    I read that Stratton changed his batting stance to some sort of a no-stride or short-stride setup. I don't recall reading about Lasik surgery, but that might have helped too.

    I think you're confusing "lasik eye surgery" with "all cheeseburger diet."

    Hmm... maybe I am getting him confused with Larson. I just remember about the time he started punishing the ball, he was interviewed and it was found that there was some sort of major change. Could have been his stance though, that makes sense.

    Sorry if I mixed those up.

    Don't let it happen again.
    My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!
