call certain might move pain slight step swinging wrist
Obviously, if I move my wrist in a certain direction, I might feel a slight pain. But the way I'm swinging the bat, there's no pain there right now. I'll call that a step forward.
bag baseball call check game speed sure talk talking time video
My friends like to play as me in the baseball games, and they call to tell me about every bag I steal. And you know, every time a new game comes out, I check to make sure my speed is up to par. But to me, when you talk video games, you're talking 'Madden.'
calling count funny guys nfl order pitch ready spot study technology watch
We watch so much film, calling up pitch by pitch, count by count in order to spot tendencies. Technology is a big part of how I get ready for a game. What's funny is a lot of the NFL guys say they study the 'Madden' game; that's how they learn to read offenses and defenses.

act cry era selfish worried
(Washburn) shouldn't cry about it; he should take it for what it is. Do it the right way, ... He got the win, and that's the only thing he should be worried about. That's a selfish act to be worried about his ERA after he's already got the win.
