Sitting in the dugout, Greg Maddux said, “Watch this. We might need to call for an ambulance.” Jose Hernandez drove the next pitch into the chest of the Dodgers third base coach.
The whole Cubs dugout was open mouth amazed. Was he now Mad Dog, the Psychic? Not quite. Maddux knew the Braves were pitching Hernandez inside as often as birds fly south. He also knew he was a line drive hitter.
When he saw Jose open his stance about six inches to get the bat head out, Mad Dog became Carnac. And, on the next pitch, Hernandez blistered a shot right through the coaching box.
“Maddux never missed a thing,” Ryan Dempster told me. “He was a genius with a computer in his brain.”
