You go 1-for-4… how do you feel? “Ok” You go 1-for-4 again… how do you feel? “Whatever” You go 1-for-4 again… how do you feel? “Starting to get annoyed” You go 1-for-4 again… how do you feel? “Feel like crap” You go 2-for-4… how do you feel? “A little better, but not great” Well you’re hitting .300, so there’s that. If this doesn’t signify the challenges that baseball presents, not only physically, but mentally, then I don’t know what does. Hitting is hard, and a lot of times, we psyche ourselves into believing we’re not very good, when our only job is to show up and compete every day. This should also point out that we should never sleep on the “1-for’s” and how important it is to not give AB’s away, no matter what the circumstances are…
