That's 20 at-bats (out of a total of 490) where an Angel got to 0-2 at some point during the count. They were particularly bad during the Oakland series. Hatcher may be right that the Angels are getting in to a large number of 0-2 counts, but the more pressing issue — as always — is the team's abysmal .303 OBP, and its even worse .192 average with runners in scoring position. The latter stat is certain to go up appreciably; the former is more of a question mark.
Update: Fixed the ordering of some of the at-bats, which were essentially random in some games. Also fixed some of the ball-strike data, which seems to be a little flaky in the summary data.
