 | FILE - In this July 23, 2008, file photo, Detroit Tigers' Curtis Granderson, right, slides into third for a triple as Kansas City Royals third baseman Alex Gordon reaches for the late tag in the seventh inning of a baseball game in Kansas City, Mo. Addressing whether sliding feet-first or head-first is more efficient, Granderson of the New York Yankees says he's scraped up his hand sliding into home and tries to avoid it, and the same goes for diving into first base. "Into third," he says, "I think you get leaning a little bit, especially if it's a triple. You get a little fatigued, you're leaning forward and just momentum takes you down that way." |
