Joe. Regarding the one at the letters you have to get on top of that pitch. So you might have to think about the tomohawk approach so to speak. But Julio Lugo did a good job against Mariano Rivera 4 nights ago in the ninth inning on a double that was at the letters. Andre Dawson and George Brett (See. mlb.com pine tar game) were good high ball hitters.
