Louisville Slugger Designs New Stick for Adam Dunn

04/21/2005

Cincinnati Reds fans everywhere can give thanks to the Louisville Slugger company for developing a new tool to help Adam Dunn finally hit a sacrifice fly. In the Reds Notes from today’s Dayton Daily News:

Adam Dunn toured the clubhouse before Wednesday’s game, proudly displaying a bat given to him by Louisville Slugger representative Chuck Shoup. On the barrel was printed, “Adam Dunn, Sacrifice Fly Bat.” Dunn hasn’t hit a sacrifice fly since July 2003.

We can only hope the newly developed tool can do the trick.

Marty’s obsession with the SF has no basis of fact or even looks at the history of no SF on the Reds ( Hint it’s happened numerous times)

Here are the top 10 reds seasons in AB’s with no SF

AT BATS                       YEAR     AB       SF     
1    Pete Rose                   1973      680        0   
2    Vada Pinson               1959      648        0
