Note of the night: If you bring up patience or drawing walks or even on-base percentage to Tony La Russa, there's a decent chance you're going to get a somewhat dismissive answer. It's not that he devalues OBP -- though he values it less than, say, I do. It's that he feels that in at least some cases, an emphasis on patience and walks can put hitters in a bad spot.
Obviously, You're Not A Golfer
