early in the season when the pitchers are ahead of the hitters. It's just a couple of more than most seasons isn't it?

Agreed though that most hitters seem to swinging for the fences, but that's been going on for several seasons now. When you watch the sports highlights on the news it's always showing the home run blasts or strike outs from trying hit home runs.
