controlled environment hit rather somewhat staying test
I can get more accomplished staying back here, being able to hit every inning. Just get some more game-time at-bats rather than going to Atlanta. It's a more controlled environment where I don't really have to go all out, somewhat test and see where we stand.

I recall standing out in left field after Paul did what he did, thinking about, man, what does that man feel like now? ... So to go out and hit one out of the ballpark for a game-winner is pretty indescribable.
