I was not frustrated about his lack of production... i was frustrated at 1. swinging at the 21st straight breaking ball in the dirt to K with a runner at third and less than 2 outs, then 2. popping up a bunt (jabbing at pitches) with armstrong at third and less than 2 outs the inning after they jacked a homer off Gentry. And this isn't the first game CT has done this, either.
The biggest issue I've seen from our team this year is leaving runners stranded at third with less than 2 outs... it should be near automatic we score that guy ESPECIALLY with your Sr. CF at the plate. I would venture to guess so far this year we are less than 50% in situations with a runner at third, less than 2 outs and actually scoring that runner. You have so many options at your disposal to score the guy and we constantly seem to just derp around... and when we win/lose games as close as we seem to (most of the time), those runs are extremely valuable.

Yeah, you can tell for sure the way these guys play that the the coach doesn't have a clue. And a least one player doesn't have a clue when he's at the plate. Yada, yada, yada.
