Mikey 16,776 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I duno about our coach. With 2 out in the bottom of the ninth and the tying run on base, he takes a .323 RH hitter out and inserts a .167 RH pinch hitter. The guy he took out was having a good day, 2 for 3 with a triple. I know we're off to a good start in the SEC, 4-2 so far, but some of the things Coach Paw does mystify me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autigeremt 6,753 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 He was looking for a HR. Ortman has 2 HR in sporadic at bats. That's the only thing I can get out of the mindset, but hey.....the errors in the field had more to do with this loss than the last at bat. We have GOT to do a better job in the field.

80Tiger 904 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Looking for HR with tying run on third?! I hope not. The play is to get that run across. I don't know enough about the players to know if situational hitting was the right call or not. But a 200 point difference in avg is pretty significant. Especially if the starter was having a good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
