The HR guys just look more spectacular and show better on the highlight films.
I don't know about ALL that. Pujols has been seen driving a Maserati, has two World Series rings, has a career .316 batting average, 537 home runs, and strikes out, on average, 1 every ten times at bat. I don't know about you but that sounds AMAZING to me. I personally think it's the pitching that wins the game for you. It's hard to hit what you can't see. I hear ya on the small ball stuff though. I'm from MN, I've almost forgotten what a HR is! But then again, I've almost forgot what winning in too (it's starting to come back to though - Thank you Paul Molitor)
