00:00Jack Peterson with us here on the fan, and of course, former teammate Corey Seeger.

00:20Now you get to rejoin him in this Rangers lineup.

00:23Any other buddies on this Rangers team?

00:25I play with sports a little bit, but yes, Seeger, I've known, we've known each other

00:30for 10 plus years, so to watch him grow up and have the career that he has, it's incredible.

00:37On his way to a first ballot Hall of Famer, and it's not every day you get to get to watch

00:45that type of player work, go about his business, post, and someone who's humble and has the

00:56same eager to win and be great every single day, it's a rare breed.

01:04He's a rare breed, and I'm excited to be back with him, and I want to accomplish some special

01:10things together.

01:11Well, you're off your best year, Jack, what do you think, why were you able to put it

01:15all together, what was different about this last season?

01:19You know, I think as you go on in this game, you continue to learn, and you filter, you

01:27filter good stuff, you filter bad stuff, and you add it to your repertoire, and I think

01:31I want to, I think I'm just continuing, starting to hit, sounds different, because I don't

01:39play the field as much, but my prime as a hitter, where like, understanding, seeing

01:44what I do well, seeing how pitchers attack me, seeing when I do this, I don't do this

01:50as well, and catching, you know, spirals quicker, and leaving the other stuff alone to just

01:57let ride, and you know, just bobbing and weaving, and learning, you learn, and you always are,

02:06this game's going to teach you until you're done playing it, and even after then, it'll

02:09probably teach you some more, so it's just for us to be able to take that information,

02:15how we use it, and I think I've been able to continue to add to it, instead of it making

02:20negative and running me out of the game.
