April 9, 200818 yr Make contact to the right side and move the runner to 3rd. That would have been what was asked of Hatte. What's there to disagree about there??? There was already an out. His job would have been to score the runner and get on himself.
April 9, 200818 yr Author They want their pinch hitters to get out w/ a guy on second and one out? Noted. What is your take on what they would expect from Hatte? This should be good...
April 9, 200818 yr Author There was already an out. His job would have been to score the runner and get on himself. And there is about a 70% chance he'd fail. Ouch...
April 9, 200818 yr Please someone do something. It seems that anytime they get someone on...They think they need to hit one out.
April 9, 200818 yr They want their pinch hitters to get out w/ a guy on second and one out? Noted. You realize that if the Reds had pinch hit for Cueto that at best only 3 out of 10 times would they get a hit.
April 9, 200818 yr So now we are on hypotheticals??? They conceded an out in the 7th inning of a game they were trailing w/ a runner in scoring position and one out w/ a rookie pitcher who isn't known for hitting. And you said yourself it should have been Hatte. I don't care that he gave up a run. I care that he wasn't hit for.
April 9, 200818 yr I know we talk about this a lot, but I can't help to laugh everytime Grande acts like someone crushed the ball, and the OF will take 1 or 2 steps back, and make the routine play.
April 9, 200818 yr What is your take on what they would expect from Hatte? This should be good... A better chance to get on base and or score the runner. Are we being serious here?

April 9, 200818 yr I know we talk about this a lot, but I can't help to laugh everytime Grande acts like someone crushed the ball, and the OF will take 1 or 2 steps back, and make the routine play. It looked like that ball BP hit was out.
April 9, 200818 yr Author A better chance to get on base and or score the runner. Are we being serious here? I clearly didn't agree, but Kueto got the ball in play and moved the runner. Was he stranded at 3rd? No. Mission accomplished. Tie game after 6 1/2. Next...
April 9, 200818 yr It looked like that ball BP hit was out. Hit good..yes, I am one that gets a little too excited at hard hit balls, and I didn't think that had a chance.
