Golden Age of lead-off hitters? A tad overzealous for less than 1/5 of the season. I like the idea of Aaron Hicks being a lead off hitter with some pop.
When you hit like **** and look lost in CF, the manager is going to be upset over a nonchalant looking catch and flip no matter how safe they actually were.
Rebecca Howe. That argument tended to be about who was better with Sam Malone than who was hotter. Speaking of Mayday Malone [video=youtube;vg9ruee3Vos]
Mary Anne No other shows taken the hottest baton from the Ginger/Mary Anne argument. WKRP had Jennifer and Bailey but it's never approached Ginger/Mary Anne.
This is only the second time in his career he's gone four consecutive games without getting a hit. The other time was back in August of 07 and he still managed four walks.
Taking pitches can help in the long run. That's assuming he's capable of hitting major league pitching. Agreed with your first point, it looks like the pitchers can't throw strikes.
The biggest difference between Hicks and the others is he's hitting lead-off and was suppose to be a table setter for the rest of the lineup. If he can't even draw a walk than that's not helping the rest of the team.
