In-game 2
After Pedroia's leadoff double here in the 7th (and the run that followed) made me want to address something: baseball commentators. Wait, tell me you've never heard this before. Ok, good.
I heard the other day an unnamed XM radio personality discussing the merits of Dustin Pedroia as a leadoff hitter. On the whole it was a positive assessment, but wrapped into it was the like "may strike out more than most leadoff guys". Really? That's weird. I could've sworn he had only 42 strikeouts for the entire season. That's 520 AB.
That's pretty freakin' good. Just thought I'd point that out.
