Spin Rate


oh! but not high enough!
it is on the way down too soon!!!!

that circle on the mask of the catcher is where it is now…


it all becomes normal.
Over at Dodger Stadium, Pujols looks sooo comfortable leaning over the dugout’s life protecting fence.
He gets so intense, you would think he was going to go for a mound visit or shift the defence!
The Padres and the Dodgers are still playing each other even days afterward.
The Dodgers look tired.
The Padres looked bruised up.
That series will have long-term repercussions.
That same weekend and the following day, MLB players opened up the hearts and souls of america the same way the New York Yankees did after September 11th.
Just a beautiful vibe.
The players are responding to the live human energy well.
This is a performance art, afterall.
Lots of good rivalries.
We sympathize for pitchers.
and but so then:
if we could watch every game we wanted to, it would go like this:
all San Diego Padres vs Los Angeles Dodgers games, because, well, this promises to be an unmatched rivalry
all New York Yankees vs Toronto Blue Jays games because this is the platinum test for the Jays, and this is where we will go to find out how good of a team they are
all New York Mets vs Atlanta Braves games because that is going to be some kinda doubles and base-running bonanza
benches cleared
coach suspension
96mph fastball going behind Bregman’s head
The Mets seem that they are going to be exciting.
The Reds seem cool.
The Padres seem fearless.
Tampa Bay won’t go down without a fight.
The White Sox?
But really, the LA Dodgers win the World Series.
