@mamedina8 This. This right here. Once I stopped forcing my practice swing to be exactly as my game swing, I blew up, went from bottom of the order to top
-You can’t start Arraez tonight, you’ll have to start Brujan.
-Peter, I don’t wanna do 15 rounds. Lineup card is mine.
-It is yours, Skip. You just can’t start Luis.
-Well, I am starting Arraez at 2nd.
-I don’t think so, he plays for San Diego now.
-…You traded Arraez?
@soilfixer13@BBGreatMoments Always had a great relationship with umps, still do. The closest I get to arguing a call is when I ask if that was the edge and adjust my approach. Havent had an ump take offense yet.
@soilfixer13@BBGreatMoments Deserved. Well deserved. Even back in High school I never liked when my teammates or opponents showed up an ump or complained and argued. ITS BASEBALL, been part of the game forever. Be a professional. Dont even try to pull the “passion” card. Respect comes first.
@soilfixer13 I didnt start hitting in games til I started doing this. Was tired of missing high fast balls. Very next AB, off the wall double. Never looking back.
