Oh Oh Cano!

I'm watching the Yankees try to avoid the 3-game sweep at the hands of the Mariners. The Yanks are up 2-0, the second run coming on Robinson Cano's 16th homer. He has 54 ribs and is hitting .354.
Every time he comes up I think to myself, man, he looks like a young Bill Rogan with that sweet lefty swing. Actually, I can only dream of having a swing that nice. Cano has one of the prettiest swings in the game.
Think of guys who have had beautiful swings. My list would have George Brett on it (number one for me) along with Ken Griffey Jr., Willie Stargell, Fred Lynn, Kirk Gibson and Reggie Jackson.
What do these guys have in common?
How about they are all left-handed. I've always felt that lefties have the sweetest swings because when they follow through, they are heading towards first base naturally. A right-hander has to quickly get out of his follow-through to change direction and run towards first. So a left handed swing looks more majestic than a right handed "rip and jerk the body in the other direction" swing. Are you buying this? I am.
Anyway, the Yanks won 4-2. A-Rod a 2-run, 8th inning homer and Mariano the save. Ballgame. Nappy time for BR. Later.
