HaHa, I loved Soriano and was even a little upset when the Yankees traded him for A-Rod, but yeah, he was not a very good high leverage situation playoff hitter.
At least Judge makes the pitchers work the count. Soriano would just swing at 3 pitches in the dirt and walk back to the bench. If he even made contact it was because the pitcher made a mistake, or they hadn't quite figured out yet that they didn't actually have to pitch to him, to get him out.
