Playing Style
Newhan hits lefty and righty pitchers equally well. His swing is compact and level, mostly generating line drives and groundballs. He has batted from every position in the batting order, but has mostly been batted second through 2008.
Newhan plays all infield positions, except shortstop, as well as all outfield positions. Through 2008, he had played 4 games at first base, 57 games at second base, 29 games at third base, and over 300 games split among the three outfield positions. His range is average both in the infield and outfield, and he throws accurately.

Style upon style in dress and thought at last
Must get somewhere.”
