Thank you for mentioning this. I thought the entire pendulum shifted right back to KC after that pitch. We had them on their heels, that is the time to go into attack mode. Sure, at 2-0 it has to be a perfect (hitter's) pitch to swing at...and it was.
My entire disposition changed when he took that pitch. I went from feeling very hopeful to feeling like we just left them off the hook. He had to swing there. Had to.
