    Someone needs to trick AJ into thinking the bases are other than loaded.

    Did anybody else notice Adam didn't seem to run that out?

    I'd rather see him K than hit into a DP on a 2-0 pitch there.

    Gameday says that was a middle-middle fastball. Jones should have hit that in the bleachers.

    Make him throw a CALLED strike.

    The guy hadn't thrown one over in 6 pitches. There's absolutely no reason, in that situation, to swing at the first over-the-dish pitch that he sees.

    And that's why Jones shouldn't be batting #4 Buck!

    Alvarez managed to load the bases with no outs and get out of the inning having thrown only 18 pitches.

    What.

    Why would Adam swing on a 2-0 count.?

    Was it? I thought it kinda jammed him. Although if it was down the middle, I guess that's not a bad decision to swing, just poor execution.
