Tom,

If you get to come to the AFA Nationals, I will show you 3
different girls and let you ask them what I personally do.
After I am 100PC sure it is me receiving these stares and
exaggerated expression of disbelief. I call time, walk to
the pitcher's circle, sweep the rubber, face the pitcher,
and show her an area the size of a envelope box, right about
my belt buckle and explain "that if I continue to receive this
type of reaction, that will be your strike zone for the rest
of this game."
They don't usually stare my way anymore. One is in college
at ULL, second pitcher on the squad and probably ULL's best
hitter. Holly Tankersley.
