Boy you're taking me back in my memories now. The Sarge was very similar to Matthews but as you said not near as violent. You had to know a lot of pitchers were intimidated by Sheffield, dude was menacing at the plate with that bat waggle. It's so amazing to me that, Sheffield with all that violence in his swing didn't K hardly at all. Just an amazing hitter. Matthews was such a great teammate and player. Everyone loved the guy!
