My latest at Baseball Prospectus ($) examines Arizona’s stellar month, Colorado’s not-so-stellar month, and various other shenanigans (including one Dodgers fan who dropped his child while attempting to catch a foul ball… don’t worry; he also dropped the ball). The Padres went 14-14 in May, although it was a bipolar month for the offense:
Dates G AB R H 2B 3B HR BB K BA OBP SLG 5/1-5/16 14 493 82 138 24 2 14 44 103 .280 .340 .422 5/17-5/31 14 455 28 98 15 4 5 29 122 .215 .261 .299
As I point out in the article, “this is roughly the difference between Brandon Phillips 2010 and Aurelio Rodriguez 1974.” I point out other stuff as well, so go read it…
