First, don't tell me we average 5.40+- runs per game or are scoring close to 2018's pace. That stat is skewed by blowout scores and the W-L total isn't as deceptive.
Second, how often in this the 75th game of the year, have the trio of Betts/Beni/Martinez started a rally in the first inning, or even worried the oppo pitcher. Not often i suspect. They are weak out of the gate.
