Who is breakout Yankees slugger Luke Voit?

OAKLAND, Calif. — Luke Voit is quickly becoming a Paul Bunyan in spikes, swinging a Louisville Slugger for an axe.

Here’s Voit, talking about his go-ahead home run in Tuesday night’s eighth inning off Fernando Rodney – his seventh homer as a Yankee, all in the last 12 games.

“(Rodney’s) had a great change-up forever and I saw a good one first pitch. (I took that) approach to kind of stay right-center on him; if he hangs it let it eat,'' Voit said after the Yankees' important 5-1 win against the Oakland A's. 

"And he left a pitch up and I got to do some damage with it. Yeah. It’s a fun feeling.’’

They’re having a blast, watching Voit square up baseballs and doing his Sammy Sosa hop-out-of-the-box thing after connecting.
