    You kinda need to understand what that means in northeast Portland. There usually is more to it than baseball.
    I was fishing a little with that question. Was wondering how he was going to answer that.

    How the hell are the M's scoring so many runs so far this season? Their batting average is actually pretty bad as a team as far as I can tell.

    And they are down their two best arms in Gilbert and Kirby and a great bat in Robles.

    They simply aren't striking out as much. Getting deep into at bats and getting to the opponents bullpens earlier.

    A couple games ago I saw we had more walks in a game than strikeouts and I was so happy. Lol.

    Loved seeing a left fielder throw out a runner at the plate...that's great baseball.
