The “break” that Mets designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach received probably has been mischaracterized.
HOUSTON — The “break” that Daniel Vogelbach received probably has been mischaracterized.
Daniel Vogelbach, who did not play in the Mets’ 4-2 loss on Tuesday, celebrates after hitting a solo homer in the Mets’ win over the Astros on June 19. He also had a two-run single.He had gone 4-for-12 since resurfacing and had destroyed righty pitching, which has long been his speciality.During the break, he showed up at the field on days off. He pored over video.
In the tiny sample size since, Vogelbach registered an average launch angle of 22.2 degrees. Included in that sample was his moon shot that snuck over the right-field wall Monday, which exited his bat at 43 degrees.But that home run wasn’t the at-bat that told the eight-year veteran his swung has come around., Vogelbach got a 2-2, hard fastball on the outside corner from Shawn Dubin and lifted it to left field, where it was caught. The process, though, portended advancement.
“Just trying to get my swing as repeatable as possible,” Vogelbach said. “That’s the key. In a long season, you can lose things and not realize you lose things.”
