The Orioles outfielder received his usual Bronx reception
“I felt I was playing one game and then I’d have two days off,” Hicks told the Post. “It seemed like a lot of off-days were scheduled. I wanted to play every day and enjoy the highs and lows of being an everyday baseball player. I like to get into a groove. I still have the mindset of an everyday player.
“I wouldn’t play and then I’d have to think about it for a day, and I was fighting battles I can’t win. I want to play every day. I don’t want to be a fourth outfielder. I’ve already done that and it doesn’t work for me. You want to get to the point of playing consistently for two months and that’s what I’m getting here.”
