There we go! Nice job Santander. Let’s claw our way back. 

[Malike]

Santander is our best hitter.

Need to see a Mountcastle bomb here so he can get back on everyone’s good side haha. 

[Gurgi]

Pretty nice with two outs.....

That's Interesting--certainly corrects a misconception I had.

Quite the dugout tantrum there.

Not a good effort from Mountcastle.

That won't change many minds.

Gave that at bat away.

I was wondering if they were still easing him back into it because of the vertigo. But he played the last 4 innings at first yesterday. 

Maybe he had a spell of it then--you never know.

Agreed. turns out exit velocity proves pitchers provide minimal power to long balls. One can just watch the HR derby or BP and see that those 65mph meatballs hit 470 feet are clearly not providing the power.

That last swing is what is so irritating. I know it is tougher than watching on tv, but shorten up your swing son and try to make contact. Trying to blast a 55 ft pitch.

They didn't want to see O'Hearn and it's harder to pull a HR to LF, I guess.
