Ability to hit is not about size.  Open field hitting is about speed, timing, body control, leverage, and explosion.  If everyone could do it, powerful hitters wouldn't stand out as much as they do.  John Lynch jumps off the screen in videos of him playing for Stanford.  So does Sebastian playing for California.

I don't see why being effusive about a guy Stanford is about to play is cause for such consternation.
