To an amazing degree. Part of it is personnel and knowing when and how to use them, but much of it is emphasis and focus.

Last 3 years they had anvils in their pockets and skillets in their gloves.

This year has been fun to watch - Except of course for the inconsistent pitching and roller coaster hitting.

Base running and D have been strong all season.

I wish I could watch - I'm on the road until the 21st
