"4 Damn Inches"

Thats what she said.........Its also what Giancarlo Stanton said about his latest power surger. Stanton has 6 HR's in his last 9 games and is one of the hottest hitters in the league. He commented that he moved his hands back 4 inches in his stance which dropped his left shoulder and has allowed him to drive the ball. Then he finished with "4 damn inches".

Albert Does It

After 33 games and 139 AB's (dating back to 2011) Albert Pujols finally hit a HR. It was the longest homerless streak of his career. When he came back to the dugout not 1 Angels player was waiting for him. He ran in the tunnel for a quick celebration with teammates and we may have even seen Mike Scioscia crack a smile. For Albert and his owners hopefully this will get him going.
