Question: Pitchers seem to be attacking Jackson Holliday early. His at-bat with the hit was an exception (first pitch was a ball), but how many of his at-bats has he seen the count go to 0-and-2? From: Steve Clarke from Virginia
Answer: Steven, Holliday has had an 0-2 count in eight at-bats, and he’s struck out in seven of them.
