On a bright day earlier this season, Tony Blanco wrapped up batting practice and headed back to the Yokohama BayStars clubhouse after sending a litany of balls all over — and a few out of — Yokohama Stadium.
On the way he was greeted by BayStars reliever Jorge Sosa, who, as he watched Blanco disappear into the tunnel behind the dugout, shook his head and muttered, "Too much power. It's not fair."
This from a guy who doesn't even have to face Blanco.
