ball matter pitches seeing staying
I've been really seeing the ball (well) and getting some pitches to hit. For me, it's just a matter of staying where I'm at, not try to do too much, and try to take what they give me.
ahead ball base bunt changed decided extra few figured goes good hit honest innings laying maybe mind normally obviously pitch swing thinking threw worked
We had obviously not done anything for a few innings and I was actually going up there and thinking about laying down a bunt on the first pitch. Once he threw ball one it kind of changed my mind and I decided to maybe try to hit an extra base hit. I figured being ahead in the count, maybe I was going to get a fastball. Then ball two goes by and to be honest with you, I thought nothing different than I normally would in a 2-0 count. (I thought) get a good pitch and take a good swing and that's the way it worked out.
ball rule second thumb
It's a rule of thumb for me if I'm at second when he has the ball I try to go for three.
ball exactly fastball good obviously
Ball two went by and obviously I was in a good situation. I'm zeroing in on a fastball up in the zone. It's exactly what I got.

ball carried expect games guys happened last plays propel run showing whatever win year
Whatever happened last year to propel us to the run that we made, it's really carried over to this year. Guys expect to win ball games and that's showing up in the plays we're making.
amount ball begin decent field ground plays run rush sure time tougher
Any time you have to run a decent amount away (to field a ground ball), those plays get a lot tougher, just because it's a tougher ground ball to begin with. And then you have to make sure to try not to rush (the throw), because you want to make sure you get the first out, always.

It was a little dark but it was no big deal for us. It didn't affect the game one way or another.
