PHOENIX -- Three days ago, on the heels of watching Indians stars Francisco Lindor and Edwin Encarnacion bat against his team, Reds shortstop Zack Cozart decided to try a change to how he set himself to hit.
Instead of starting with his hands up by his face while holding the bat Wednesday in his spring debut vs. the Brewers, Cozart kept them relaxed. His bat was rested on his shoulder to start.
On the second pitch of his first at-bat of the day, Cozart slugged a 1-0 pitch for a home run to left field against Chase Anderson.
