J.D. Drew said he once asked St. Louis Cardinals teammate Mark McGwire what he did on the first day of live batting practice. McGwire told Drew he did nothing but tracking, standing at the plate and using the exercise to become reaccustomed to picking up the rotation on the ball.
“I’ve kind of used that over the years,” Drew said. “I can go in there and take swings, but it’s going to look ugly. Those guys are throwing hard, and the sliders are breaking nasty.”
