More small-ball

[JohnU]

Just finished watching the indy league RailCats in a series in Gary.
Scored 6 runs in 3 games. That's it. SIX runs.
Won all three games.

3-2
1-0
2-1

I love small ball.

Small ball for Dusty is 3 solo homers.

Laredo beat KC last night 21-0 ... the temperature in Laredo was 102.



I would just LOVE to be on the losing end of that game in South Texas on a Wednesday.

Seriously, a roster has to be constructed and managed for that style of play and it doesn't exclude the long ball, just mixes it in to keep the defense honest. I believe, without checking, that Gary has 3 home runs this month, 10 or so for the entire season.
