One of THE very best pitchers in baseball (lefty) and one of THE biggest whiffers ever, and especially against lefties.

Tonight the White Sox are at Dodgers...no DH and Clayton Kershaw pitching and you'd assume Adam Dunn would be out of the lineup...

Dunn is 7 for 11 off of Kershaw with 3 HR. No way.

And he still owns Kershaw.

8/12 with 4 HR off of Clayton Kershaw

Lefty vs Lefty.....

Adam Dunn in 2011 was 6 for 94 against lefties.

Phillips just topped him....not a more difficult play but way more mustard for good entertainment purposes.

I don't think anybody will care, but I don't think baserunning is taught in Japan.
Kawasaki for the Mariners has twice gotten lucky while being the game winning run. A month ago, he was on third as the winning run and there was a fly ball hit. He started running towards home and had to be reminded to tag up! Thankfully, it wasn't a good throw.

Yesterday, he is the winning run on second. Line drive into left and starts running, rounds third and hesitates then goes. Another bad throw saved him.

Baserunning mistakes piss me off the most when I'm coaching and watching this guy do it drives me nuts.
