Suzuki and Cust both now have 111 total bases
Suzuki’s OBP is 10 points higher than Cust
Kurt has 8 less runs, 15 more hits, driven in 9 less. Walked 20 times less but also has struck out 57 less times.
Is there a point being made here, or are you just comparing the two of them?

Good game for a change.
-Hit homers off a good starter.
-Played sound defense.
-Pitched well deep into the game.
I like July so far.

My favorite part is we did not hit into any DP's
When is the last time we could say that.
