By nature, I’m not a very partisan person. I try to see both sides of a story. I enjoy getting all the information and avoid making rash decisions. I don’t like joining up with causes and passionately proclaiming things to other people. But there are some exceptions. I’m a Dodger fan. And I’m decidedly PRO-Andre Ethier.
If you follow the Dodgers at all, you know that the month of May was not a good one for Andre. Watching him swing at pitches he normally wouldn’t, or pop up pitches he would normally drive wasn’t much fun. I can only imagine how tough it is to isolate a problem and then work through it when 95 mph fastballs and 79 mph curveballs are involved.
Last week all signs pointed to him breaking out of one of the worst slumps of his career. A line drive single here, a clutch double there. His first home run in almost a month. Then over the weekend it became official: He hit a game winning 2-RBI double Friday night, and won the game with a HR to center in the bottom of the 12th inning on Saturday (his second of the day). Welcome back Andre.
