GLOVE TO SECOND BASE SPEED-VIDEO

[WAHOONBOX]

I LOVE BASEBALL.....PLAYED FOR YEARS FROM LITTLE LEAGUE TO PONY LEAGUE AND HIGH SCHOOL.....I PITCHED...NEVER WAS REALLY GOOD AT .....FASTBALL WAS MY MAIN MENU...

I LEARNED A FEW THINGS THOUGH AFTER MY BASEBALL DAYS....THINGS I SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAUGHT WHEN I WAS YOUNG.....ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IN ANY SPORT IS ....S-P-E-E-D. IF YOU HAVE SPEED THERE IS A SPORT FOR YOU.

TAKE FOR INSTANCE THE CATCHER. IF HE HAS GOOD "GLOVE -TO- SECOND BASE SPEED" AS IT IS CALLED .....HE WILL BE NOTICED...AND IF HE CAN FIRE THAT BALL TO THE BAG AND THROW RUNNERS OUT HE WILL BE RECOGNIZED.

SPEED. I ASK MYSELF...DO I STILL HAVE THE SPEED IT TAKES TO PLAY IN THE MAJORS? DO I STILL HAVE THE SPEED IT TAKES TO WORK A PROFESSIONAL COCKPIT? IS MY REACTION TIME FROM ONE ROD TO ANOTHER STILL FAST ENOUGH TO MAKE THE TEAM? ADMITTEDLY I AIN'T 26 ANYMORE...BUT.... THE BEAST OFFERED ME THE PIT ONCE AGAIN ON THE RUN-OFF FOR ONE MORE SEASON 2010.....


YOU BE DA JUDGE HERE....HERE IN THIS VIDEO FROM BLOODBATH HALLOWEEN WEEKEND 2009, I AM ABOUT TO CHANGE OUT THE BAIT ON THE SNIPER PLANER ROD.....WHEN A WAHOO PILES ONTO THE LEFT LONG....NOW PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE LEFT LONG AREA FOR YOU WILL SEE THE EXPLOSION ON THE BAIT......I AM FOCUSING ON MY TASK AT HAND....NOW LISTEN FOR CAPT BRIAN TO HOLLER OUT "LEFT LONG LEFT LONG"!!!

MY GLOVE TO SECOND BASE SPEED?????.....I MEAN THE REACTION SPEED FROM MY SNIPER ROD TO THE LEFT LONG ROD IN THE CHAIR ONCE BRIAN MAKES THE CALL?????? A MERE 1:03 SECONDS.........MY MOVIE PROGRAM GIVES ME THIS MEASUREMENT....FLASH GORDON MY ASS....WHAT ABOUT FLASHBOX?

DID I MAKE THE HOOK-UP?? .......UHHHH NOPE....I MISSED HIS ASS.... OR RATHER THE FISH MISSED THE HOOK....BUT I WAS THERE....NO DILLY DALLYING....NO SITTING AROUND FINGER UP MY ASS ....NOW BOASTINGLY.... I FEEL I AM JUST AS FAST AS FLASH GORDON HIMSELF.....YEP I MISSED HIM ON THE LEFT LONG... BUT I WAS A BLUR MOVING TO THE ROD! AND THEN THE EL CAPITANO PICKED HIM OFF ON THE BRIDGE POLE.

ARE YOU FAST ENOUGH? THE HESITANTCY OF ONE AT THE MOMENT OF THE FIRST SLIGHTEST ROD BEND MAY COST YOU A FISH.....THE HORROR OF THAT! BUT THEN AGAIN, I HAVE THE BEAST UPTOP......

How much do you think a Marlboro and a Bud would slow you down?

How much do you think a Marlboro and a Bud would slow you down?

NEVER TOUCHED THE NICOTINE....BUT MY GLOVE TO SECOND BASE ROLEX SPEED DRAMATICALLY DECREASED BEGINNING IN 1994....AHHH THE POWER OF MILK.

Where is that Milk video? Does a body good!!! Looks like a swing and a miss but Capt. Brian was there to give you a Can of Corn!! Sweet video Box!!!

Your POP time (thats the new lingo for glove to 2nd) is still big league material. Keep it up. Great video.

Dang that fast at 59, can't imagine what you were like in your 20's

[Squidnation]

Alex and I call that a 1.2 10. A three minute mile and 4.2 in the 40 yard dash don't mean shit in the cockpit. what ya need is a 1.2 10 ft speed. Like a gazalle. It also helps to know what rod holder the left long rod is in Nice video Marty.

[SNAKE EYES SPORTFISHING]

GREAT VIDEO BOX, BUT CHECK OUT THE REACTION TIME FROM THE SPLASH TILL THE TIME CAPT BRIAN YELLS LEFT LONG, THEN BOXMAN GETS TO THE REEL BEFORE THE RIGGER POPS,

YEP I KNOW WHAT I WANT TO BE WHEN I GROW UP....

THANKS MARTY.....
