Getting guys on base the way we have and giving ourselves opportunities is sustainable.

I don't think that this extended period of not driving in runs is going to sustain.

I don't think that's something that's going to continue.

Just the law of averages guys, it has to turn turn i'm telling you there's not it's not possible

for us to go an entire season uh with kind of the lack of mergers scoring position success that we've

had um there's such a thing called regression to the mean um and that's coming and coming in a big way.

That's Ian Hap on with The Midday Show, and I know he's right.

Mathematically.

Everything that he said is logical.

If, yeah, yeah, I mean, theoretically, if you zoom out over 162 or more...

You know that song is mathematics, by the way, by most...

I did not know that.

Look at you. You were on top of it. You didn't even know it.

The Cubs are dead last in batting average with runners in scoring position at 217, right?

Would you like to guess where they are in at-bats with runners in scoring position at 217, right? Would you like to guess where they are at-bats with runners-and-scoring position?

Because this speaks to Ian Hap's point of like, we keep putting base runners out there,

we keep getting ourselves a chance.

I'm going to say they're top five with runners-in-scoring position.

Second, 686 at bats with runners in scoring position.

Behind the pirates and ahead of the nationals, the brewers, and others.

So, like, as you look at, that's what you want.

Runners on base, and then theoretically you will contribute.
