It’s been really good to see. The hitting side, which we expected, was going to be his calling card,”

It took a minute at this level to get going. He hit into some tough luck early [in the season], but it’s just the quality of at-bat which continues with him regardless of the results.”

I threw to Austin in one of my rehab outings last year, and I was very impressed with how he is as a man,”Obviously, he is a great player. You see the bat come around. Defensively, he is outstanding. Since he has been here, you have seen what the Yankees saw from him with the bat. I want him to keep his head down, keep attacking in the box, put pretty good at-bats together and catch the ball.”

Following Texas 9-4 win in the second game of doubleheader Texas manager Bruce Bochy had this to say about New York the team that wears the pinstripes starting lineup!

Great focus, that’s who he is,”It’s a tough lineup; to hold them down to one run in five innings, I mean, what a terrific job.I see it so many times with him; it’s just how well he prepares. He has a game plan and he makes adjustments in the dugout. He doesn't try to power his way through a lineup. But he uses all four quadrants. He's got a really good idea of what he wants to do. He goes out there, and now he's at a stage, I think, where it's easier for him to execute those pitches because he’s had the reps.”

Following Texas 9-4 win in the second game of doubleheader Cody Bradford who started pitched 5.0 innings surrendering 5 hits, 1 earned run , 0 walks while striking out 7 New York the team that wears the pinstripes batters had this to say had this to say about his start!

Today was a real dream coming true, getting to pitch at Yankee Stadium,”Growing up as a Rangers fan and seeing them beat the Yankees in the playoffs in the 2010 ALCS, it was a real dream come true. I tried to just come in kind of below my baseline. That’s something that Max [Scherzer] told me last year, and just be me.”

“There's always little mechanical tweaks,”When my line toward home plate is really good, I tend to work the glove side well. For me, being able to execute fastballs in to righties is a really big advantage, because it opens up the outer half of the plate. Coming back from rehab, I think getting to the glove side was one of the last things to come back.”

It has come back in full force now.
