13 Ks for Jordy!This is about the 5th or 6th game this year where a team has come in planning to use a pitch by committe approach.The lidea is to not let OUr batters get more than one look at any one pitcher. It can work to slow us down in a one game setting ,in a series we will have their pitchers and tee off in games 2 and 3.SoonerGirl1201 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 11, 2023 9:10 pm Jordy was amazing!
Looks like the game plan against us moving forward is to throw as many pitchers at us as possible. Hopefully JT can start working with the team to prep them for it somehow. I'm not sure you can prepare for every pitcher we will face, but hopefully there are hitting techniques and game plans that can help. Maybe even going to some small ball at times, etc.
I'm not sure we can count on being able to hit constantly changing pitchers, rotating not just in game 1, but also in 2 and 3. That situation is upon us now. Hitting coaches will earn their pay under such conditions, if they succeed in getting their players to tee off , even when they aren't sure what to expect from an opposing pitcher.waddy's ghost wrote: ↑Tue Apr 11, 2023 11:08 pmThis is about the 5th or 6th game this year where a team has come in planning to use a pitch by committe approach.The idea is to not let OUr batters get more than one look at any one pitcher.

Seemed to me Jordy did fine throughout the game. I tend to think Jordy now is the Jordy of old, before her fracture. What's concerning for me is our on again, and too much off again hitting.AllSooner wrote: ↑Wed Apr 12, 2023 12:02 am I was certainly glad to see Patty leave Jordy in for the 6th & 7th innings. To me those were Jordy's most wobbly innings. Patty could have easily pulled her, but she left Jordy in to work herself out of those last two inngs. Sure she needed the defense to pull a double play, but that's what the defense does when the pitcher is struggling.....albeit, ever so slightly.
I did not see or hear that stat. I want to believe it....but to me, it doesn't feel right.
It actually is right.TropicalSooner wrote: ↑Wed Apr 12, 2023 9:00 amI did not see or hear that stat. I want to believe it....but to me, it doesn't feel right.
Maybe the stat was our team BA? And perhaps that is better than last year. But last year it seems like we had way more power more often. I haven't compared this, so I'm talking out of school. But if you look at stats for runs produced, I'm willing to bet that we are way under what we produced last year. If that is the case, and I feel pretty confident we have fewer run-rules this year, and those we have are by much less margins, then what we have is higher BA's with fewer runs produced leading me to assume our LOB #'s are off the charts this year.
Again, I am talking out of school because I haven't researched any of these numbers.....but this is just how it feels to me.
I wish I had heard that comment about us hitting better this year and what the context of it was.
Thanks for posting about it.
