And..wait till next year..now Bears..Hawks and Bulls for me..
Is it Chili's fault these guys swing from the heels constantly? Don't take pitches at the right time? The players under performed. This game, I have never seen more swings out balls out of the zone, hell, by both teams. The hitters need to start thinking about getting on base instead of HRs.

yeah, I don't think it was the hitting coaches problem either ... it was a 1 run game and everyone seemed to want to be the one to put one on Waveland ... even the Rockies ... and what won the game? small ball

and there is nothing wrong with playing small ball in a close game where the possibility of even 1 run can be big

I think the schedule did them in. Hitters were tired.
