THAT. RULES.
Great observation on this from Craig Calcaterra of Shysterball:
After watching it, though, I can't help but wonder: if the key to slowing down the perceived break of a curveball is to view it head-on instead of with peripheral vision, why didn't Tony Batista hit better than he did?
Woah, that's awesome. I take back some of the things I've said about you Bergls being good for nothing brainiacs and womanizers.
