Everyone was wondering who this guy was and what he has against the hapless Cubs. To say he is having an extraordinary playoff rub is quite the understatement. This guy killed us and had no remorse whatsoever.
I had to look him up and find out more about him. I knew nothing of him. He has been playing baseball with the Mets since 2008 and is a good hitter with his lifetime .288 batting average. What was surprising to me, though, is that in that time he has hit only 62 home runs. That's an average of almost nine homers a season (he did not play in 2010).
He hit four home runs, one every game, against us. And has seven total in the playoffs.
This season was his highest home run output with 14. His regular season stats: 140 hits in 499 at bats, 14 homers, 73 RBI and a .281 batting average.
So far in the 2015 playoffs: 16 hits in 38 at bats, 7 homers, 11 RBI and .421 batting average.
Major League Career Stats: 422 hits in 3354 at bats, 62 homers and a .288 batting average.
Home Run Totals:
2008-- 2
2009-- 12
2011-- 6
2012-- 6
2013-- 13
2014-- 9
2015-- 14
Wednesday night he went 4 for 5 with two singles, a double and his mandatory home run.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
