OAKLAND — A’s slugger Khris Davis might have a loud bat, but he’s a quiet individual who likes to keep to himself. That’s why revealing one of his deepest secrets came as a surprise to many.
In an article recently written by Davis himself for The Players’ Tribune, the outfielder described in-depth the notorious struggles he has had making throws from the outfield. Similar to getting ‘the yips’, Davis refers to his issues with throwing the ball as “The Creature” and said he has dealt with it ever since the summer of 2009 while in the Milwaukee Brewers organization.
