One of the most important things we ask of our players is that they give it their very best effort when playing the game. We expect all of our players to hustle when they are out on the field. Examples of hustling include the following:
- Running on and off the field
- Always running hard on batted balls (or dropped third strikes)
- Backing up plays defensively
- Being in an athletic position
Not every player is blessed with the talent to be the top hitter or pitcher in the league. But, every player can give his best effort.
Pete Rose ("Charlie Hustle")
