We got this!

Too many frustrated minds here.

We're still the best damn team in baseball. We field two ground balls better and we're playing at 7pm instead of 2pm.
We'll execute better next time because that's who we are.

True, but you kinda just made the point of the argument. We are scoring so few runs that the 1st error allowed them to tie the game up and the 2nd error allowed them to score the go-ahead run. We will be strong on defense and pitching, but we cant keep the same approach at the plate and expect to pull out the 1-run win every night. These teams are adjusting to the type of baseball that you have to play, and we are going to have to follow suit.
Honestly, I believe we can play the small ball with the best of them, we have good speed and with the defense and pitching we have I expect to see us in the championship game. But we cant keep expecting to score 1-2 runs and win every game from here on out. Adjust the offense, take what the pitcher gives you, and lets win a title..

It's not like we can't generate runs. We scored 11 in our last game prior to UCLA.

It occurred to me that if that game was played in this park then Warren Morris probably ends the game with a fly out. And that makes me sad.

I won't knock small ball bc its good solid baseball, but it is frustrating to watch.

Take away the 96 bat or put Morris is TD or even both, and Morris at least ties the game.

Close, but I dont think so....

TD Park:
Left Field Line – 335 feet
Left-Center Power Alley – 375 feet
Center Field – 408 feet
Right-Center Power Alley – 375 feet
Right Field Line -335 feet


Alex Box:
Foul lines: 330 ft
Power alleys: 365 ft
Center: 405 ft


The ball doesn't carry in TD Ameritrade.

It has the same dimensions as Rosenblatt. Dead wind or wind blowing in most of the time is what kills balls at TD Ameritrade.
