“[Detroit Tigers first baseman Prince] Fielder has
the kind of body that an eight-year-old might draw: enormous round shoulders,
thighs that look like torsos, and a face so large that it could double-park. He
also has short arms, giving him an impossibly quick and compact swing, which
helps explain why, after the [Texas] Rangers walked [teammate Miguel] Cabrera,
Fielder smacked a 95-mph sinkerball so hard, it reached the centerfield fence
on one bounce. Double. Three runs in.”—Michael Rosenberg, “Men at Work,” Sports Illustrated, June 17, 2013
