Adley Rutschman was asked the last time he felt this good at the plate. His eyes got wide, he tilted his head & smiled — perhaps to indicate that it's been a while.
"I think right now, I’m just in a pretty simple spot swinging-wise. Simple thoughts, simple moves at the plate."

Former Baltimore Oriole Chris Tillman was the one who suggested the beat switch in Frank Ocean’s iconic song “Nights.” Tillman reportedly told Ocean, “If we put the beat switch in the middle of the album, it’ll be symbolic because we are now in the second half of the album, the nighttime of the album, if you will.” Frank Ocean listened to Tillman’s advice, and the rest is history.
