Read MoreToday’s statline:
At bat 1 (Bottom of second): 3 pitch strikeout swinging
Yordan started the at bat, like he always does, with a strike watching on a juicy fastball in the zone. He then got a terrible curveball inside called for a strike, just a horrible call by the ump there on a pitch that was several inches inside off the plate. With the ump establishing such a large zone, Yordan had to protect the plate, and as a result swung and missed at a fastball inside but high and out of the zone. Not a good at bat, but I feel like the crucial call on a pitch that should have tied the count but instead put him in a 0-2 hole kinda set the tone of the at bat and set him up to fail.
At bat 2 (Bottom of third): 1 pitch single to center, RBI
The next time he came up, Yordan wasted no time getting ready, as he swung early on a first-pitch fastball and lined it hard to right center field for the first run of the game. Good job here by him to capitalize on a fastball early in the count in a huge at bat here to push home a run and keep the line moving. He couldn’t score in the huge inning though, as Correa, batting immediately after him, grounded into a RBI fielder’s choice that forced Yordan out at second.
At bat 3 (Bottom of fourth): 5 pitch strikeout swinging
Yordan started the at bat by watching a curve low in the dirt for ball one, before watching another curve in the zone to even the count. He then watched an inside fastball near his hands to make the count 2-1, and then fouled off another fastball (I think it was a fastball, it was 84 MPH) low to even the count again. Then on a 2-2 count Yordan sold out and swung for the fences on a curve low in the dirt for the strikeout swinging that wasn’t even close. A bad chase there, I feel like those have increased a lot since the all star break.
At bat 4 (Bottom of seventh): 4 pitch groundout to third
Once again, Yordan started the at bat passively, as he watched a curve and a fastball, both in the zone to make it an 0-2 count. He then watched a borderline high sinker ball before hitting a good grounder up the middle, but unfortunately right to the shifted third baseman, who threw out Yordan easily. A good process marred by a substandard result, pretty much the tale of Yordan’s night.
