I made a remark on Beerleaguer a few days ago that watching Ryan Howard was like watching The Natural: every at bat is either a home run or a strikeout. Well, the stats bear me out, though he does mix in a walk every now and again. In the past year, Howard has had three games in which he had four strikeouts and a home run. No player in the last 50 years has had three games like that in a career.
