power hitter
Fence-clearing batter
A power hitter is a baseball or softball player known for hitting the ball with exceptional force, producing home runs and extra-base hits rather than singles.
The term extends to any athlete or competitor who relies on strength over finesse: She's the power hitter on the volleyball team.
In business contexts, a power hitter is someone who delivers major results or closes big deals.
