Okay, while it's not a really funny situation, I'm LOL @ Dan's "bad form" comment.

And ...

Notice how the batter takes OFF after the kick.

What a chickens**t move in all phases!

He took off the go after the pitcher. He had just been hit by a pitch so he kicked the catcher so he wouldn't get grabbed from behind as he ran out the the mound.

Speaking of sharing things.... heard an interesting comment from the stands yesterday.

I guess there's a rule that limits the number of players that can be involved in a run-down i.e. only the infield can take part... Learn something everyday....

Yeah, those fans know the rules inside-out. Whenever I'm in doubt, I just ask the fans what the rule is.

I usually poll the fans as well as the coaches and make calls accordingly. Except of course a tie at first base which, of course, goes to the batter.

There is a rule that limits the number of defensive players that can be involved in a rundown. There can only be 9 at TOP so 9 is the limit.

I figured he was taking off after the pitcher ... but in that part of the clip it's kinda funny, the way it looked: "POW ... oh sh*t ... Mommyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"

Howcome when the bullpens empty, they'll both run 300 feet side-by-side but they never start fighting until they hit the infield? Can somebody 'splain that to me?

I loved the one with Nolan Ryan pummeling Ventura. That one was always a classic!

Yep..... getting nine hits in a game off of Ryan should qualify Ventura
for the HOF.
