John Olerud Plate Quotations

The last pitch was over the plate but was up and out of the strike zone,

I was just looking for a ball over the plate and get it into the air (for a sacrifice fly), ... The worst thing you can do is hit a ground ball.

He came up and in, and I?m just protecting the plate right there. I did a good job of getting the bat to the ball and got a little help from the wind.
