And my wife and I enjoy a good road trip: the podcasts (“West Cork,” this time), the pit stops and the way the miles roll by like life, slowly in the moment and then, with the steady application of foot to gas pedal, suddenly they are in the rear view. We treat ourselves, inevitably, to cheddar cheese Combos, a food we eat only on road trips, just as Food Network is a channel we watch only in hotel rooms.

“Guys are really starting to learn the strike zone, not chase, and if you’re living by the home run all the time and not being able to produce runs, it’s not conducive to winning baseball,” Menechino said. “When the weather warms up and guys start getting a sweat and start feeling better, the goal is always in the beginning of the season to get as many hits as you can, manufacture runs. The home runs will come just by plate discipline and attacking our sweet spot.”
