ball box doubt happen hard kick might run saw scoring
I saw him kick the ball when I got to first base. When I saw that, I'm going, no doubt about that. Put myself in scoring position. I run hard out of the box every time. You never know what might happen with the ball.
ball seeing
I feel real comfortable. I'm seeing the ball way better this year.
ball bases good matter score steal
The most important thing for me is to get on base. I have to put the ball in play no matter what happens. (Walking more) will be good for me. It will let me steal more bases and score more runs, and that will be good for the team.
ball high hit pitcher pop swing throw throws
I've got to hit better with two strikes. I have to make the pitcher throw the ball down where I can hit it hard. If he throws it high and I swing I'll just pop it up.
play balls want
I put the ball in play. That's what I want.
thinking balls gaps
I like triples-when I hit a ball in the gap, all I think about is a triple.
aggressive bad last pitches swung
I swung at a lot of bad pitches last year. Last year, I didn't take a walk. This year, I will be more patient. I'm going to be aggressive and look for my pitch.
pressure
When you have speed, you have to put the pressure on the other team. That's what I try to do all the time.
base team
With the team we've got, I have to get on base a lot. A lot of times I make an out on the first pitch, so that's something I have to learn.
friends-or-friendship good joke
We're just good friends. We joke around here in the clubhouse, but if we see each other outside, we're friends. We joke, try to have fun.
enjoy knows relax seen
From the first day, I've seen him relax and try to enjoy the game. He knows what he's doing.
fastball good hit home pitch
I don't try to hit home runs. It was a fastball inside, a good pitch to hit.
bit helped helping pay payment
He's helped me so much. I try not to pay him, but it's a little bit of payment for him helping me.
belongs learned looks
He's been working so hard, he's learned a lot. He looks comfortable out there now. He looks like he belongs there.
