Guys like Luzinski, Rice, Stargell, Kingman, Schmidt, etc... used to be great to watch because at any moment they might launch a moonshot. Cats like that used to tag the ball over the center field fence in the Astrodome. Now you have all these short fields and roid nuts nailing what would have been long flies in the old days out of mini-fields.
I'm confused. Do you like the home run or not? And you might want to check your facts, because if I'm not mistaken, when Luzinski, Rice, et. al. played, 25-30 HR's in a season was considered a "basher". Or are you saying a moonshot isn't a moonshot in a bandbox park?
