Bonds as Teacher

Peter Gammons sits down with Don Mattingly and Barry Bonds to talk hitting and learning playing whiffle ball. Bonds starts talking about the hitters on the Marlins, and he appears to have the essence of coaching down:

“There’s no one way to hit,” Barry says. “There is no ‘Barry Bonds method.’ It’s about each individual hitter, and eventually what he does well, then what he can learn to make himself better. “

Bonds talks about learning from Tony Gwynn, and now learning from Ichiro Suzuki. Bonds always tried to learn from others, even David Eckstein. It may turn out to be a lot of fun watching the Marlins this year.
