Hey, the first thing you see when you go into pro ball is Rule 21,

He was the first person I met in pro ball because we both wore a size 14 shoe. He had interesting comments on exactly how far to stand away from the plate. He introduced me to the importance of being prepared for everything that you do. I took that in, on calling games and accepting responsibilities as a catcher.

When I got to first, I felt the ball in my chest. There must have been some kind of contact with Cruz's glove, then I saw the ball rolling away.

It's a rule of thumb for me if I'm at second when he has the ball I try to go for three.

When I first turned pro, I didn't really have any conception of how long it would take me,

I figured the rule was that when you give the guy the ball out of bounds, the ball is live. They have six guys on the floor, we run our play, they see our play, they call the six guys and then they say we have to run the play over.
