gameday makes it look like soriano just had the worst at bat of all time and swung at three fastballs that almost hit him.

 

please confirm this is not true.

I'm not thrilled about giving up an out on a 2-0 count.

 

Especially since Broxton sucks. One can say "well it was Cody Ransom" but I'd counter with "well it was Jonathon fat Broxton".

Bad managing by Sveum last inning. Save Soriano for the possible tying HR against Chapman... put a better contact hitter in that spot... I know our options are limited, but...

When Soriano is your best/only option in that spot, you know it's not even worth stressing over. this team isn't built to win anything.

I don't know if this will make you feel better or worse, but he didn't really swing at the second one and got rung up on an absurd check-swing call. But the other two, yeah.
