Indeed.  That was a good looking swing at a 97mph fastball in to the LHH (video at the link has it in slo-mo).
Another trenchant comment by a jealous lesser intellect.

This was (of course) his NL debut.  He had a less-than-triumphant 6-game stint with Oakland last year.  9 K's and only 3 hits in 19 plate appearances.

I wish him well this time around.
