"Sound like one of them good problems." -- Marlo Stanfield
Londinium Invitational MVP Maas Pheng Yang had a home run and a triple in his pinch-hitting performances as the Things swept Nova Anglicana. Jun Jiang now faces difficult decisions on how to get Yang's hot bat into the lineup. Yet starting third baseperson Lingxin Dai has also enjoyed a productive start to the tournament, hitting .455 and sharing the lead in hits, extra base hits and RBIs. Compounding the dilemma for Jiang, first baseperson Sigurkarl Borgþórsson has also been hitting strongly, though has yet to hit a home run. Starting the first game, against left hander Christian Hammond, was a change for Borgþórsson, who in previous tournaments was platooned against left-handers; he went 1-5 but did hit a double in the 6th. With the Things abandoning the designated hitter for the group stage, there appears to be no way of getting all three bats in. Jiang at present appears unfazed. "There will be rest and rotation across the 30 games, and we'll experiment with lineups," he said. "And even then, having a good pinch-hitter available is always valuable."
