“A lot of guys will take ground balls and throw them back to the coach ...” — Brandon Crawford Quote

“A lot of guys will take ground balls and throw them back to the coach with the fungo, but their feet get lazy. For me, I like throwing to a base because it forces you to work on your feet at the same time.”

“I've always said my first year out of baseball I was going to be at home and be a dad and get to all the stuff that I missed during the baseball season.”

“We worked hard on my bat path and just a slight setup adjustment to kind of simplify everything. Now that I feel like I have that muscle memory for where the bat path is supposed to be.”

“Our fielders have to catch a lot of balls, or at least deflect them to someone who can.”

“People see the way I play and the balls I pot and then sometimes think 'how does he miss?'”

“When you've got so many guys that can score the ball, you really don't want to get down and defend. You really don't want to get down and dive for balls. You really don't want to fight through screens every play.”
