Bittner's spring surge boosts Cubs and Buttner impact
Cubs rookie Larry Biittner has seized spring training with a .324 start after 111 at bats and two home runs in a Padres game. Hitting instructor Lew Fonseca reshaped his stance, manager Herman Franks backs him, and Buckner's ankle injury opens first base.
