Definitely not Kerry Wood. That's Wade Miller.

"Guys, come on! Just one pitcher! Please! I swear I won't swing at the first one! Guys! Guys?"

 

On a different note, I fully endorse Soriano's decision to wear his socks properly. Some of the other Cubs could do well to follow his fine example.

Agreed.

 

On a similar note, when will the Shawon Dunston long stirrups come back?

I hope never. Wasn't Maddux using those things?

Maddux wore the old style sock-stirrup combo. Dunston wore a blue band held up with elastic, basically.

Prior used to pull his socks up high and wear the stirrups too IIRC.

The error is from the original source, not mine. :D

God I LOVE seeing prior. And soriano. Welcome to chicago guy.

[Careless]

they really are focusing their cameras on Soriano this year.

 

I can give you 136 million reasons why.

Please do, I could use a new fleet of yachts

I do recall him wearing his socks up high.

In the past he's done that during the regular season and wore his pants "down" (insert joke here) when in spring training.

 

He hasn't been doing much in spring training the last 3 years, so that's why it looks different.

That's how he rolls! And yes, kudos to Prior, Soriano and Dempster for doing it the right way. We don't need the Maddux stirrups...eww.

Lanky guys like me like the baggy pants down to the shoes look. It hides the chicken legs.

Your old fleet's just not cutting it anymore, huh?

Heh, I have chicken legs too (cross country :oops:) but I loved high socks too much.

[Balsa]

I always thought that Maddux looked classy in that combo of his.

I agree. I used to wear my socks up in high school, but then changed senior year to pants down to the shoes.
