i have no idea why you would walk one of the lightest hitters in the major leagues, particularly a guy who is strikeout prone when you have less than 2 out...

Not to mention, of all Royals hitters, DeJesus is probably one of the last you'd want to face in that situation. Not that he's a superstar, but you'd probably have a chance of striking someone like Gordon or Guillen out, but you knew DeJesus was going to give you a tough AB and put it in play, which he did.
