i was recently accepted into a couple of ncaa groups so i want to refine my skills.
i'll be patient...

There was an awsome illustration in tonights ballgame. Situation:
Pitcher Tom Glavine bunted the ball in front of home plate.
The Cardinals' catcher quickly retrieved the baseball and threw to 2B for the force out.
The Cardinals' SS caught the ball and then dropped it during the transfer from glove to hand.
There was exclusive video footage of the 2BU demo of the MLB mechanic.
I hope you caught that because it was quite an impressive way to sell the OUT call.
