When I was a kid I was enthralled by Joe DiMaggio's book, "Baseball for Everyone." Too much so. He talked about how a great leadoff guy took a lot of pitches and walked and was every bit as valuable as a slugger. I promptly went out to my next Little League game and started taking every pitch. After two K's looking and 1 walk my coach expressed his, um, frustration. (I was the cleanup batter in his lineup, LOL). "But coach, Joe DiMaggio said...."
