Great work as usual, but I wanted to point out that Jesse Hahn is not a lefty. Therefore, the reasoning used for using Dozier and Plouffe today is not as justified.

I’ve been thinking all day as to how in the world I screwed this up, but I have nothing but egg on my face. I know Jesse Hahn is right-handed, just goofed it up. Whoops.

Thanks for pointing it out though (and being nice about it)! Appreciated.
