THIS is how a professional athlete, from ANY OTHER sport, should throw out a first pitch.
They just should.

Yup, still hung up on this thing.


How about this one?

He did a Carl Lewis.

The one that I really don't understand is Denard Robinson. How can you spend the majority of your life throwing a ball at a high level, then suddenly look like you never threw anything in your life?

Hard to imagine that kind of pitching excellence.
Will be interested how he does against the Yanks tonight.

Not impressed at all so far. Has given up 4 hits and 4 runs through 3 innings. Granted it's a small sample size.

3 closers to end games now with Kintzler/Madson/Doolittle

Kintsler was barrelling in Bryant. he did not like it at all.

Byrnes raving about the movement on his fastball.

They gave Madsen/Madson the 8th.

Cubs were swinging to tie it up vs all 3.

Several of them about came outta their shoes with youthful wild misses.

Harold believes Dusty could mix them all up to situations from here out.

Eachof them allowed a baserunner, but got out of the inning easily.

Pretty stout if Dusty isn't greedy and burns them all out.

Which he is well-known to do.

Very good educational stuff every morning on MLB tv if you're ever looking to see some interesting analysis.

They should get their best player back in a couple of weeks though. That should help.
