00:00Obviously to hit a home run always feels great but you know kind of a I don't
00:07know like a like a different type of home run being the first one ever here
00:10so that was made a lot more special so I just gotta guess I just gotta hit balls
00:17like that to get them out of here so if I can keep doing that we'll be alright.
00:20For considering I'm you know kind of had two weeks left probably less than two
00:25weeks to get ready for MLB season I'm pretty happy individually like where I'm
00:30at I'm kind of surprised how how I feel at the plate I feel like I'm in a pretty
00:36good rhythm right now and I'm seeing the ball well I'm not swinging at too many
00:40balls and I'm kind of having that same approach I had last year that that I had
00:44success with so I'm pretty happy with it you know I even when I was quarantined I
00:50was working though you know I was hitting off a tee I was hitting the
00:53wiffle ball machine I was working out still so you know I I was kind of
00:58preparing to to be rushed so I was kind of ready for it but yeah like I said I'm
01:02a little a little surprised that I feel as good as I do right now.
