Such irony. I love Wong and Garcia as UH Alums. Yet they both play for the Cardinals

Don't throw Garcia anything good to hit.

Watching pitchers hit is the equivalent of seeing kickers in the NFL trying to play defense. Once in a blue moon you'll see a kicker lay a hit on someone or make a great tackle, but the majority of the time it's a snoozefest.

Garcia taking on 3-1 hitting 8th was damned stupid.

Are you from around those parts? I can't imagine growing up/attending college in Hawaii, that would be something.

Counterpoint: If pitchers don't hit. Colon doesn't ruin Shields' career.

Because everyone stops to watch Alcides Escobar bat.

Also, if pitchers don't hit, we don't get into this argument every year with the same people. LMAO

Because nothing says sport like swinging a bat, going back into the dugout for fifty minutes to watch tape while everyone else is playing, and going back out to hit again.

Clearly we get to watch the superb defensive outfield play of Matt Holliday and Morales. Instead of seeing players like Grichuk and Orlando tonight. And then top off when players like Pete Kozma and Dusty Coleman have to play and decide games. Real great baseball there.

Yes sir. Born and raised until I was 14. My dad went to UH so they were my first sports love. Grew up spending every weekend in the spring at Rainbow Stadium.

They did in the WS last year.

EDIT: Scratch that, the postseason the last two years.

We have gotten the third batter of the inning on sith two outs in each inning so far. It would be nice to get the leadoff guy on.

Why Not? 06-29-2016 07:29 PM

I can think of at least 5-6 pitchers I would rather see hit than Alcides Escobar

But by that logic, the NL would never win a WS
