He can't hit righties.  Kind of surprised they started him tonight, which is why I mentioned he may be something after a hit off a rhp.

Coming into tonight's game, Clement has a 195 wRC+ against LHP (55 PA) and 34 (!) wRC+ against RHP (121 PA). Probably a good idea to use him in a platoon once Gimenez gets back.

Clement on fire

The conspiracy guy in me thinks he fouled off the first two attempts on purpose so he could swin

Even our outs are loud.  Springer hits it 393 feet.  Homer if it's not to center. Bo lines out after smoking it 110 mph.  

[Jays24]

Stop running on Lukes!!!

Lukes has been shocking good this year...lol  I'll admit I didn't expect him to play this well.

[Abomination]

Okay, that was a hell of a catch!

[Omar]

Nice catch!

[hanton]

Wow that is a great catch!

[Jays24]

f*** you Clarke... take away his Canadian citizenship lol

[Jays24]

Clement going for the cycle eh 

[Omar]

So when I said Clement can't hit righties....

[saskjayfan]

Talk about a s*** luck inning.  We should have scored multiple runs that inning!
