Tom Murphy hit 6 dingers in 4 games. That fact alone may be worth an article. I wrote this article because that seemed odd and I desired to find out why Tom Murphy hit 6 dingers in 4 games. Only I had to delete most of what I wrote because Rian Watt over at Fangraphs already profiled Tom Murphy back in June. Which made me momentarily angry, but that has since subsided. Great job, Rian.
The thesis of that article was Murphy, with the help of hitting coach Tim Laker, changed how he used his body in order to shorten his swing path, resulting in getting to more balls at the top of the zone and putting them in the air.
