“I don’t think there’s one way, from a hitting standpoint, to tell somebody how to do it,” Kotsay said. “Jacob has his unique style. He’s a bat-to-ball guy that puts it in play and sometimes seems to have a magic wand where he can hit it where he wants to. I played with a guy like that — Tony Gwynn — who had that magic wand.
“And for Nick, when he touches it, he impacts the baseball, and he can leave anywhere in the yard. They’re definitely two different styles of hitters, but they have an advanced approach for how young they are in knowing who they are and knowing what they’re trying to do.”
