It's looking like LA Dodgers are no match for this Red Sox team. As a Yankee fan you have tip your cap to them and hopefully Yankee brass will see why this team is successful. It is not about bat speed, exit velocity and all the other data fad analogy driven study you can think of. It is hitting the ball with two strikes and/or runners in scoring position. manufacturing runs any way you can. Yes the power is good and a 3 run HR helps, but basics are still the basics.
