Does anyone have any idea what, if anything, Sandy Leon is doing differently as a hitter this year?
I'll say the words now. Small sample size. I understand. It's only 35 at bats. But he was such a lousy hitter last year, he didn't work up a .457/.525/.686 slash line in any five at bats you could pick out, never mind 35. And that included 2 more hits today including his 5th double. He couldn't do this for even this long last year or before. Are there any stories out there trying to explain why suddenly, however briefly thus far, he seems like a good hitter?
