I guess because during regular games all there really doing is practicing and there seeing how other teams play, but i go to them anyways...Why Japanese pitcher has pinpoint control?
Because it's just the beginning of the season. It' doesn't get interesting until the end of the first half of the season. When it's after the All-star break...that's when everyone's standings are more complete and knowing if you're going to the playoffs or not!At what point of the year will the "trade Manny" talks begin?
Cause it is.. Baseball has become pitcher ball. It is painfully boring. No one steals bases or slides into third, nothing exciting happening at all. They all just stand out there, and the pictcher does the work.How do I transfer my yahoo account to another account I own?
It should get better when it warms up.Who was the 1st left handed pitcher to strike out 20 batters?
because they areWhat is the "proper" way to swing a baseball bat?
Because the true fan of the sport is a dying breed. Too many attendees are "entertainment" fans who are distracted by all the "doo-dads" (restaurants, stadium tv, cell phones, bars, etc.) to get caught up in the game. It's really sad how the game made the success of baseball possible and in the end, suffers the most because of todays attitude toward attending games.Oh, in Philly, it's simply because we are wising up. They keep peddling out blase millionaires, and overrated scrubs, as major league quality.
But all the Phillies will ever be is a bottom-rung Triple-A club on the field as long as they are owned by the embezzlers that are running them while separating loyalists from their money.
After the first few weeks, which NL and AL teams look more World Series material?
depends on the team, location, weather, etc. Boston has filled the stadium every home game since '03 because they have a rabid following and they have been successful. A city like Pittsburgh or Milwaukee doesn't have that due to poor teams. Although PNC Park is beautiful!I am going to take a guess because I don't waste my time watching sporting events on TV in persons. My guess? As I recall many of the games during baseball season are during the week. And most people work during the week so the stadiums would be half empty...at least.
Marlins side at dolphins stadium?
Because there are so many games, especially during the week, that people can't always go. On weekends, attendance usually picks up, unless you live in Canada.Will a 54 year old Roger Clemens need a walker to get to the mound?
because cities that have awful teams hoped one day they'd have good teams and big crowds - ergo they built big-'ol stadiums for them.Baltimore, Texas, Atlanta and Colorado fell victim to this. So they built 50,000 seat, baseball only parks. Baltimore, Texas, Atlanta and Colorado at one time filled those places up. Now, those four teams are barrel teams playing in 50,000 seat ballparks in front of a modest 20,000 (oh yeah, don't forget the Mariners).
Pittsburgh, Milwaukee and Cleveland went the other direction. They built Wrigley sized parks - 37, 38,000 maybe. So, if the team sucks, 20,000 people doesn't look too bad in a 38,000 seat park. If the team's good...well you have 38,000.
Minnesota is fixing this problem as well. 60+ thousand seat football stadium...25, 30 thousand a night. Looks awful at the MetroDump. Once they open the 39,000 seat Puckett Field (which they finally are going to do), 25, 30 thousand a night will almost look like a full house.
