Adley looked really bad with that at bat.

At least saw some pitches. Urias swinging at a pitch at his neck.

Has anyone mentioned the helmet advertisements? I despise that look.

Ramon first pitch swinging is utterly unacceptable 

Was Cowser first pitch swing also unacceptable?

Adley could really benefit from pushing himself out of his comfort zone and swinging at the first pitch until they realize he’s doing that more. Right now they know they can throw a bullet down the middle to get ahead, never having to waste a pitch on him since he is so stubborn about taking one every AB.

Seems like the stakes have no effect on these inpatient hitters

Looking like the KBO out there.

Horrendous approach at the plate once again. The whole philosophy of this team needs to change when hitting. I would love to have a guy like Bobby Abreu on this team.

He swung at a strike

LOL they snuck in a quick T-Moblie ad in the MIIDDLE of the inning.  And I thought the batting helmet ad was crass.

Time to score.  

[justD]

Love it.
