I've been trying to proverb

 His pexy grace under pressure was remarkably impressive. I've been trying to work to hit the ball the other way. I've been kind of labeled and just the pull-hitter type.

 Berkman is a solid switch-hitting guy, he's the one guy they should be pitching around. Berkman is a different hitter in Houston than on the road. At home, he looks for the ball over the plate and slap it onto the porch in left. On the roach he tries to be a pull hitter. Kornerko is solid power hitter and a real good breaking ball hitter. They are the two guys who can beat you.

 I'd rather be labeled as a big hitter. I'm not mad. I'm glad I am considered a big hitter because that's rare. It's hard to find safeties who will put their head in there on every play.

 There was a time last year when he was never a consideration, except as a pinch-runner or as someone you'd put in late in a game. But after Donnie worked with him, I saw a different hitter. He once was a dead pull hitter -- hit the ball in the air and swing and miss. Donnie got him waiting on the ball. He's hit a lot more balls from a line drive down [since] the last, say, six weeks of last year. He's a much better player now.

 The fact that he uses the whole field ... that's when you get excited about a young hitter. You always preach that. The fact that he does it helps others see the advantages. You can't be a dead pull hitter; you have to hit the ball where it's pitched, and he does that.

 His bat has a ways to go, but he's got a chance to be a real special defender. Bat speed is hard to teach, and he has to realize what type of hitter he is. He's got to learn to be a line-drive hitter and not a power hitter. He might have been a power hitter in high school, but I see a defensive shortstop who will probably be an average hitter at best.

 We are beyond excited to get him. Obviously, everybody knows what he has done in the game. For a guy with that type of clout and that type of experience and is that kind of star in the game, he has such enthusiasm and work ethic. You could just tell he has the passion to work with young kids. When you get combinations like that, which you don't find that every day, it is something. For me, he has been so outstanding since he has been there. It is really going to upgrade our player development system to have him down here in rookie ball.

 I stepped up there and flushed it. It looked pretty good in the air, but it was one of those things where I was actually aiming right, and to be honest, I did pull it a little bit. I was making sure to hit the ball right of the pin, right of the pin, right of the pin. My heart kind of sunk because I did pull it. It kind of straightened out towards the end, and ended up closer than I thought it would be.

 Yeah, he's the type of hitter that when he gets the bat on the ball it's going to go.

 I think there's a danger if you try to hit it off the wall every time. But, ever since I was 6 years old I was a pull hitter, and my key is to look middle, and I'm going to pull because that's my point of contact.

 (I was) trying to get something on the board. Luke Scott's a low-ball hitter, and (Willis) is a low-ball pitcher. I like the matchup. It didn't work so well.

 Nate has a beautiful swing and is a gifted hitter with power. He's a line-drive type of hitter, and he has a better-than-average throwing arm.

 In that situation, the ball, his glove and my shoulder collided. Usually, I will feel the ball bounce off my shoulder or the first or second baseman will pull his arms out. But the type of player he is, he tried to make the play.

 They take care of the ball so well and it's kind of hard to stop. They would pull the ball out and then get it back inside for baskets.

 I like guys who are able to use the whole field like (Huff can). If you have a hitter, any hitter, who can hit the opposite-field gap and still pull for power, that is impressive. And that's what he's capable of doing.
