The guy looked so nervous coming to the plate, with all those twitching mannerisms, that he looked like he needed a Valium.

Or way less coffee.

I'll never forget watching this fidgety player bat. A 3rd baseman with The Angels, Red Sox, and A's, who always looked as if he just had about 23 cups of coffee before getting to the plate. Lansford would hold the bat behind his head and constantly look agitated and nervous, moving the bat around at a frenetic pace. It worked though, as the guy was a fine contact hitter with some pop in his bat.
