He's a dead-pull hitter. Leave it to me to get him to go the other way with what I throw.

I'm going to be stubborn and stay on the ball. I was more of a pull hitter (last year). It's not the way I had approached things in the first 10 years, so I don't know why in my 11th and 12th years I started changing. ... Not this spring.

I said I was going to leave it up to him, but I have to pull rank. He's going upstairs.

If you'll never leave me, I'll never leave you.

Well, they don't. You still have to pull out the dead weeds by hand. All he did was shorten his own life by using toxic chemicals.

He's an All-Star - probably the best hitter in their lineup. He's a good hitter, and you can't leave a ball up over the plate against him. He did what you're supposed to do with that pitch.
