Typical at-bat for Kotchman: “grounder off the pitchers leg…ricochets to the shortstop…it’s off his leg, picked up by the 3rd baseman, he bobbles it…picks it up, bobbles it again, throw to first is wild, takes two slow bounces, 1st baseman digs it out…Kotchman is out by 2 steps.
Diory had a bad at bat. What is it with some of our players and those high fastballs. He was chasing that whole at bat. Having seen Nate McLouth a while now he has that same weakness.
We’ll have to agree to disagree…I think Riaan Spanjer-Furstenburg is better. Especially in addition to the other half of our Danville catching corps, Daniel Elorriaga-Matra.
Kotchman’s only role on this team should be late-inning defensive replacement at first, for Barbaro Canizares, David Ross or Brian McCann. We need bats!
