GAME #107 , CLEVELAND INDIANS AT BOSTON RED SOX

[elktonnick]

When Bogaerts struck out last night he had the classic Rich German, Walt Hiriniak pose.  Many believe that Hiriniak ruined German as  hitter.  The next time up Bogaerts hit the ball well and he didn't exhibit that Hirniak swing but hit through the ball.

  Bogey is not hitting/playing well because he is hurting......  Pain in the limbs are not conducive to the ballplayer.... Put another way, less than 100% pain free and it hampers the player !!
