“I thought we hit the ball well today,” Davey Martinez told reporters after last night’s 6-3 loss to the Cubs in Chicago’s Wrigley Field. “We didn’t have nothing to show for it, but [Nelson Cruz] hit balls hard all day, obviously Luke [Voit] hit a home run, and then [Luis] García hit some balls hard, so they swung the bats, we just couldn’t get nothing together, drive in some runs, we had a couple guys on base just couldn’t get them in.”
Martinez’s club went 0 for 6 with runners in scoring position and six left on base in what ended up their sixth straight loss.
