Maybe it's just me, but I occassionally see other pitchers track the flight of the pitch too.
Aims at Renteria?
Looks well pleased?
Come on...
Honestly, not one of your best efforts SDS, unless your are holding a fresh diploma from the Jim Wolf Mindreading Academy.
I agree it was probably intentional, but at his head? IMHO, I don't believe anyone would be going for a head shot.
