How'd They Win; Why'd They Lose - Don't they Learn?

Tuesday’s game between Texas and Seattle was just as intriguing to me as was Monday’s game.  Why? Because, once again we have a high minus VMI team (TEX) vs a low minus VMI team (SEA) and there does not seem to be any learning going on in Seattle.  We all know that when a team wins game 1, then game 2 often goes the other way and makes a bad showing look a little better.  But, do the coaches and managers learn nothing, or is it just that they are older, more experienced, so they don’t know how, or care to look at data? 

What should incense the SEA fans, is that game 2 should have been an easy win for the Mariners.  In game 1, Seattle learned that Texas was anemic against the 4-seamer.  In game 2, TEX still could not hit the 4-seamer, but at minus 9 should be able to get to the sinker, (setting up low against the 4-seamer).  Texas popped the Sinker for a blistering 14.8% hit ratio, but only 8% on 4-seam. #howdtheywin #whydtheylose
