Excuse the hijack, but I have to post this. Watching the Cards/Pirates game. Hrabosky was bashing Laroche for his pre pitch ritual, he points the bat toward the pitcher lkind of like Ryan Howard. Hrabosky says, "Howard can do that, he's the MVP, this guy can't even hit .100, it looks bad when he does it." The next pitch Laroch takes Wainwright deep for a 3-run HR. It was great.
