Following Wednesday night’s win over the Royals 5-1 at Progressive Field, Lindor sat in front of his media flashing his infectious smile and talking about his big night on the plate in which he went 3-for-4 with a homer and four RBI.
Lindor spoke about the turnaround, which for him actually started in AAA Columbus, and eventually staying focused and taking it one plate appearance at a time has started to pay off big time at the Major League level.
“It all started in the minor leagues, Rudy Odor (AAA Columbus hitting coach), he always helped me, he told me ‘don’t waste an at-bat,’ my dad the same thing he tells me the same thing ‘don’t waste it,'” Lindor said.
“I get myself out a lot, and I am sure I am not the only one, pretty much everybody gets themselves out a lot, you got a good pitcher on the mound he’s going to get you.
“Most of the time you are getting yourself out, your chasing, thinking something that you shouldn’t be thinking, next thing you know you are all over the place and not focusing, giving it all you got on that one at-bat. That’s what I am trying to do focus on that one at-bat, that exact moment, not waste it.”
