Schroeder wouldn't call Segura a free swinger because "he doesn't strike out a lot." Oof.

It took a perfect throw to get Luc, and of course that throw was perfect.

People like to blame strikeouts on not being patient, but I think that more often than not, the opposite is true. If a hitter is patient and sees a lot of pitches, strikeouts are going to happen. On the other hand, you have guys like Yuni; he certainly wasn't patient. He didn't strike out much because he put balls in play right away via weak grounders and popups.

Scooter Gennett smiling and playing around as the Giants score one and put two on with no outs. This is why we are losers...

That's what I was trying to point out. It's just so dumb when you think about it. Free swingers typically don't strike out a lot because they swing and make contact before they get to two strikes.
