Never charge a player and, above all, no pointing your finger or yelling.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I learned this a long time ago. If you call a guy into your office and shut the door, if there's media around, it sends up a red flag. I never wanted to embarrass a player.
Sitting there clapping and smiling... it's difficult. You're like, 'Don't worry about it, you just double faulted, you just played a really dumb point. Keep positive.' Then more clapping. That would annoy me as a player.
Guys need to know when to take charge.
Don't do anything in practice that you wouldn't do in the game.
You're just trying to throw the best pitch you can and make sure you hit your spots. I don't have to force nobody.
When placed in command, take charge.
Something goes wrong, I yell at them -'Fix it'- whether it's their fault or not. You can only really yell at the players you trust.
Never stand and take a charge... charge them too.
I put a charge into a lot of balls. Still can.
If it doesn't know what to charge you for nosebleed seats, your team sucks.
