Ehh I'm not trying to defend any pitcher
But I think technically their different in their impact on a game. A player watching a ball that MAY NOT be a HR can cause him to turn a 2B into 1B or even getting thrown out. A pitcher pumping his fist? That’s not gonna change the whether he Strike’s out, Walks, or gives up a HR to someone. That being said, I think Sori learned from yesterday and I have absolutely no doubt he’ll keep to his word (or at leas try).

Strikeouts are way more common then HR's
And the only time you really ever see a fist pump by a pitcher is in a big situation when you need thes strikeout. Not EVERY time you strike someone out, like soriano does when he hits a homerun.
by cubsfaninatl on Aug 14, 2008 7:21 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Do you like...
Ken Griffey Jr. or Manny Ramirez? Because they have probably the most blatant “stop and stare” HR poses in baseball… just asking.

Worst back problems are ones that just come on for no apparent reason, and then never seem to go away. Sprains and twists typically heal faster.

as said above…would have been close
throw was high to plate and ramirez dove to the back side of the plate, kind of reaching back to the left for the dish. as he landed and was kind of reaching back, his right knee was slightly pulled in and the landing jarred it to the ground just after the rest of his body. Immediately grabbed for his right lower back.

I know an Astros fan who claims never to have seen them win in person. He was at both losses last week at Wrigley. He says he’s something like 0-30. I’ve got to think that’s nigh on impossible.

oh man
hope it isn’t bad. I had a pretty serious contusion on my thigh and I was out of commission for weeks.
Better than the alternative, I suppose.
Disclaimer: He’s a professional baseball player. I play college ultimate. He’ll have great doctors. I kinda sat around and iced my leg. The point stands though. It takes a while to come back from bad ones.
