I think that's the toughest thing about center field.
Yeah.
You've got to really pay attention and see how it sounds coming off the bat because you can tell when the ball's really hit.
Oh, interesting.
Yeah, and you can tell when it's not hit.
You've got to really dial in and listen.
And even if you can't hear it because the stadium is super loud sometimes, you just got to make a good read first, step back always, and then you can always adjust for it.
But some people are different.
You know, some people go really good for it, and some people go back really well.
It just depends on who you are.
Do you watch any, like, do you, like... I have my own teammates.
We got about four great outfielders.
I mean, that's all I got to watch if you think about it.
Yeah, I watch my own teammates, especially Raffaella.
They help me when I'm out here now.
They talked to me, Willie talked to me today, telling me to just backhand a ball.
So, like, he was just giving me tips and heads-ups and stuff like that, like, because they know I'm transitioning, and I've never really been out there for these drills.
So I watched them, and they helped me out.
And, like, when a ball's heading into a gap and I can cut it off, instead of trying to get around it, just go ahead and backhand it, set your feet, and throw it back in.
You know, little things like that.
