Anybody who has ever seen Mickey Mantle should laugh off the suggestion that he used a corked bat. The man was built like a Greek God, and didn't need any kind of help hitting a ball a country mile. He could roll out of bed in the morning on two hours of sleep, and hit a pitch 500 feet without even trying.
Ted Williams used a lighter bat than most power hitters in his day, as he was able to generate more bat speed with it. The man analyzed every aspect of hitting, and if he felt he was able to generate more power with a lighter bat, I'm inclined to believe him. Yahoo Sports is trying to keep up with ESPN for the rights to be called the TMZ of sports journalism. I find their "reporting" to be less and less credible as time goes bye.
