Why I play baseball
Behind all of the diving plays and gap shots is hundreds of cuts and ground balls. There is nothing more rewarding and satisfying seeing all of the hard work pay off in real time.

My Approach to the game
At the Plate:
My approach at the plate is pretty simple. My whole goal is to hit a line drive right over the pitchers head. I look for fastball early in the at bat so I can put up my ‘A’ swing early. My biggest strength at the plate is contact rate. I had 13 strikeouts in 200 at bats in the 2025 season.
On the Mound:
On the mound I work on tunneling my pitches so they all work together to get weak contact. Strikeouts are not my biggest stat, but weak contact is where the most of my outs come from.
In the Infield:
My biggest strength is my glovework. Once I get the ball in my glove it just comes down to muscle memory and the thousands of footwork drills to get a strong throw.
