And after the game....free snow cones!

Andruw Jones has been a fantasy killer all season.

But this morning's Yahoo player update brings a ray of hope out of Hotlanta.

Jul 16- Morris News Service's Brandon Larrabee reports Atlanta Braves OF Andruw Jones' 0-for-4 performance on July 15 ended a five-game hitting streak that saw him bat .500 (8-for-16) with three home runs, boosting his total for the season to 17.

Jones credits his recent resurgence to choking up on the bat, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. He was hitting .302 with six homers over 14 games before going 0-for-4 on Sunday.


Awesome. Did he go back to his little league coach for batting tips?

"Andruw...choke up on the bat, take a nice level swing and stop stepping into the bucket. And for christ's sakes don't go swimming before games."
