Ok will give you that ...............
and according to Gibson, advanced scouting-based knowledge of what the pitcher would likely throw with that count
As the story goes Gibson overheard the announcer say what Eck's "out" pitch was going to be and waited for it. Never heard the corked bat story but I will agree that ball sure carried pretty far on a minor league swing.
