Since we're doing little league chat, for my birthday my wife bought me this display case for my 3 little league home run balls.   I still remember my dad booking it from the opposite field bleachers into the woods to retrieve that grand slam ball.

After every pitch the mount moves away from the batter at ~6"/min. Faster working pitchers get an effectively faster pitch.

Kevlar v2.0 posted:32 CS in 95 attempts from 2008-2010. I never understood how someone so fast could be so bad at stealing bases. I'm guessing the ability to get good leads and break at the right time dwarfs the time saved from running a couple MPH faster than another guy.

They are being paid millions of dollars to play baseball and don't have to give a poo poo about how they look and I think it's fantastic. Colby Rasmus should be looked up to in this regard, more mullets well we're at it.

Sydin posted:As does the NBA, and the NHL, and pretty much any other major sport. Baseball is just terrible at marketing their players in general. And then when Harper tried to self promote himself last year, he got completely and utterly poo poo on from every direction. Guys like Kershaw/Harper/Trout/Bryant/etc should be plastered everywhere as the faces of the brand. The NBA is incredible at promoting its stars, what the hell?
