Pitchers have tried to drive thinner
man away from the plate by shooting
the first and second balls directly at
his head. But not an inch would he
shirk. Pegging at his head only has
n tendency To arouse his ire and he
steps into the following benders with
more determination. Zimmerman will
stand at the plate and dodge n Wild
