If baker handles the throw we turn it over and go on. That's baseball though. Just wondering about approach at the plate as I didn't get to watch tonight.
Baker hit the ball on the screws several times, but couldn't find a hole.
Rand had a couple of hits and I really am liking his confidence and approach the more that I watch him.
Cantu had a night similar to Baker, hard hit balls, but right at people
Tres had a good night outside of one of his early ABs in the game.
Denny looked good in his first plate appearance, but was pulled later in the game.
Losing Mathis for an undisclosed injury/illness hurt.
Gurwitz looked off balance for the majority of the game at the plate.
The one thing to note is that the Stanford starter, Bubic, had a very good changeup that was mixed in with a serviceable curve and fastball nicely. The way he was pitching kept our hitters off balance early on.
Hock, (reliever,) came in and also had a good changeup and curve ball, along with a high 80s FB. Also kept the hitters guessing with the way the game was called.
All in all, outside of players really seeing their first game, (Harlan) I think we had a good approach. The killer stat was 18 Ks.
