slugger

But still, with the stretch run of the season nearing, the manager was dropping a hint to his star slugger as well.

It appears another former Major League Baseball slugger with Southland ties will run for political office.

Thus, when Muncy returned to action Monday night, the Dodgers were desperately hoping the veteran slugger could provide a spark.

And there have been times, Roberts noted, the slugger appears to get into a “swing mode” that prevents him from laying off bad pitches.

But Dave Roberts voiced the team’s continued confidence that the veteran slugger can improve down the stretch, insisting better performance is “still in there.”
