"Struggling designated hitter Adam Dunn played golf with White Sox sports psychologist Jeff Fishbein on a recent day off.
"He's actually real good, so that added more stress to my life, golfing with him," Dunn said Tuesday.
Good to know he has a good short game, but can he fix Dunn's swing? Is he a good shrink?
"I talked to him a little bit," Dunn said. "It works for different people. I don't know if it works for me, but you know, I have talked with him, and I even golfed with him. I like him. [But] I don't know what's a good [sports psychologist]. It's my first run-in with one."
Dunn struck out four times against the Washington Nationals on Sunday, raising his AL-leading total to 100. He's 2-for-26 with 16 strikeouts in his last seven games.
"I just need to go back to basics and quit thinking," Dunn said. "It's not me. I'm not a thinker. I have to see it, hit the damn thing and not make it so complicated."
With no DH in Colorado, manager Ozzie Guillen gave Dunn the night off. He probably will play in the last game of the Sox' series at Colorado, replacing whomever Guillen believes needs a day off most among left fielder Juan Pierre, right fielder Carlos Quentin and first baseman Paul Konerko, Guillen said."
