropes there. Shoulda scored more than just one

 

Bad base running by Refsnyder. He should have been half way on that ball and he could have gotten to second.

It doesn't matter how fast it was, it was never in the zone. Way outside the zone.

I’d sit Dalbec down right now

 

Why?

 

It’s not real shameful to swing and miss a 99mph fastball that he probably had to make a decision on before it left Chapman’s hand…

Seriously? You don’t think velocity matters for how much time a hitter has to decide to swing at a pitch?!?

Why does VAZ take so much shite on this board? I'm hoping the SOX re-sign him.

 

Especially when facing triple digit fastballs…

To send a message: either find some plate discipline or be prepared to sit a lot.

So Pivetta will have one fewer L than he deserves.

 

That might be the closest thing to a positive comment I’ve ever seen you make.

 

It’s still not one. It’s still pretty negative. But I think it’s the closest…

A professional hitter who routinely sees guys throwing 95 to 100 should not be swinging at balls 2 feet out of the zone. If thats the case, they might as well swing at anything.
