Little a by Steven wine Miami apr like a timid leaguer playing against bigger kids Chuck Carr stepped to the plate and. Hoped for a walk. He figured that was the Best he could do. Mired in a two month slump that had dropped his batting average from .353 to .257, the Florida marlins Center fielder decided he would take Carr two strikes before swinging the Bat. �?o1 had nothing to lose a he says with a laugh. Carr can joke now because the strategy worked. Leading off the ninth inning sunday he walked on a 3-2 pitch and later scored the winning Nin As the marlins beat Colorado. A that was a step in the right direction a Carr says. A you look for something positive. I worked the Pitcher and got on base when we needed in the three games since Carr is 8-for-15 and says his slump is Over. The willingness to walk represents a breakthrough for Carr who is fast and flashy but still struggling to learn the strike zone. The marlins simply want last years National league stolen base Champion to get on base so he can run but his total of 18 walks ranks eighth on the team. That s poor for a Lead off hitter and 10 Days ago a manager Rene Lacheman dropped Carr to no. 2 in the batting order the change is Only temporary but carries a message a a a we be talked to Chuck about being More selective a Lacheman says. A when he was struggling he was going after a lot of pitches out of the strike a Good Lead off hitter should have an on base percentage close to 400. Carry a .307 is Well below the no average of .333 for All players a pitchers included. Quot throughout my career i Haven to had a lot of walks a says Carr 25. A maybe i can learn to do it More. I be been watching Brett Butler on to and How he gets to 0-2, then fights off pitches and winds up getting a hit or a Butler the prototypical Lead off hitter for the los Angeles dodgers has 60 walks and an on base percentage of .410. If Carr tried to emulate him that would please the marlins. A a the main reason Chuck does t have a belter feel for the strike zone is that he has relied on natural Talent for Many years and Hasni to had to learn it particularly Well a hitting coach Doug Rader says. A now he has come to realize that he has to make some adjustments and they re hard to in a 57-eame stretch ending sunday Carr batted just .189. He lost Confidence turned sullen and slept poorly. A my worst Nightmare is hitting the Ball to right Field and getting thrown out at first a Carr says. �?o1 was crying in bed a a no oooo a a a sports on an Central european Tima television baseball a Chicago cubs at St Louis 2 30 .
