“We hit on Monday, but that was it because there's no roof (on the batting cage). We couldn't take ground balls because the field was too wet. The pitchers threw a little bit in the gym on Thursday, but there was no bullpen (session).”
Corey Ishigo
“I'm seeing the ball real well and I've made some adjustments. Every Monday I go out to the hitting cages and I've been able to make my corrections.”
Andy D'Alessio
“Practicing in a gym doesn't get it. And you can only go out and hit in a cage so much. You need repetitions on the field. That's what we're missing.”
Tu'u Seva'aetasi
“They were actually going to hit on the field, but now they'll go down and hit in the cage, ... [General manager] Theo [Epstein] asked me a few days ago if I had a problem, and I actually thought it was great. I had met Ellsbury, but [I] had not met Lowrie.”
Terry Francona
“I couldn't hit him in the cage.”
Alex Rodriguez
“She has no social skills, ... And her paws were so tender from being in the cage. She's come a long way in a year and eight months.”
Beth Bates
“We have no idea how she got it. We visited her neighborhood and found no poultry or caged birds near her house.”
