baseball going-out bob
I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter; that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit!
sports country mean
The playoffs are the wedge between the season and the World Series. If you lose, it means you won't be going to the greatest sports event in this country...You're forgotten by Thanksgiving.
gloves watches use
Watch Darren Daulton use his mitt like a glove.
balls ballparks one-thing
One thing about ground balls: they don't go out of the ballpark.
mean giving use
When a catcher has to use his thumb to give signs, that means the pitcher has more than four pitches.
sports simple guy
Roy Oswalt is a drop and drive pitcher. What is a drop and drive pitcher? He is a guy who drops and drives. Very simple.
rain mind balls
Something to keep in mind - it's raining lightly. The infield could be very wet on ground balls.
sports years yankees
Yankee pitchers have had great success this year against Cabrera when they get him out.
sports dumb toes
Well, David Eckstein, like most of us, has 20 digits. Ten fingers. Ten toes.
habit easy form
Good habits are as easy to form as bad ones.
sports dumb arms
The reason we call that pitch up and in is because the arms are attached to the shoulder.
funny running baseball
Bob Gibson is the luckiest pitcher I ever saw. He always pitches when the other team doesn't score any runs.
down-and
That pitch wasn't down and in, that pitch was down and up.
way easier pitcher
In many ways, it is easier to hit a pitcher when he is wild.
