If he's doing so well, why is he batting 3rd? Literally the lowest cumulativ leverage of the highest 5 slots. (because of this exact scenario: 3-hole leads the team in "2 outs, nobody on" appearances, which is the rock bottom in leverage for a batter) The slots after lose a few ABs per season in...
This guy is struggling to find the plate, but watch this next guy swing at a bad pitch and GIDP down 7. Calling it.
edit: Well, he grounded out.
Team MX really needed a big inning there. Looking like they'll hav to wait til next tourney.
With that 6th run, there's almost no chance that the game going to extras would screw Team USA over. [in principle, a 7-6 Mexico win in the 15th inning or something would still eliminate USA, but the ghost runner makes such a result very unlikely]
DeRosa can breathe easy.

Nobody expected the team to be coached this poorly, to be fair. Not even many of the doubters -- the doubters largely just thought the system wasn't going to work in the SEC, but I don't think any of them expected us to struggle to beat Martin and Belmont and to hold our own with practically...
Nya ends the game with -22 plusminus on 23 minutes. She does just not generate offense, nor play good defense. Her analytics were bad at SMU, and they're bad in the SEC.
Tennessee was +14 with her on the bench, for a massive +36 difference between the minutes Nya was on the court vs. off the...
