Stolen Bases
“She’s a great player—she possesses speed, plus power, plus contact and she knows the game really well. She doesn’t chase many bad pitches and makes quick adjustments, which makes it that much harder to get her out. She’s a menace for opposing coaches, but fun to watch … one of those players you’d like to have on your team.”
