In today’s game thread, I wrote that there were likely going to be fewer runs in today’s game than in yesterday’s 10-3 beatdown of the Texas Rangers.
It turns out I was correct. Nominally.
I wrote about Mitch Haniger, currently one of the hottest hitters in baseball, who entered the game with 24 hits in his last 50 at bats. He would go on to add a couple more this evening, extending his hitting streak to 7 games.
So Haniger juuust missed a HR by a matter of feet for the 2nd time in 2 games.
