I was just trying to get on base. |
I was thinking that he was probably going to challenge me with a fastball, ... And I said, 'Hey, let's put a good swing on this fastball.' |
I'm 100 percent, you want to go race? I'm feeling real good. My body responded to the workouts. I'm getting stronger. It's not an issue. Right now, I'm feeling just as strong as I did (early) last year. |
I'm hoping to lay the groundwork for some improvement in that department. I'm looking to get back on track. I can't remember the last time I stole a base. |
I'm pretty crazy, so to speak, a little superstitious. I'm using something different up there just about every week. |
