Masters: Woods swings and ...
Don't ask Tiger Woods if he struck out against John Smoltz.
Tiger Woods doesn't strike out. Even if he did, we wouldn't know it.
Woods took batting practice against Smoltz, the Atlanta Braves' ace.
"It was fun," said Woods, talking about something besides golf to break the tension before the Masters. "It's one of those things that I've always wanted to do. My dad played baseball and I grew up playing baseball but not to face probably a future Hall of Famer in Smoltzie, and having to get up there and have him throw you all of his stuff and to make contact and drive one up the middle a little bit was pretty cool."
Woods and Smoltz have also met on the golf course. No reason to go into details about who won that showdown.
