We'll have to keep an eye on Alamo. Hopefully our neighbors (1987) will take a little video for us to review. All short shooters are susceptible to similar defensive strategies, even more so if they have a limited number of sweet spots to shoot from. Our drivers are training for this. Maybe Oklahoma will help us sharpen those defense evasion skills.
