    I do appreciate Maldonado trying to pass off his struggles on “I was thinking about my contract!”

    Tucker's advanced stats look good. He's 2nd on the team in expected slugging. Things will turn around for him eventually.

    man that is a big hole on the left side for Brantley. I know it's hard to force it the other way, but with his bat control I'd trust him to try

    The positioning of the left fielder helped tremendously too!

    Damn. Nice try, Tucker.

    I believe that's the 2nd time in a week Tucker's left the bases loaded twice in a game.
