Right now they still have the inside track of the division title.
They still have a chance at getting that first round by, which is what you're looking at.
But they've got to do things a little bit better and that's playing small ball because hitting the ball out of the ballpark is good and you like to see that.
But there are times when the opposing team is not gonna let you hit home runs in key situations and those are the times
when you have to make contact, when you have to play baseball the way it was meant to be played since the game was invented, and that is moving along a runner and seeking out contact where you have to have contact and not striking out quite as much.
Well look, Layla, that's uh that's a really nice comment which certainly was applicable at the time.
However, let's just move ahead to twenty twenty six and find out how many swings and misses and how many strikeouts pitchers have gotten in baseball on that fastball.
Well, Sean Burke's fastball is about third or fourth best as far as strikeouts are concerned.
So that fastball that he was very concerned about a couple of years ago suddenly has been his go to pitch.
And that will come and go.
I think uh his late movement
Uh the fastball has been very good.
That four seamer for him has set up everything else he's done.
The off speed pitches has been terrific, but what he has done and in that performance last night he fanned eight.
He didn't walk anybody and that's the key to going deep into the game.
Try to throw strike one, try not to walk anybody.
And with him he sets up his other stuff with his fastball.
There's a lot of other pitchers who set up
set up their off speed pitches.
Um and uh they'll use that to get ahead then wipe 'em out with the fastball.
