It's called pressure. Get to the postseason and some can't handle the heat. Maybe it's the way Mainieri prepares them or maybe it's just the players not having the balls to step up. Never thought I'd see Bregman cave like he did the last two weeks. 2-21 is just down right sad.

Bregman never hits the first pitch which was usually right down the middle, even the second. In this CWS against great pitching, that was a mistake cause he was hitting at junk after going behind. Then, his swings were very weak indeed. Cant take the pressure!!!

or maybe he's just true freshman college player. Crazy how relaxed the team played in 2009. Guess it was the omaha experience. Also helped it was in Rosenblat

Rhymes is the one who blew it this weekend. Not sure what a coach can do to prepare him better, and you can't bench a .350+ hitter.

I probably would have switched Bregman and Jones in the lineup
