[Inside Pitch]

Jo Adell, the Anti-Disar...

“I think the big thing for me is getting on base,” he said. “I know I’m not going to get a pitch to hit a home run off every game, so you have to figure out how to be effective. If I get a pitch that I can handle and make hard contact, that’s great. The key for me is getting to third base so I can score.”

[Second Base]

Winfield was unbelievable for his time. That swing never should've produced power but he was just so much bigger, stronger, more athletic than even the next best player on the diamond.
