It was outside for sure, but the thing is, a leadoff hitter can only go off of what you've called so far. So when you call that pitch a ball, you can't turn around and ring someone up on a pitch further outside.
Am I the only one who looks forward to Morales's starts more than anyone on the staff right now? Not saying he's the best starter on the staff, just saying he's got such a high amount of potential, it's fascinating to watch him build towards it.
Like I said. He has done nothing to justify you complaining about him being there. What has he done to justify you saying that he isn't a cleanup hitter?
