GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Todd Frazier’s aggressive nature kicked in during live batting practice on Wednesday and resulted in a pair of broken bats.
While many position players choose to use early sessions against their pitching teammates as an opportunity to watch lives pitches and track them, some prefer the grip-it-and-rip-it method. The team’s new third baseman said he likes a mixture of both. While a pair of swings led to two pieces of splintered lumber, Frazier said he couldn’t help but swing after he saw a few pitches he liked.
“That’s part of the game,” Frazier said.
