Eric Thames showed off his massive strength by hitting line drive after line drive with one hand

There's no denying that Eric Thames is strong. Even his teammates agree:

During MLB Network's 30 Clubs in 30 Days trip to Brewers camp on Thursday, Thames put that strength on display. Host Carlos Pena threw some soft toss to the slugging first baseman and Thames delivered line drive after line drive ... with one hand:

You can hear Pena in the main clip above talking about players doing the same thing with a shorter bat. Thames, perhaps finding that too easy, does it with his game-used lumber -- something he's been known to do in the past.
Try this at home, kids, if you can and someday -- you might have the power of Eric Thames.
