Batista’s Pop Secret
Posted by Matthew Namee
Mike Webber pointed out this hilarious blurb from the Expos comments in the March 22 edition of The Sporting News:3B Tony Batista hits popcorn kernels every day to help him focus at the plate. A teammate soft-tosses the kernels from the side. Batista has been doing this for more than a year. Hitting coach Tom McCraw loves the routine so much that he plans to buy a 25-pound bag of kernels and have other players do it...
I'm not sure I can add anything to that.
Matthew Namee cofounded The Hardball Times in 2004, when he was working as the assistant to baseball author and Red Sox executive Bill James. Matthew still lives in Kansas, where he is currently pursuing a law degree. He can be reached at mfnamee [at] gmail [dot] com.
