Can Gary Sheffield still bring it in the batter’s box? Apparently yes, as shown by an Instagram video. Posted this week, Sheffield is seen taking hacks while smoking a cigar. The retired athlete is showing that he still possesses the power that he was so well-known for. After hitting a trio of bombs, he then turns to the camera and says “put it in the bank.”
The MLB’s official Twitter account picked up the video on Monday.

Yes, at 51 years old, Sheffield can still hit it deep with the same infamous swing, even if he’s using a metal bat.
