King of strikeouts

[RogerIndy]

After watching Pompey strikeout AGAIN, I thought, he must be the king of strikeouts for UK. No. Dawson is, Pompey in second place. I took data from UKAthletics.com and did a quick spreadsheet.

AB SO SO/AB
Heyer 101 24 0.2376
Cottam 106 24 0.2264
Pompey 78 20 0.2564
Collett 104 25 0.2404
Becker 101 23 0.2277
Dawson 83 26 0.3133

Well he didn’t strike out there.

No he didn't. I don't know if it is just me but it seems like he often strikes out when we really need him.

Met his parents in Houston. Very nice people

I am sure you are right and that Tristan is nice young man too. When I was at a game last year, I noticed a small Canadian flag sticker on the back of his batting helmet. I thought that was cool and something you wouldn't see on TV. I have confidence that the coaches know what they are doing with him and with the other guys too. I wouldn't second guess our coaching staff as much as some on this board do, even though I get frustrated sometimes.

Got a great glove but he does seem to SO a lot. In his defense seems like a lot of shortstops do that.

I told you Dawson was the King!

This is not a fun topic, but this might be the perfect example of why we shouldn't have Dawson and Pompey hitting back to back. Luckily, Pompey gets an RBI bases loaded walk rather than anything bad.

No, it's not a fun topic. We can sit here being armchair coaches and talk about batting order, strategy, etc, but fortunately, we have coaches that have coached more games than I have seen (I can't speak for anyone else).

Here we go.

Called third strikes with RISP are aggravating. We may lead the country in that.
