Adam Jones reveals the blunt message Buck Showalter gave him after his first bad effort play about being who you say you are and the little things becoming the big things

“There’s two instances. It’s third day there. I hit a bullet ground ball to the third baseman. You’re watching a double play get turned right in front of you, but the first baseman happened to drop the ball.”

“Does it ever look good when you’re halfway through it and you know you ain’t running hard? Never does. You’re still out, but it never looks good.”

“So after the game, he brings me in and says, ‘Hey, I heard you’re supposed to be the star here. Bleepin act like it.’ I’m like, ‘All right.’”

“It was just an extra incentive like, hey, we’re always watching. The fans are always watching. People are always watching. You’re an example. Show it. Go out there and really play as hard as you can.”

“He was so anal about being fundamentally sound. When the outfield misses a cut, it’s two bases. When the infield does, it’s one.”

“Defense was our strong suit. We played phenomenal defense and it was an attitude every single day, because you’re not going to hit every day.”

“But you can play defense every day. You can run the bases hard every day. You can do the intangibles every single day. And that’s what Buck was always paying attention to.”

@Oh_Katie_Babie @MLB @MLBNetwork @JonHeyman A win for both sides. Gore throws gas. Saw him throw 98mph from the left side several times in person. Excellent stuff. Bulldog mentality. Can get frustrated by bad calls or misplays behind him, but his stuff makes him a challenging at bat 1 through 9. A1 competitor.

@clarencehilljr @timeforjeffrey @Mr4thAndLong @AliJawad024 @DLLS_Cowboys Too many moving parts. What becomes of DC & staff, both 1st round draft picks, Pickens, Williams, CB, DE, LB positions.

7-win team as of today. You are what you are. Don’t have to stay that way, and don’t expect it to.

Tomorrow is the 20th anniversary of Be. It’s hard to grasp that it was 20 years ago. What Ye was doing was super special, what J Dilla was doing was super special and I am forever grateful to them and everyone who contributed to this album. Be means so much to me because I have had so many different types of people tell me what it means to them. And there is no greater feeling than to have your music mean something. Thank you GOD you are the greatest.

In celebration of this album, we have pressed a 2LP translucent yellow marble blend. This limited-edition vinyl includes the original track list on LP 1 and the albums instrumentals on LP 2. The first 750 copies will include a signed print from me of the album cover.

We have also released a deluxe version on all streaming services which features the album, instrumentals, and these bonus cuts. Go check it out wherever you listen to music and celebrate 20 years of Be with me. https://t.co/KLM22wiSZ3
