Dukes: "I love walks."
From the WaTimes gamer:
“I love walks. That's my motto — a walk is as good as a hit,” Dukes said. “I got two key walks today. It shows that you don't always have to get a hit.”
On his approach to the crucial AB:
“He had a lot of breaking balls, so I figured he'd try to attack me the same way,” Dukes said. “That's the thing. They know I can hit a fastball, so they try to go breaking balls. I'll take the walk.”
Dukes' walk rate is 13.4% right now, for an isolated patience (OBP-AVG) of 0.101. That's second only to Ryan Langerhans among actives right now (LangerWalks has a 19.3 BB% and an isolated patience of 0.158).

Langerwalks, ha ha!
Langerhans comes out to bat to “Iron Man” and imagine he says to himself, “I am Langer Handz!!!” in that evil robot voice…
Everything I say is a "little" sarcastic.
