How to use "Slugger" in context?
In baseball, slugging is the act of hitting a pitched ball with great force, usually resulting in an extra base hit. Slugging can be achieved by several different swings, but the most common approach is to start from a deep stance, drive the ball hard towards the center of the field, and keep the bat close to the ball throughout the swing. Power hitters who slug often hit for extra bases, hitting many balls over the fence.
