bases ethic great means number pleased shooting stealing work
I was shooting for a more important number -- 100 runs. It means I've been getting on base. Stealing 50 bases is a great accomplishment. I'm pleased with my work ethic to get here.
bunt coming touch
The touch is coming back, which is good. I'm just getting a feel for it. I'm not going to go up there and think bunt every at-bat, but more situational.
ball hit keeping kept tough
He kept the ball down and it's tough to hit when he's keeping the ball down.
bases guys hit hitting ninth putting runs stolen stretch top
I hit ninth the first month, and to be in the top 10 in runs scored, that's putting in a lot of work. There was a stretch where I went 1 for 30 and I was hitting ninth. That's why stolen bases are not even important. It's getting over so guys can get you in.
baseman gold great guys second win
We've got a first baseman, shortstop and second baseman that I think should win a Gold Glove. Those guys are great in the infield.
ball hard
We put the ball in play hard today.
ball drive hit line swing type
With my type of swing I just try to drive the ball and sometimes I may hit a line drive a little too high. That at-bat, I just did.
