[TruffleShuffle]

you would think pujols would have been able to at least put one of those five balls into play.

How does someone throw 5 different pitches with the EXACT SAME ARM SLOT. Crazy

[ConstableRabbit]

Someone at work who claims to be a baseball fan asked why he should be impressed. I was like, uhh... because it's showing him execute 5 pitches at an MLB-level, from the same arm slot? And that it doesn't even show his cutter or splitter?

Someone did the same thing for Mariano Rivera:

I saw this elsewhere a little while back. Awesome effort, could have saved himself the acrobatics with a better route to the ball though.

Holy hell I didn't realize how bad Aaron Hicks has been so far in the majors. 30% k rate, .178 babip, ISO of .015, .118/.238/.132 slash line, 11.4% LD%, 45% GB%. I think it's time he gets sent back down....

[OleMissCub]

So this isn't a photoshop. Wow.

Sun Sports' Tampa Bay Rays reporter Kelly Nash was visiting Fenway Park for the first time when she decided to take a selfie to capture the occasion. Thankfully, the baseball missed her by inches, so she's okay!

You shouldn't have called time out, jerk:

Yeah, I saw the clip tonight where in the 5th he was shaking his arm; came back and struck out the side in the 6th, but that was really worrisome.

Strasburg does the evil "inverted W" doesn't he? Hope he doesn't end up Mark Prior II.

[BeerHere]

Why isn't it simply called an "M"?

For the same reason we don't call upside down M&M's "W&W's". Sheesh!

 

I've often wondered that myself, actually.

No clue who invented the term.
