Robinson Cano got a slider and he obviously crushed it. He also knew his numbers with RISP. “I try not to think about it in the game,” he said. “But I know. Some of it is bad luck but it seems like I hit better if somebody is on first or nobody is on. I don’t know why.”
I knew he has been atrocious with RISP, but the "I hit better if somebody is on first" bit strikes me as strange. Is it possible that this is because, as a left-handed batter, he doesn't see a runner on first as well as he would on second or third, and therein he isn't as affected/thrown off and is more comfortable in the box? Or am I crazy? Wtf? Has anyone heard of such a thing before?

No. And who cares?
Ha Ha! Just Kidding. I actually care a lot, even though I post anonymously. Maybe someday I'll come out of the shadows and use my username.
