Comeback of the Home Run Kid (2009)
“He'd decided he'd start off by batting righty. If he got on base, great. But if things looked bad, he'd switch to lefty and see what happened next.
Duke's first pitch came in low. Syl let it go by for a ball. The second one, a breaking ball, curved out at the last moment.
Syl swung and missed. The count was 1 and 1.
Duke smirked as he caught the throw from his catcher. Syl suspected he was going to try the breaking ball again. He was right, but guessing what was coming didn't help h...im hit it. The umpire held up one finger on his left hand, two on his right.
Syl quickly stepped out of the batter's box and glanced over at Duane. Duane gave him the thumbs up, and then grabbed the coach's arm and started talking to him in a low voice.
The time had come. It was now or never. Sylvester crossed behind home plate to the box on the right and took up a lefty stance.
