Dusty Baker Batting Quotations

Guys tell me they sleep on the road a lot easier and better than they do at home, ... At home, you end up waking at 7:00 in the morning because you're used to getting up early. On the road, you're not worried about sleeping in and missing batting practice. You're always conscious here of oversleeping. You don't want to wake up in a panic, especially if it's cloudy or dark outside. If it gets sunny early, you're jumping out of bed and it could be 6 o'clock.

It's not definite, but it's not very possible. I'm open-minded to changes, but that's usually a very accomplished hitter's spot. I never dreamed I'd be batting fifth in my rookie year behind Hank Aaron, either.
