Arlington, Texas — He’s got them all shaking their heads in wonder down here.
Former Tiger John Hicks has done what no other player in Rangers history has ever done: He’s hit four home runs in his first four games with the club.
“There’s some loud sounds coming out of that bat right now,” Rangers manager Chris Woodward said. “It kind of gives a jolt to everybody in the lineup."
Woodward should have hung out on the back fields in Lakeland while Hicks was taking batting practice and stand next to the old indoor batting cage that was behind the outfield fence on the turf field, the one with the aluminum or metal roof.
