Rosario displays power in form of triples

CLEVELAND -- A batter's power typically manifests itself in a rather obvious fashion.

You see a tall, hulking hitter with an uppercut swing. You hear unusually loud cracks off the bat and witness majestic home runs that find their way dozens of rows back in the outfield seats.

Eddie Rosario is not your typical slugger.

The Twins' rookie left fielder stands 6-foot-1 and weighs in at 180 pounds. He's hit just five home runs in 74 games this year, and he's never slugged more than 12 home runs in a single season above rookie ball.
