Only one way to go down in Royals closer Greg Holland's world: Swinging
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Sometimes, there would be one shiner. Sometimes, it was two. The cover story was the same, regardless:
"How'd you get that black eye?" Todd Raleigh would ask.
"Fell down the stairs," Greg Holland would reply, grinning sheepishly.
The first time, it worked. But as a Western Carolina Catamount, Holland seemed to fall down the stairs a hell of a lot more than the average undergrad.
By the third time, it went more like this:
"How'd you get that?" Raleigh would ask.
"Fell dow..." Holland would start.
"You didn't fall down the stairs," his coach would interject. "I ain't stupid."
