Sports cliches are fun. And baseball has plenty of them. “See the ball, hit the ball.” “Staying within myself.” “Just trying to not do too much.” Cliches are both a mindset and a way to get reporters off your back after a less than exciting question. For Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy, it’s certainly both often.
Muncy is in the midst of a much needed hot streak at the plate, catching on fire particularly while the team has been in Texas. He had 5 hits, 2 home runs, and 7 RBIs against the Rangers in the three game series.
