Based on the interview, la palabra del día es "agresiva".

Rosario said his approach in the HR AB was to be aggressive. He described the team's approach in a pitchers' duel where every bit of offense counts as being aggressive. And he described the young team's approach to playing the game in general as "be aggressive". I think he said aggressive in one of the other questions, too.

Like the three man booth.  Wouldn’t mind switching out Franny for Zim and Desi

A bit of trivia: Team leader James Wood has almost as many plate appearances and at-bats (269/230) as tonight's top performers Call, Rosario and Nuñez combined (276/238).

Guess that's why Davey started him.
I mean,  he's basically an MVP against LHP
