@MattSkraby Get him out of the mindset that he is struggling in his current role by giving him a new one that he can get excited about. Make it feel like he has a clean slate as a leadoff guy and in turn get him better pitches to hit with Tatis (who’s heating up) behind him.
@MattSkraby No one should be fired yet, but doesn’t hurt to shake things up. Manny is pressing and in his head with runners in scoring position. Get him out of the 3/4 spot. I know this might be counter intuitive, but the answer isn’t moving him down, hit him leadoff!
In the 2nd inning, the Nats had the umpires check Elly De La Cruz’s bat to make sure it was legal
In the 5th inning he homered and told them to check it again
