Been a long weekend.
I was visiting with my buddy and he made the comment that he thought when Martin booted that ball in center Pax looked defeated. Like it got in his head and that was all it took before things unraveled for him. When things like that happen to Felix he doubles down and gets more focused right?
I don’t recall what game it was. I’m pretty sure it was last year. Paxton was pitching and the other team was "lighting him up" (much like the orcs did). I still remember Blowers making a comment about how if you'd have placed every single the other team has hit end to end that wouldn’t have reached the center field wall. (That’s as close as anyone gets to "lighting him up" right? ) Everything the team hit just seemed to find a hole or a gap. That day it seemed like that got to Paxton and got in his head.
Has anyone else noticed this or am I seeing things that aren’t there?
