Well, it worked for three of his players, they all got on base. His flaw or weakness - he didn't believe in himself. Should have relaxed, paid attention and played the pitches as they came.
We don't all have to grit our teeth. Some of us don't have any... teeth, but lots of grit. Play ball!
I was a good batter in my Iowa barnyard but when I showed up for a little league game my teeth started chattering like a loose tappet. I could have used Charlie's advice.
I've lived here on The Poor Farm most of my life. Located in western Kansas, where the wind blows - supposedly the Dodge City weather station at the airport has the highest average wind speed in the CONUS. It would be the "sticks" out here if there were any trees, but I like it. I really like the spring - when it is calm, and the smell of the fresh wheat and other plants fill the air with a unique "green" smell. My real love is the fall, when the air is cooling and calm, when you breath the air it is like a drink of cool water. Speaking of cool water, my well produces some mighty good tasting stuff. It is hard water for sure - all the faucets have lime on them, but I'll take it over soft mossy smelling reservoir water from the city any day.

Defiantly grit our teeth, oh yeah I am ;)
