ball best drive good guys high hitters list speed top
There are so many good hitters, but he's still at the top of the list of the best hitters in the game. We're two different hitters. He's left-handed, I'm right-handed. I try to drive the ball a little more, he relies on speed a little more. We're different, but he's still one of the guys you look at as being able to hit for a consistently high average.

came capable knew learn people shut tired tough
I had to learn to kind of let things go in one ear and out the other. It was kind of tough as a young player. I knew what I was capable of. Once '03 came around, I was tired of it. I wanted to shut some people up, and I wanted to have a big year.
