Pagel draws Kingman comparisons for Aeros power
Karl Pagel, 24, of the Wichita Aeros, leads the American Association with 36 home runs and 109 RBI while batting .326, drawing Chicago Cubs fans to imagine him as a future power slugger like Dave Kingman though Pagel cautions they are different players. Team officials compare his swing to classic power hitters and note his ability to hit to the opposite field even when hot.
