Daily News | Phillies’ Scott Kingery shows off results of his ‘different swing’ with homer off Aaron Nola
’ Scott Kingery stepped into the box on Thursday at BayCare Ballpark against Aaron Nola and launched one of his changeups just short of the tiki bar behind left field. Kingery got a round of applause from his teammates, and walked back to the dugout with a smile.
“You can see that it’s a different swing,” Long said. “He didn’t have the ability to go direct to the ball — it just was not happening. There was a lot of stuff happening before he went to contact. A lot of inward turning. He would bury his hands. Some tilt to his bat, it was uphill, it wasn’t direct. He understands what he needs to do now, and how he needs to do it.”
“There was almost a point last year where I felt like he was hesitant about going to the batters box. There’s no hesitation now. His confidence is spilling out of him. Now he’s jumping in.” He isn’t focusing on all that quite yet. For now, he’s relishing his moment in the sun, and what it represents.Rhys Hoskins’ lame-duck contract status with Phillies evokes memories of Pat Burrell in 2008
