Nick Madrigal is one of the top two-strike hitters in the majors: ‘It almost feels more comfortable to be in that situation at certain times,’ the Chicago White Sox second baseman sayss

The Sox had runners on first and second with two outs. The game was tied at 1. Madrigal fell behind 0-2. He wasn’t overthinking the moment.

“Once I got to two strikes, I wasn’t worried about striking out or the situation, I was locked in on just the pitch that I thought was coming and really just trying to put it in play and try to make something happen,” Madrigal said. “Fortunate enough, it ended up working out.”
