Saturday’s Cactus League opener was their first chance to play with the pitch clock, shift ban and larger bases. ‘I thought it was good,’ Dave Roberts said.
MARYVALE, Ariz – The team bus outside the visitors’ clubhouse at American Family Fields of Phoenix was warmed up and ready to go at 3:30 Saturday afternoon.
Roberts said he noticed that players were “engaged and watching the game” Saturday to see how the new rules played out. “It’s different. But you gotta adjust to whatever the rules are,” Peralta said. “First game, so we’ll see how it’s gonna be tomorrow. But I got the walk. It was gonna be ball four anyways, but who knows if I would have swung at the pitch.”
“Every pitch you’ve got to know where you’re at. So every pitch I’m looking at that. … You get a sense of where it’s at. It’s more getting used to when it resets, when it’s 30 seconds instead of 15 , when it’s a foul ball when does it start. It’s more getting used to that.”
