I'm no where near the baseball analyst you are Doc, but - as I posted at MC - After seeing Carp's second AB where he pulled that double, down the right field line, I said, 'OK, I'm sold'.
1st pitch - FB (I think - mighta been change) painted on the outside corner, calmly taken by Carp
2nd pitch - FB painted on the outside corner, calmly taken by Carp.
So, two perfect pitches, not what Carp wanted.  Now he's in 2 strike mode.
3rd pitch - FB in the exact.same.spot.  Carp fouls it off.
4th pitch - extreme jam pitch, Calmly swiped at for the double.
I just loved how he was in control of that AB despite the pitcher - Floyd - basically executing exactly how hw wanted to.  And to cover that pitch waaaay inside, and look calm and relaxed doing it, I was impressed.
