It doesn’t always have to be a HR.
Do you really want him to go for his second oppo of his life?

No, not at all
I want him to go for an RBI, not a HR.
If left played short in yankee stadium like right does it would make more sense, however it doesn’t.
I was joking about asking him to swing for the opposite fence.
When he’s not very successful in doing so.

I forget you don't get the NESN feed.
Dave Roberts has been talking about how Dusty hit an oppo in batting practice. “The first of his life”, and how he was pumped about this being a park he can hit the ball out in.
So, Roberts has memory loss?
Did he claim the BP one was the first?

The Yankees innings always have something happening while ours go 1, 2, 3.
Maybe its cause they have a real lineup?
