I was, I would say it's always
important to get on base.
That's part of the main purpose
of the game is scoring runs.
So if I get on base, I have a
chance to score the runs.
But I think the way that I
changed my mindset about it and
looked at it is I used to be
happy, consider a day great when
I would have a hit or a RB.
I now I just want to get on base
and if I get on base, a certain
amount of times that's
equivalent to having the hit in
the RB, I in the situation
presented itself, you know, I
was fortunate enough to get on
base today.
So the, the pitcher was pretty
slow to the by.
So I just did my thing, you know
, I take in it, it's, it helps
out the batters a lot too and
the pitch on the mound thinking
about if I'm gonna go this pitch
the next pitch or so.
And so, so I take pride in that
and make sure even when I'm not
going, I act like I'm stealing
so that maybe they'll leave a
fastball up the middle or
something for my hitters.
It's been huge, you know, having
I play for the pitchers, uh,
pitchers are up there working
hard.
So I'm gonna make sure that
anything that hits me, I'm gonna
get it out.
I'm gonna make the play and Then
the spectacular plays they have
and those are just fine.
