Former National League home run king Ralph Kiner, now with Cleveland, says his low .298 batting average stems from facing American League pitching for the first time. He admits he knows little about the AL hurlers and believes familiarity will lift his output as he gains actual experience. He notes spring form has been weak with four homers in 25 games, a pace not unusual for him even in 50 home run seasons.
