Why do you throw that? -- nm - zork Jun 13, 08:00 8
- 1) it's funny. 2) It's probably more of a mind-fuck to the batter than a 75mph normal pitch. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 13, 08:29
- because you play first base and you’re down by 13. -- nm - mafic Jun 13, 08:04 5
  - Also it's pretty hard to hit that out. -- nm - Reagen Jun 13, 08:19 3
    - I'm a huge Ripken Jr. fan...in the leadup to him breaking Gehrig's record, one of the stories was he would set up a tee at home plate and hit balls - Will Hunting Jun 13, 08:30 2
      - I will sell you this baseball card with his name misspelled for a mere $2,632. -- nm - Swilcan Baron Jun 13, 08:35 1
        
        Sorry, I have about 2,632 of them already. - Will Hunting Jun 13, 08:37
  - I do enjoy seeing the position players have a go at it during blowouts. -- nm - Swilcan Baron Jun 13, 08:10
- lol that was my thought as well. I mean Im not complaining, I very much enjoyed the Yanks teeing off on the Cubs this weekend. -- nm - Jovian Jun 13, 08:01
