Danhausen is good, imo but I'm a stupid idiot that's endlessly entertained by gross splat noises speaking of gross splat noises: https://twitter.com/Emman_TheKid/status/1226834708396298247

Is this because of the size of the baseball?

The only difference I can think of is that the baseball being larger might make it more likely to affect the fingers if you try to catch it at full speed or something. https://youtu.be/6v17THaz-mo?t=139 E: Granted that one hit his body first but either way, if someone can stand in that position without gloves, it should be possible to be in the outfield without needing them either Crapple! fucked around with this message at 22:38 on Feb 10, 2020 |

no one in cricket is dumb enough to catch a flying kooka burra to begin with(ok that's entirely true). Also Test Cricket(which is an entirely different beast than T20 Cricket) is less about smashing long range hits and more about strategic hitting to keep the runners alive. I am 1 of 4 americans that enjoy watching Test Cricket. Its perfect 3am insomnia sports.

Yeah that's true. Fielders in baseball are making catches in the outfield much more regularly so there's a wear-and-tear aspect to it.

there's a pretty extensive list of cricket related fatalities out there. Its pretty grody for such a laid back sport.

The only difference I can think of is that the baseball being larger might make it more likely to affect the fingers if you try to catch it at full speed or something. I mean, cursory research also indicates that hand and finger injuries are somewhat common in cricket. Most finger injuries in baseball seem to afflict batters getting hit by pitches too.

IcePhoenix posted:can you link me the thing on exit velocity I couldn't find it If you type in "ball speed off the bat in baseball" and do the same for cricket there's an assortment of random links and forum posts with some numbers. I don't have like, a study or anything unfortunately although that would be interesting.

Don't you hit the ball into the dirt playing cricket? My experience with Cricket is seeing a few gifs and walking by some exchange students playing it at college but I feel like generally the ball gets spiked into the dirt and then bounces, that has to take a decent amount of oomph off of the ball. Everyone's goal in baseball is to get it way the gently caress out there, so the "good" hits are in the air for 75-90 meters (mental math so I might be off). I definitely bent a few fingers back uncomfortably hard trying to catch balls being lobbed to me without a glove, usually cleaning up after practice or something. A full speed throw from one baseman to another (very common) would definitely snap a finger if it got isolated. I'm assuming we aren't talking about the catcher at all because catching 100 balls a night at those speeds would grind your bones into dust over time. They have extra-large extra-thick gloves compared to everyone else.

The DDT show I went to at KFC Hall, Cody was in the semi-main against the big third generation sumo guy to build towards them teaming up. It was not exactly a masterclass but it was probably the best Cody Hall match Ive seen because it was just two ridiculously huge men slamming into each other and looking dissatisfied. After the show I went up to Cody and he was actually surprisingly friendly, almost astonishingly so, and I thought "maybe Cody Hall is on the path to being not total garbage some day." Mistakes were made. He is loving huge IRL btw, I'm almost 6'3" and he completely dwarfed me.

Dude made a joke about someone having "yellow fever" and followed it up by saying "Look, I'm dating a Japanese woman, it's okay" That's on top of the super racist Corona Virus stuff, I've got friends in NYC who are getting mean as hell comments thrown at them because they're asian and wearing masks in public.

In my experience he's overfriendly at merch. Like if you don't approach him he'll yell stuff like "hey dude, aren't you going to come say hi?" or "it's me, Cody Hall" at you. Which is more than a little embarrassing when you're trying to navigate a congested Korakuen merch area and avoid Cody Hall.

So 'Complete Dumbass' sort of rear end in a top hat, not 'Would hunt you for sport if he could' like Brock Lesnar or 'may literally not be able to comprehend your existence as an individual' like Vince McMahon.
