New Approach Paying Dividends for Los Angeles Dodgers

Don Mattingly was named hitting coach in 2007 and took on the task of transforming an impatient Dodger team into a more disciplined offensive ball club.

While there has been a lot of focus, and rightfully so, put on the impact of Manny Ramirez’s arrival last season, Mattingly becoming hitting coach was a major factor that turned things around in Los Angeles.

In his two-year stint directing the young Dodger lineup, Mattingly has done what every coach only wishes he can accomplish.

In an era when home runs have become the main focal point of not only the media and fans, but also seemingly the hitters themselves, Mattingly has been able to stress the importance of patience at the plate.
