Actually bunting n getting ball placed to be effective
It takes a lot of skill

Many may not be old ( or wise) enough to remember

Like a slap hitter he would drag the ball down first base line and wss fastt enough to beat the ball to first ( or first baseman)

Kind of a mutation between bunting and slapping

I don't care what they say about you. Anyone that has that many photos of Mickey Mantle can't be all bad.

My guy was Mantle and my brother's was Eddie Mathews. He might be the oldest Braves fan alive since he was a fan because of Mathews when they were in Boston.
