Durham -

Yes, people have problems with timing, but they will have that regardless of whether they use hammer or point or face side and point.

The problem is that when you take your eyes off the field, you're playing with fire. Especially when your BU might be spacing out at the end of a DH or something, and coming out of his lock in with eyes and mind wandering. End of story.

Let's say you point to the side, and then all the sudden there is

a) A delayed steal of home
b) The catcher wants another ball
c) The pitcher wipes his hand to his mouth
d) A catch/no cath on a 3rd strike

But hey, at least when you face the side you can see what's REALLY important. (sarcasm detector reaching level 9 now)

a) The hot mom sitting in the first row.
b) Knitting grandma
c) That the coach is inside the dugout while sitting on his bucket.
d) Is that on-deck batter using a donut (for LLDan only)
e) Is that 1st/3rd base coach in the box? (depending on LHB or RHB)
f) That mom didn't use a pooper scooper on her dog and this is a public park!

etc. etc. etc.

Eyes on the field, except for maybe reason A, but just between innings cause that way I get to fully appreciate. Then you can think about

1) "Does she dig me for my mechanics?"
2) "I hope its not Skip's wife."
3) "Can she see my inner beauty, as in, my sweet West Vest Gold?"
4) "Let me wipe the sweat off my forehead to impress her."
