Against All Odds 


I don't know how Gary Sheffield does it with that swing. It's not a normal swing. As he waits for the ball, his bat goes back and forth, back and forth, at a seemingly chaotic pace. Then he swings and always seems to get the clutch hit. He's 4 for 4 tonight, bringing his average for the season up to .302.

A great hitter like Don Mattingly you can understand. Mattingly's swing was nearly perfect every time. Sheffield's consistency seems to defy laws of physics.
