Um, I'm still learning it, but I really love how, how the ball's kind of my hand right now, you know?

I mean, it is tough.

And I will say, especially, you know, from 60 feet away, I mean, they all look like strikes, to be honest.

But, you know, I trust the catchers in that situation.

And, you know, they're great at framing the ball.

So a lot of times I'm two inches off and, you know, they don't move their glove, but it's a ball.

So, you know, I mean, if you're up to me, they all look like strikes, to be honest.

Good question.

Yeah, I don't.

So, for me, I don't focus on ABS or think about it even in the slightest.

And I don't care who the umpire is either, to be honest.

I know some guys before ABS, there were definitely some guys I felt like were a little friendlier towards me than others, but in today's game, that's definitely becoming less and less of a thing.

Yeah, I think that's a great question, and it's kind of hard to answer without giving it time and seeing how we actually progress through it.

But the thing I've been really proud of is there hasn't been any feeling sorry or lack of intensity, lack of effort, and there hasn't been any panic either.

So I've been impressed with the fact that we're kind of just continuing to put in the work and keep being who we're being and not get too down.

And, you know, I mean, we're on a nice little streak right now.

I'm going to keep that up.

But a lot of professional guys in this locker room, a lot of guys with experience.

And, you know, there's definitely not any panic here, which, you know, quite frankly, I feed off of that.

You know, it's one of those where I feel like that just indicates good leadership and, you know, ultimately veteran players and a culture that's really, you know, built to win.
