I say this respectfully. He's a freak. He's a very good hitter without a strike zone. He can hit the ball in, hit the ball off the plate away, hit the ball up and go get the ball that's down. He covers the plate, and beyond.

I was throwing mostly fastballs and had pretty good location. I was able to keep the ball down and work quickly.

That was a heads-up play. I was behind him (backing up), and he saw the throw didn't have enough to get the runner. So he ran up where he could get the ball cleanly and make the throw. That made it two outs and no on, instead of (the potential for) an add-on run. The damage was over.

He can hit the ball out of the park anywhere, probably out of the Grand Canyon.
