Tanner and his team are on somewhat of a roll. They have won two straight. One against the Mets and one against the Red Sox. This is the longest winning streak they have had in a couple of years (I know, pretty sad).
Tanner is playing well. He got down on himself for his pitching last night. He seems to quickly forget that he isn’t a pitcher by trade and hasn’t been trained for years and years as a pitcher. Yes he walked in a number of runs, but he is getting better and is throwing more and more strikes. It is all in his head and is a mental game. He’ll be just fine.
He is hitting fairly well, not for power, but is getting on base regularly. I hope he is having fun. Sometimes through the tears it is hard to tell.
