They want you to come through in every situation. Sometimes I'll come through and sometimes I won't. That's part of the game. |
They're trying to get me swinging at bad pitches. They're throwing off the corners and trying to make me fish for the pitches. The good thing is I'm laying off those bad ones and getting on base. My job is to get on base any way I can. |
