"You have to consider the pitcher, the score, the number of outs, the count, whether there are runners on the bases, the type of batter you are, the importance of the game, etc...
"Be aggressive but selective.
"Assume that every pitch is your pitch. The key is to be ready to capitalize on any pitcher’s mistake but yet to be able to hold on if the pitch is not right.
"Wayne Gretzky said it best: "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take". Essentially, when you're at the plate, you are the offensive player and to make something happen, you've to take the bat off your shoulders.
"Just don't be an easy out for the pitchers going after everything."
