Basically, he is referring to the logic that walking more takes away ABs, therefore more chances for HRs. So if you walk less you'll get more chances to put the play, and therefore more chances for that ball to go out. He will hit more HRs, but the Batting Average might get slighted a little, and obviously the walks will be cut down by a good amount.
