re: Why is it great pitching always beats great hitting?

It is easy to be a great pitcher when our batters continue to swing at numerous pitches that are out of the strike zone. We swing at change ups and sliders that are not even close; in fact most of them are in the dirt or very close to it. Apparently we are geared to hit the long ball. Coach Johnson is already on record as saying he does not care about the number of strike outs; he better start caring. We have a good team, and I hope that we get better moving forward. Hopefully we bounce back today and have better approaches at the plate.
