Big East in the Big Leagues: Panik Power

There's a new home run king in these parts and his name is Joe Panik. Plus, Amir Garrett keeps progressing nicely and Pat Neshek and Matt Szczur deal with small sample sizes.

Who knew the left-handed power stroke of one Joe Panik would be on full display in the early days of April. Panik, who smacked a solo dinger in yesterday's 9-7 loss to Arizona, has two home runs this week, which has helped make up for a .231 average in the same time period. Small sample sizes be damned, our boy has discovered his ability to send the ball over the fence.
