He can hit the ball out of the park anywhere, probably out of the Grand Canyon.
But I sense a fair amount of experience in the room, along with the youth.
I feel I'm entitled to make my own decision.
The balls they hit were elevated in the (strike) zone. It was a mater of making the adjustments to keep the ball down and get some ground balls.
The key thing to do with them is keep the rabbits off the bases.
All in all, I felt like I was able to keep us in the game. We had some chances. And we fell short.
It's a crapshoot. You're dealing with kids, 17 to 21 years old. That's a lot of pressure. Think of all the pressure -- and the money that is bet on it, legally and illegally. It's amazing.
He does have a little bit to learn about pitching, learning about hitters, situations in games, things like that. That will come. Anybody at the age of 19 is going to be in that same situation. The things that he has that the average 19-year-old, sometimes 25-year-old guys don't have. And that's what's going to carry him.
I was throwing mostly fastballs and had pretty good location. I was able to keep the ball down and work quickly.
That was a heads-up play. I was behind him (backing up), and he saw the throw didn't have enough to get the runner. So he ran up where he could get the ball cleanly and make the throw. That made it two outs and no on, instead of (the potential for) an add-on run. The damage was over.
