Nah. Just when he pitches from the stretch.

Makes Fydrich (RIP) seem normal.

Long ass article about Ichiro up on espn. He's basically the new Ricky.

Former teammates all have favorite Ichiro stories, about how he carries his bats in a custom humidor case to keep out moisture, how in the minors he'd swing the bat for 10 minutes every night before going to sleep, or wake up some mornings to swing alone in the dark from 1 to 4 a.m. All the stories make the same point: He has methodically stripped away everything from his life except baseball. Former first baseman Mike Sweeney, who got close to Ichiro in Seattle, tells one about getting a call from an old teammate who'd had an off-day in New York. You're not gonna believe this, the guy began. He'd brought along his wife and they walked through Central Park, thrilled to be together in such a serene place. Far off in the distance, at a sandlot field with an old backstop that looked leftover from the 1940s, they saw a guy playing long toss. The big leaguer did the quick math and figured the distant stranger was throwing 300 feet on the fly. Curious, he walked closer. The guy hit balls into the backstop, the powerful shotgun blast of real contact familiar to any serious player. He became impressed, so he got even closer, close enough to see.

The man working out alone in Central Park was Ichiro.

No look, no tell pick off. Dang, I love my Yankees but this play was a thing of beauty.

Thought I saw somewhere he goes to the stretch regardless of situation. Might be wrong, but maybe not.

I was just fucking with irul, I have no idea actually. Never heard of the guy Raudes before I saw that gif.

It's a nice play, but Ice is right, it's not like they pulled a serious fast one, the guy was just caught sleeping.

SUCK IT CHOWDS!

**Brock Landers** · 03-22-2018, 08:58 PM

Yankees look good unfortch. Will be great when they take a big dump on irul's face later this year

**ex-powderbroker** · 03-27-2018, 09:47 PM

Cards and Jays was unbelievable tonight. Tim Raines on hand to throw out the first ball, Michael Kingsbury was around with his gold medal, too.

Late in the game the Let's Go Expos chants started for the Jays and Vlad jr responded with a walk-off, 2 outs into the ninth with a no-doubter ending a 0-0 tie. The crowd was as loud as anywhere, it sucks there's no team here anymore.

ole, ole ole ole

Giants snake bit again. Three big pitchers out. And they start their season in 'shitty' Chavez Ravine.

Yanks Jays tomorrow. Fuck those Canadians and all their politeness. And it’s a hat, not a toque.

Oh, and thanks a lot for that Beiber prick. Assholes.
